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.
PLEASE NOTE: The Cottage is for single occupancy only. We cannot accommodate couples in this space. No exceptions. Please don't ask. Also the tiny house shower provides the user with 7 minutes of hot water--which is the average time most Americans spend in the shower. In other words, this place is not for you if you want, say, 20-minute showers. :-)

About the host
Hosted by Ron Tanner
Ron is a retired professor, a DIY expert, and a dedicated historic preservationist. When he bought this farm in 2015 (with his wife, now deceased), it hadn't been touched since 1959. He has since restored it to its former (Victorian) glory.
Why they chose this property
Good Contrivance Farm is conserved land. There are no neighbors and no other houses within view. However it is very close to shopping and services.
What makes this property unique
The Hen House Cottage is part of a restored, Victorian farm, which features gorgeous views, flowering gardens, and huge, historic trees. The Cottage--a bespoke, custom space--is unlike any property you have stayed at.
