This is the kind of cosy holiday home we daydream about. It’s set in 8 acres of open meadows and babbling brooks, surrounded by the rich landscape of the Catskill Mountains. There are ski slopes just a ten-minute drive away, and you’ll have your pick of hiking trails. There’s a hot tub and a fire pit, with a splendid area for alfresco dining on the deck. We love the writing nook in the loft and the fireplace you can curl up around. Though it feels a million miles from civilisation, you’ll be just a thirteen-minute drive from Margrateville and its shops and restaurants.

Home truths

    We recommend bringing a car. In winter, a four-wheel drive is recommended to handle the snow and gravel roads.

    Well-behaved dogs are welcome to join you during your stay. Check with your host for more information.

    There is construction ongoing next door from Monday-Friday. The work is generally finished by 4pm.

    There are stairs to climb at this home, so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.

    There’s a workspace for those needing to catch up on emails during their stay.

    While not every bedroom or bathroom has been photographed, we expect the style and standard to be consistent with the rest of the home.

About Phoenicia
