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.

Family Weekend fun
We had plenty of beds for the 9 of us and the layout of the house was explained well by Chris so no surprises there. The only glitch we had was that 2 of our members have walking problems and even though there were beds on the first floor, one had a high step into the bedroom and the other was blocked so that a walker would not fit through. I should have mentioned the ambulatory problem to Chris beforehand considering the age of the home. Also the beds on the first floor are quite high and the ones on the second floor are normal height. There is a step stool in the upstairs bath.

Great time
Once we figured out how to make the bedrooms work (the three upstairs are accessible through the first bedroom so people in the second and third bedrooms have to walk through the first and second to get to the second and third) we had a great time. It was 5 miles from the wedding venue at the Preserve at Chocorua so that was convenient. There is a great collection of cassette tapes and a cool throw-back stereo system which was fun.

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.

2nd stay and will return!
Farmhouse charm on the most amazing property! This is 2nd time staying here (my parents, my family, and my sister's family) and like last time, we loved tubing the day away with our kids and playing Pictionary, building puzzles, and having dinner in the great room. The weather was oddly warm this year, so I ventured into the hiking trails on the property - words do not capture that beautiful creeks and waterfalls with well marked and cleared paths. This house is truly a gem!

The property itself is lovely and has great views. It's close to main roads to get all over New Hampshire. The old farmhouse is very large so there is lots of room to spread out. While it has ten beds, it's more like 5 bedrooms versus 7 and the ones upstairs are continuous in a hallway. It was less modern than I expected. The owner was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with.

Want to feel like you are in The Shire from the Lord of the Rings? …then this spot is for you. Quiet, clean and plenty of room in and around the house. You can feel the history of the property the minute you walk in. It was a perfect location to get away and enjoy the beautiful landscapes of a small New Hampshire town.

Wonderful property for large family
Chris' s property is a big, rambling house perfectly suited for a large family or group. One end of the house has an office/bedroom/bath suite that was perfect for the one family member who had to work during vacation, and for putting little ones down for a midday rest away from everyone else! The kitchen is well-stocked, the beds were comfortable, and the property itself is lovely and feels very remote, even though it is not so far from town. We did not take advantage of the trails on the property this time, but would love to go back in autumn and do so. There was plenty of room to spread out indoors and have intimate conversations, play games, read to the littles or read by oneself. It felt like we were guests in a well-loved family home. Overall, a lovely place for a big family. We would stay there again.

Perfect Pandemic Vacation Spot!
Because of COVID, my family hasn't even left our homes other than necessary activities related to work for over a year. We needed a vacation, but wanted to be responsible. This beautiful property was perfect! We tubed, ice skated, xc skied, drank hot chocolate playing chess by the fire place and enjoyed family dinners in the great room w our pod. Being of a more spoiled generation, we struggled w the fireplace (thank goodness for my dad's know how and the super responsive host) but once we figured it out - it made tge charm even more special. Nothing like our normal life so the kids thought it was amazing! This property feels like another family's treasure that they welcomed you into-warm, charming, filled with and a place to make memories.
