River Barn CT, 1 Benson Ln, Essex, CT 06426, US

HistoryThe farm has evolved over the past six years to become Flat Rock Farm with its seven suri alpaca, luxuriously eclectic guest house, and gardens that are still in development. We have opened the School for American Handweaving on the property with four (and counting) antique looms in the outer barn and classes in numerous traditional handcrafts. For classes, meals are included. Please check out our website for recent developments!SpecialtiesFarm stay with luxury accommodations. Flat Rock Farm is a working alpaca and chicken farm with a guest house for visitors. There are two bedrooms and two smaller baths, ideally suited to a family as the downstairs bedroom offers two twin sized beds and the upstairs master includes a king sized bed and palladian windows on either end of the building for a magnificently spacious feel. Flat Rock Farm is a quiet country retreat perfect for summer beach goers and winter chefs alike. The kitchen is fully stocked and is equipped with cookware and accessories from the finest kitchenware retailers. In the summer enjoy the outdoor deck or adirondack chairs overlooking the young orchard. In winter light a fire in the wood burning stove and listen to your favorite stations on Pandora over the surround sound system. Wifi networks enable constant connectivity but the setting and the rustic feel of a converted barn will take you away from it all. Two night minimum stay, fresh eggs always included
