About the area
Newbury
Located in Newbury, this apartment is in a rural area and on a lake. Newport Opera House and New London Historical Society are cultural highlights, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Country Club Of New Hampshire and Sunapee Harbor. Bayberry Barn Christmas Shop and Sawyer Fine Arts Center are also worth visiting. Take in the nearby slopes with cross-country skiing and snowboarding, or try out other outdoor activities such as sledging and snowmobiling.
Great studio apartment with everything needed for an extended stay. Comfy queen size bed, comfortable couch for relaxing and great deck for enjoying a glass of wine at the end of the day or coffee in the morning. Quiet, secluded location. We were traveling on business and the apartment was perfect for relaxing after a busy day. Cindi and Brett are wonderful hosts and we look forward to staying with them again.

Mary and Bill are very nice. They left the place immaculate and hope to see them again. They stayed over one week and were a pleasure to host
Perfectly quiet setting to relax and unwind after a full day of being a tourist.

Jacqueline and her husband are lovely people. Communication was great and they left the place immaculate. We truly hope they will stay with us again, mainly because they are so nice!!
Brett and Cindi are wonderful hosts. The studio apartment has a beautiful rear deck facing a lovely woods. It was a very relaxing and comfortable stay!
This is a wonderful place to stay. It's spacious, very comfortable and had everything we needed. It's about 25 minutes from an annual event we were attending in downtown Newport. One of the days my wife had to stay back and teach a class online. The WiFi worked great and with a full kitchen, she was all set. I wish we had more time to do some hiking around the property. The woods are beautiful. Cindi and Brett are great hosts, as well as interesting people. We had a lot in common and enjoyed some great conversations, like we were old friends. We'll definitely be back next year!
Lovely open space with queen bed and pull out couch queen bed with great kitchen and dining space. Bathroom was also spacious and had washer and dryer (great for post snowboarding laundry.). The neighborhood was VERY quiet and we had a peaceful stay. Will definitely stay again! Thank you to our wonderful hosts for opening their home!
This was a perfect home base for our family of four to enjoy a few days of skiing at Mt Sunapee. All the thoughtful details made it feel like home and it was so convenient to be able to cook up meals and wash our ski clothes after a long day of skiing. Thanks for a great stay!

very peaceful and quiet
I was very pleased with this rental, it was very peaceful and quiet. My daughter is student over a Colby-Sawyer College and needed a weekend away from the dorms to do some studying and this fit the bill perfectly. Even with unexpected snow it wasn't a problem going down the dirt road and up the driveway. The apartment was spotless, although a little chilly the first day. The heat hadn't been on very long but the gas fireplace warmed it up nicely! With that being said, if you rent in the winter, bring your slippers...the floor is cold, socks aren't enough. The apartment is over a garage!!
All in all it was a great rental! And would recommend it.

Thank you. Everyone's temperature liking is different. We leave it set at 65 so not to waste heat & allow guests to regulate the thermometer themselves once there. It does warm up quickly with the gas corner stove. We have bamboo floors so like wood floors they are colder than carpet. But wood is so much nicer & easier to keep clean. It is very peaceful & quite as Trisha remarks. We don't use the garage when guests are here & it was built with extra floor boarding for sound proofing. We've never had any complaints.

Quiet and relaxing
Had a wonderful trip, loved the suite it was private and had its own entrance. The studio itself was lovely and so was the view. Cindi and Brett were kind and helpful. I loved that there were many books and some games in the studio. A great place to escape to if you want something quiet and detached.

Weekend at Craftsmen Craft Fair, Mt Sunapee Resort, New Hampshire
Accommodations were as stated on VRBO website and more. All the comforts of home comfortable bed, loads of room, nicely decorated, very quiet and near points of interest. Cindi and Brett were in the main home available and friendly.
We would definitely stay again and refer our friends to stay at this lovely setting

Enjoyable area to explore
The studio was comfortable, clean and quiet. Cindi and Brett were great hosts-available if needed. They greeted us when we arrived and gave us some advice on dining and outdoor adventures and put the ac in the window which we needed one night.
We rode our mountain bikes on the Sugar River Trial which was beautiful, but the trail had some sandy spots that made it very difficult to pedal. There were several ATV's on the trail also which was fine except when they came by and kicked up a lot of dust.
We also did a 2-mile climb to the summit of Mt. Sunapee which was a great trail but difficult if you are not in decent shape. The view at the summit was beautiful. You could also take a ski lift to the top and walk down the mountain. The Adventure Park was also open with other cool stuff to try especially for families.
The State Beach also rents kayaks/canoes for an hour or a half day starting Memorial Day weekend.
Flying Goose had great nachos and my husband loved the beer brewed on site. They have a solar-powered brewery on site that we would have loved to have checked out but Brewer works weekdays only.
Pizza at Bubba's was good - wood fired pizza oven. Grab a pizza to go and find a spot across the street overlooking the lake.
Sanctuary Farm Ice Cream was delicious - fun place to hang out with kids. Animals to pet, etc.
Mill Stone on Main St. had delicious food, drinks and excellent service. French Dip was delicious.
Sunapee Harbor was quaint with shops and small restaurants. Preservation Center was worth a visit.

Great studio, perfect for 2-4 people, very friendly owners
The studio is perfect for 2-4 people - huge, well-stocked, with large windows overlooking woods, a large deck & private entry. Conveniently located near Mt. Sunapee Ski Resort. Also, bunch of convenience stores & super markets nearby or on the way close-by. Cindi & Brett are very friendly & accommodating. When I forgot to buy eggs on my way, Cindi readily provided their own farm-grown, organic eggs. We will definitely come back and I highly recommended Cindi-Brett's Studio.

Our Second Visit to Chicken Farmer...
When we decided to return to New England this fall there was no question where we would stay. We were thrilled to be able to visit "Chicken Farmer I Love You" once again. We had a delightful stay in this quiet mountain retreat. Everything was just as we remembered...a lovely, cozy studio in a beautiful, tranquil setting. Cindi and Brett are such gracious hosts and made sure that our every need was met. We highly recommend this property for a quiet get-away and hope to come again.

Beautiful studio near sunapee mountain
We had a lovely stay here. Brett and Cindi were great hosts and had great suggestions for the area. The studio was very close to Sunapee, which made it perfect for a ski getaway. The room has a nice little kitchenette and was very private.

New England Vacation
My husband and I visited New England for the first time this fall. Our stay in Cindi and Brett's studio couldn't have been more perfect for us. This pretty, comfortable, and clean studio located in a gorgeous and peaceful setting was a delightful "home away from home" while we toured New England. Our hosts made every effort to make us feel welcomed and comfortable, and were available to meet our needs. The rental exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a quiet and peaceful get-away in a beautiful setting. Our only regret...we live so far away that we can't visit more often!!
Thank you, Cindi and Brett, for an absolutely wonderful vacation experience in your lovely studio rental. I do hope we can come again.

Our "go-to" stay in Newbury
My wife has family and friends in the area, and we have now stayed with Cindi and Brett numerous times when we visit (and are planning more stays). They are very welcoming and the apartment is a perfect "home away from home." Highly recommended!
