Unique Tiny House Getaway on Historic Farm

The Hen House Cottage is a tiny house located on an historic farm in central Maryland. It is surrounded by six acres of beautiful pasture. The Cottage has great light throughout the day, a well-equipped kitchen (microwave, oven, coffee grinder, coffee maker, large fridge, etc.), a full bathroom (with shower), a sleeping area with a comfortable full-sized bed, dedicated (free) wi-fi, a smart TV, blue tooth sound system, and an eclectic library. Linens and towels are provided.

This tiny house is a conversion of an antique hen house on an historic farm. The interior is constructed mostly of reclaimed materials--like yellow pine flooring, corrugated tin ceiling, rough-cut oak book shelves, etc. The walls are decorated with an eclectic collection of art (everything from Japanese woodcut to abstract oils). The cottage features an impressive small library. It's warm and cozy, a superbly relaxing place to clear your head and get some much deserved rest.

Henhouse
Second time I've stayed here. It's the most peaceful and cozy cottage I have ever stayed at. Missed the pups but got to meet the barn cat, what a cuddler. Will definitely go back next time I'm in town

The guest house is excellent -- very cozy and inviting inside. It is on a farm with the requisite farm "look." Do not expect manicured landscaping, but rather enjoy a stroll around the grounds and take in the sights on a working farm.

A little gem
Quiet seclusion not far from the hustle and bustle. Looks like it is supposed to be a writers retreat, which I'm sure it is. Because of traffic I was running late getting there. The lights were on when I arrived so I didn't have to fumble in the darkness. A very warm and inviting place, with the reddish hues of the reclaimed floor, shelves of books, and some antiques. I only wish my stay were longer. I would rent again, and if I do stay a couple more days to relax while there, With my jam packed weekend I didn't get to enjoy as much as I wanted to.

Perfection!
The Hen House renovation is nothing short of miraculous! This space and the surrounding farm are a welcome respite from the traditional. This "coop" will see me again when I next come to Baltimore/Carroll County. Highly recommended!

Peaceful, nice place
Its a peaceful quiet cottage in a small farm. It is listed as a tiny home but is a bit bigger. You have access to a pleasant farm with benches and patios around. There are a lot of rules to read but nothing is onerous. Everything in the cottage was very nice with the right mix of modern (TV) and old fashioned (furniture).

Wonderful Stay!
I had a wonderful stay! Everything was clean and in great condition. I had everything I need for a quiet getaway and weekend to myself. The owners were helpful and quick to communicate. It is a place that I definitely want to stay at again!
