Quiet Vermont Barn Retreat on three private acres in Manchester

Elliott Barn at Meadow & Mountain:

Set on the same quiet property as Gilbride House, Elliott Barn offers a comfortable and private Vermont stay with its own distinct character. Thoughtfully designed with a simple, relaxed feel, the space works well for couples, small families, or guests looking for a quieter retreat close to Manchester.

Surrounded by open land and mountain air, the property offers a peaceful setting that feels removed while still being conveniently located near town. Guests can enjoy outdoor seating, open space to unwind, and quiet evenings under the stars. A firepit seating area and outdoor grill make it easy to enjoy summer nights and relaxed meals outside.

Located in Manchester, the barn provides easy access to local restaurants, shops, hiking trails, and year-round outdoor recreation while maintaining a calm, low-traffic atmosphere.

Summer in Manchester is especially active, with nearby access to the Vermont Summer Festival Horse Show in East Dorset, located approximately 8 miles (about 15 minutes) away. The Dorset Theatre Festival and Southern Vermont Arts Center also offer performances, exhibitions, and seasonal events throughout the summer months.

Winter in Manchester offers convenient access to several well-known ski destinations, including Stratton Mountain (approximately 25 minutes), Bromley Mountain (15 minutes), Magic Mountain (30 minutes), and Okemo Mountain (about 1 hour).

The Historic Town of Manchester also offers a wide variety of restaurants, shopping, golf, fly fishing, falconry experiences, spa services, and outdoor activities throughout the year.

This is a place designed to be easy, quiet, and comfortable — a simple Vermont retreat with access to everything the area has to offer.
