Why the Owner Chose Tivoli
I chose this property for its arboretum of gracious guardians, the many unusual and mature trees, creating a private-oasis-feel, the numerous "outdoor" rooms on its nearly five acres, yet immediate access to the Village of Tivoli with many good restaurants.
The Hudson River Valley has a profusion of unusual locales, historic sites, performance venues, arts institutions, natural wonders, great seasonal festivals, farmers' markets, excellent eating, healing practitioners... a veritable feast of arts, culture and spirit.
Walking distance from the Hudson River with a view of the sunset over the Catskills, cross-country skiing in the nearby 1722-acre Tivoli Bays make the Barn an ideal spot to enjoy wintry meditations by the wood burning stove, summer days, spring bloom, spectacular autumn colors, with a pond and a private swimming hole in the Stony Creek (bordering the property to the East and North).
Four films have been shot, 3 books written, 2 CDs rehearsed... all have been gestated and brought to fruition in this creative sanctuary. The Barn has been witness to many engagements, marriage proposals, honey moons and weddings. It is a place well seasoned with love and spirit.
The Unique Benefits at this Converted Barn
Kathleen's Barn offers an array of services to our guests through Somatic Studios at Kathleens Barn. From massage, guided nature walks, Feng Shui, Chi Kung, to sweat lodges, sacred fire ceremonies and private retreats, Kathleen's Barn can be a quiet, or expansive, but certainly unforgettable experience.
