Upon arriving at the house, the outside was nothing like the picture that we questioned if we were actually at the correct house. Upon entering and looking around the whole house it was one of the most filthy we have ever stayed at through VRBO. We always look at all the reviews prior to booking, and we’re very disappointed that the majority of the reviews did not indicate that the house was not clean. In some areas of the house it is so dark that you wouldn’t even know if it was clean or not. The lower level was very cold, while the main floor would be very hot. They do provide a movable radiator in the master bedroom, which does work very well although they should add one to the second bedroom in the lower level. They should also replace the pots and pans in the kitchen as everything does stick to them. The Wi-Fi goes in and out and is not strong either. On a positive note, the fireplace was amazing and the beds were pretty comfortable. If you are stickler for cleanliness, we would not recommend staying here.
We had the most wonderful stay at Baby Barn. It was everything we’d hoped for our big birthday celebrations, from the architecture, the stunning views and cosy ambience. All of it, truly exceptional! It was comfortable, warm, and we also really appreciated the provision of firewood making life much easier not having to lug any from home. We will definitely be back!
This is a quintessential Vermont property! Restored barn with lovely fireplaces, comfortable beds, an INCREDIBLE master shower, and enough space for a family! We had the most incredible time in front of the family room fireplace each morning and evening. Cooked our Thanksgiving feast and everything was available that we needed, even a potato peeler : ) So many books, magazines, puzzles, etc, we didn't even need to bring our own. Londonderry market and liquor store just a 5 mi drive away, 20 mins to Manchester and the shops/outlets. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you Peter for the lovely accommodations, it was a true GEM!
The Baby Barn was a wonderful stay for me and my family. It was an extraordinarily unique home with no shortage of attention to detail, all with an idyllic backdrop of the majestic Vermont mountain side. The fireplace was warming and welcoming, and the kitchen was a cozy place to create a meal to remember in.
The Little Barn was unique and truly gave us the Vermont Vibe. We had never been to Vermont and were there for a family wedding. Our accommodations were perfect for what we required. The distance to the venue and everything we wanted to be near was just right !! We were very relaxed and comfortable in the living room and sitting on the back porch admiring the peace and quiet and the beauty !! Thank you !
The property is in a beautiful setting. The house has old dusty taxidermy in it. In general a dusty home which is tough on allergies. We did however enjoy our stay and it was so close to a wedding that we attended at Magic Mountain.
There are so many wonderful things about this property. From the moment you arrive, you realize that every aspect was thoughtfully, purposefully, and intentionally designed. The result is a piece of paradise in South Londonderry, Vermont. Truly, a home away from home.
Just want to say that if you ever find yourself in a natural disaster, try and find people as amazing as the owner and caretaker of the Baby Barn. They could not have been kinder or more helpful when we found ourselves stranded by the floods in Vt this week. The accommodations were charming, the view spectacular, and the esprit de corp of the locals was exceptional.
Exactly what we wanted when seeking to disconnect for a week. So much open space around the property to relax and admire. Loved the house itself too!
We had a great time staying at the Baby Barn. It was perfect for our group - 5 adults and 3 young kids. The decor really sets the appropriate VT vibe, and the views are absolutely stunning. It was easy to find and felt very private. I loved being able to open the doors in the bedrooms and smell the morning mountain air while getting ready for my day.
We have stayed here with friends on a number of trips now and it’s always great! Perfect for a small group of friends and family!
The home, with its picturesque views, peaceful surroundings, and warm rustic charm does not disappoint! We walked into the home and were immediately excited for our stay. The floor to ceiling stone fireplace, surrounded by the wall of windows, created a perfect backdrop to our Christmas celebration. We unfortunately had our time cut short, due to a storm that affected most of the country, and left many in the area without power. The host, Peter, his caretakers, and neighbors, could not have been more helpful, communicative, and down right neighborly. While we weren’t able to enjoy this beautiful home the entire trip, we have some great memories and a really fun story. Don’t hesitate to book this home to make your own Vermont memories!
We loved our stay at the Baby Barn and highly recommended it. My wife and I like to find unique rentals around New England, and this one is amazing. The great room with floor to ceiling windows is the show stopper. We loved making breakfast and dinner in the kitchen. The master suite downstairs was comfortable with beautiful views. Overall the property is so special and peaceful. We look forward to coming back!
This is by far one of the best rentals I have ever stayed-in. There were three Architects among us who loved the property and the kids had a great time too. Will definitely be coming back and daydreaming about someday owning a similar home!
This was my second visit to the Baby Barn and it did not disappoint!! Gorgeous foliage views from the grounds and inside the barn, best fireplace ever, spotless and well stocked. We will be back again!
A gorgeous home in a beautiful location. Everything I could have asked for.
Peter's house is very cute and rustic. A great weekend getaway in Vermont and wonderful for fall foliage with the rolling hills in front of the house. Plenty of space for our group of 7 and 4 dogs. Highly recommend.
Very comfortable! Very relaxing ! Just perfect !
This is a beautiful and family friendly location. The property is stunning and it felt like we were at home. We even had a chance to meet the property owner. Would absolutely book this property again!
Our family of four had a very nice stay, my children (3 & 7) loved the outdoors and views of the mountains. The layout of the house is great, the kids went to sleep and my husband and I could stay up and enjoy some quiet time without disrupting them. The location is great, we did some exploring and spent a day in Manchester. Such a beautiful area! The kids are already asking to go back.
