About this cottage rental
This bright cottage sits between Ashintully Gardens (landscaped public gardens with winding brook, fountain, paths and hiking trails to the stunning ruins of Ashintully) and the McLennan Reservation on Round Mountain, 1000 acres of wooded hiking trails and the largest beaver dam in Berkshire County. The land around the cottage is under conservation restriction and there are plenty of places to hike and explore. You can hear the bells of a nearby monastery. Also very close to the Appalachian trail, several lakes and ponds, and the Tyringham Cobble, and a driveable distance from Bartholomew's Cobble, Monument Mountain, the Ice Glen, Bash Bish Falls, Beartown State Forest and Mt Greylock. Close to Lee with restaurants and outlet mall, and Lenox, Stockbridge, and Great Barrington. 20 min drive to Tanglewood Music Festival, Berkshire Theatre Festival, Jacobs Pillow, Shakespeare and Company, Chesterwood, The Mount, Naumkeg, the Norman Rockwell Museum, and more. An hour from the Hancock Shaker Village, Williamstown Theatre Festival, and Mass MOCA.

The property is off the beaten path but still close enough to anything you would need (grocery, restaurants, highway, etc) to not be inconvenienced. The “old timey” charm of this house was complimented well by the smart and tasteful inclusion of all the modern amenities. Communication with the host was fantastic. Everything was absolutely perfect.

Our family (2 adults, 4 kids) had an absolute fantastic time staying at Ashintully Cottage! The cottage was every other it was described as being and honestly, even better in person. The owner was very helpful with things to do in the area and texted us with weather updates as a courtesy. We loved being on the historic property of Ashintully and hiking the ruins. We also went for a hike at the Cobble, which ties in with the Appalachian trail. This was such a relaxing and one of a kind experience, and we look forward to coming back again!

Loved the location of this very cute cottage in this scenic town. Plenty of space for us for the weekend. Ashintully Gardens was directly across the street and we took a walk through the property--what a view when you get up to where the ruins are. Easy ride over to Stockbridge and great starting point to exploring the Berkshires. Passed the Big Y grocery store on the way to the cottage--Right off the Mass Pike. Loved having the closed in patio. Had breakfast out there every morning. Beds were comfortable, showers were adequate, smartly decorated, kitchen nicely stocked but not a lot of counter space for food prep but not really a big deal. Cell phone reception was spotty but not a big deal for us. TV is tiny but we only watched a couple of DVDs one evening. The only con would be the ultrasonic mouse repeller--they made clicking noises every few minutes. Thought it was the heat turning on but realized that wasnt it--tried not to pay attention to it. Never saw any critters either. Norman Rockwell museum is a must visit. Poked around Stockbridge and the shops. Went hiking at McLennan Reservation which is about a mile or two down the street from the cottage. Went apple picking at Windy Hill Farm in Great Barrington--lots and lots of apples. Visited Les Trois Emme Vineyard & Winery in New Marlborough. Overall loved the location and would love to stay here again and would recommend the cottage to as a good place to for exploring the Berkshires.
