Looking a little like the house from Grant Wood's famous American Gothic – and with a pared-down rustic interior to match – this extraordinary rural retreat is perfect for those looking to escape the trappings of modern life, if only for a little while. Spend your time here enjoying the quintessential countryside experience without neglecting luxurious touches and timeless style. We love the vintage kitchen, the light painted wooden floors, and the fireplaces in almost every room. All of these details combine to turn this sympathetically restored farmhouse into a warm and cosy home where you can take your time to rest, explore and appreciate the stunning views by the fireside with a glass of red. If heading into town won't shatter the illusion of having travelled back to the 1930s – there are plenty of dining options twenty-five minutes away in Poughkeepsie. You'll find locally sourced seasonal offerings at Farmers and Chefs, farm-fresh American favourites at Poughkeepsie Ice House, French fare at Brasserie 292 and Tuscan classics at Cosimo's.

Local guide
About Rhinebeck
While Upstate New York is used to being overshadowed by the city, a trip up the Hudson brings you to some charming towns and beautiful scenery. The slower pace of life here is an excellent antidote to the frenetic energy of Manhattan and Brooklyn. The lush, ever-changing landscape is an attraction in itself, but the towns of the Hudson Valley offer a healthy dose of culture and history. This area...
