About this property

NH Country Retreat Family Reunions & Weddings

Charming country retreat in Lakes Region of New Hampshire with the White Mountain National Forest nearby. Perfect for family vacation, reunion, or wedding venue.

Spacious, bright, year-round living space looks out onto 500+ acres of family's fields and woodlands. Listen to the gurgle of the Mill Brook as you relax at Brookland Farm. Enjoy your morning coffee on a sunny terrace, or, at the end of the day relax with a cocktail on the screen porch as you take in the sunset over Mt. Whiteface and Passaconway.

The home itself is a 3000 sq ft, 1 and 1/2 story renovated, 200+ yearold farmhouse with a 10 beds (3 queens (one with reduced privacy), 5 twins, 1 single, and a pullout queen couch) and a modern eat-in kitchen (5 burner gas range, dishwasher, stainless appliances, wood floors). Laundry, family genealogy room, and one bedroom are adjacent to the kitchen. Highspeed wireless Internet, digital TV with DVD player. At the far end of house is a big room (23' by 24') for larger gatherings with a fireplace, dining room table (seats 12), and nearby screen porch.

Sprawling layout accommodates a large number of guests (12 maximum) to enjoy both indoor and outdoor entertaining no matter the season. Surrounded by gently rolling fields and ancient stone walls, the property is peaceful, quiet, and beautifully landscaped with numerous flower beds.

Outdoor living space includes a terrace with a gas grill, an adjacent screen porch with mountain views, and a bungalow with 2 hammocks to relax in. In our nearby private pond, enjoy a relaxing swim or go fishing (pond stocked with small mouth bass).

Event flyer and pricing furnished upon request.

Miles of private trails cross our woodlands and allow guests to enjoy hiking, birdwatching, biking (mountain or road), XC skiing, and snowshoeing right out the back door. Canoeing at nearby Bearcamp Pond*. Or, if you just want to be lazy - croquet, horseshoes.

Our 4th Year!
You are a marketing expert. Make this description of a stay at a vacation home sound wonderful. This was my family’s 4th stay at the beautiful Tamworth farmhouse and it doesnt ever disappoint! Hikes by beautiful streams and bridges, tubing the rolling hills of snow, ice skating, and then back in time to a fireplace and wood stove with the whole family playing Scrabble and building puzzles. I just know we are making memories for a lifetime with this annual trip. Gratitude to the Alt family, for graciously sharing your legacy with us.

Wedding stay
The property and surrounding area is just gorgeous. The house is an older home with a bit of charm and was comfortable. We (6 adults and 2 teenagers) were in town for a wedding at Whiteface Hollow and this was the perfect location. It’s less than 5 minutes to drive there. All in all it was very nice.
