Why the Owner Chose Ashland
Having both studied Land Management and Conservation, the estate was an obvious choice for the Brophy's. The property is biologically diverse and is a haven for many bird species and seasonal wildlife. It is close to everything yet there is a real feeling of being in the country....the best of both worlds. Managed in a sustainable manner with an emphasis on conservation, promoting a natural habitat for wildlife and a healthy environment for our guests.

For the past two years, a group of girlfriends and myself gather together for 4 long days of country bliss at Quarry Hill Farm. It doesn't get much better, in my opinion. There are plenty of rooms to have privacy from one another or places to hide and read in the garden. But the main rooms also accommodate our group of six very comfortably. The owners are incredibly kind and helpful, yet allow for total privacy and only check that all is working well or stop by to deliver warm Irish soda bread. The 2 cottages are spotless, well-equipped with all the amenities you might need, including a dvd player and a bose stereo for your iphone or ipod. The jogging and walking is very good, and swimming holes are not too far. It's often warm when we go, so we have not cozied up in front of the wood stove yet, but it's there to remind us that if it's cold, the wood pile is generously stocked. We often cook our own meals in order to not have too many plans (in addition to our plays for the Shakespeare Fest) and to relax, drink wine, and make lovely meals in the easy-to-use kitchen. Sitting outdoors for three meals a day, whether it's on the deck (there are several) or down by the garden or in the meadow, is heavenly. To be in such a lovely cottage together, surrounded by straw hills, giant old oaks, fruit trees (which the owners always offer to share) and horses, is so calming and comforting when you've been leading a hectic city life. The outdoor shower is fantastic! And the house and grounds are impeccable and super clean. The climate is normally mild and wonderful and if we crave a sauna or massage, it's just minutes to town or to the funky but charming Jackson Hot Springs. Ashland is a wonderful getaway, no matter what time of year, and, coming here to stay feels like home. Thank you to Joe and Annette for such extreme hospitality always!

The property is beautiful! Quiet and rural and utterly peaceful in every way. Lots of lovely places to sit outside and listen to the chirping crickets. Easy to get to the plays in Ashland, but lots of room to spread out and relax. So much better than a hotel since we love to cook. And Annette is utterly charming, with suggestions and helpful tips for anything we need, from massages to running trails. Our group of six friends loved it so much the first time that we booked it again for the following year. And we'll be back again!

What a wonderful surprise to arrive at Quarry Hill Farm and find a charming cottage and guest house that would rival something we've seen in Europe. The large trees and garden paths invite you outside -- however; the well thought out interior details and decor of the main house, guest cottage and unique Tipi make it hard to leave! My mother and I met her sister (Aunt) and daughter (Cousin) for a relaxing family weekend that didn't disappoint. The donkey Sebastian and dog Moss were sweet additions to the property. We hope to back soon. Thank you Annette and Joe!

LINDEMANN FAMILY REUNION ~ JULY 2 - 8

We found The Farm to be delightful! The Farm House, Cottage and even the Tee Pee were charming, All was so clean, well supplied with comfortable beds. The spaciousness and grassy areas were wonderful for all of us: relaxation in the cool shade for the adults and space for the kids to run and play. We loved our "dining room" out under the trees. Never needed to use the one in the Farm House. It was all so peaceful. The gardens are lovely! Our hostess was very accommodating and thoughtful. We even found flowers on our dining table. If you like a little "country" with a "comfy" touch, we highly recommend The Farm! Dick and Julie Lindemann

A Sanctuary to Revitalize the Soul

Our family vacation was absolutely wonderful. We rented both the farm house and cottage for four days and found both to be comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated, and they welcomed our dog too! Annette and Joe were enjoyable hosts. We enjoyed the close proximity to Ashland where we spent most of our time, but truly enjoyed the tranquil sounds and beauty of nature and found joy in just hanging out. The majestic walnut trees were great to nap and BBQ under and the kids and dog had plenty of room to play. There were also many outdoor adventures in close proximity and we spent one morning on a breathtaking hike. Thanks, we'll be back
Owner response:Unfortunately at this time we no longer accept pets as we have livestock that must take priority. Service dogs are permitted with prior approval. There is a wonderful pet sitting and kennel service in Ashland that I can highly recommend.

I had a superb stay in the Farmhouse. Visiting the Shakespeare Festival with my granddaughter from the Bay area. I found the location to be perfect for the tranquility I needed while just a short distance to fine restaurants and the culture of Ashland. My granddaughter especially enjoyed the owner's horses. The home was clean and very comfortable and perfect for soothing my soul. I will be back as often as possible and will highly recommend this to anyone fortunate enough to obtain a booking.

"We rented the farmhouse for an extended number of months. It is very much like the pictures portray. The property is very well maintained and equipped. Our stay was very enjoyable with a couple of caveats. In a couple of cases, the owner had a difficult time with clear communication on issues that affected our stay. Laundry facilities: Shared facilities in separate building. Our experience was that, even on the days that we had agreed would be open to us, the machines were often unavailable due to owner use. Had a very uncomfortable conversation with Annette upon my very first use that boiled down to her concern that my loads were too small (I thought). While I applaud her energy conservation, she could have simply asked about my laundry habits, learned that the small load in question was a “special” load of business attire that was a very occasional thing and could have avoided this discomfort. Ended up doing laundry elsewhere on several occasions because of these factors. Didn’t find out until after move-out that her real concern was about the level of water in her well and that her husband thought we were using the facilities too often in the beginning, again something that could have been cleared up with a simple, direct conversation about the real issue. We also were disappointed with how she handled move-out. While we were there, I asked on 2 occasions that she chat with us about her expectations on move-out. We had a dog in the house and the inevitable hair shedding combined with her velveteen drapes and other fabrics was cause for concern about additional clean up. Both times she said she’d “look at the lease”, didn't follow up, yet was very quick to email us within a day or two of our departure with full detail. We don’t deny that the dog left hair and this isn’t about a kept portion of the deposit. But it would have been nice to handle this openly while we were there as requested, especially since Annette had very specific expectations of how she wanted the house left.
Owner response:In response I wish to address a couple of the guests concerns. Given the water shortages in the area at that time I feel our request for fewer and larger laundry loads justified. Understandably, if the laundry is not actively being used by a guest on the day agreed, one could rightly (or wrongly) assume it was at my disposal. I apologize for any confusion. Our website and literature reflect our genuine efforts at the conservation of natural resources and our simple requests are not only appreciated and respected but also have a powerful impact on the environment. It is the responsibility of the guest (or tenant) to review the lease and agreements and do what is necessary to comply.Upon request, I paid a brief visit prior to move out, however it is only after a guest departs one can truly assess the property. As per the Pet Addendum, "any evidence of pets on furniture may incur additional cleaning fees". I had no option but to have the furnishings professionally cleaned. We work very hard to offer an exceptional vacation home and I believe any discerning property owner would have done the same. It is our goal to offer our guests the best experience possible and the many five star reviews are testament to that.
