Cozy retreat on historic farm, close to outdoor activities, an idyllic getaway for couples

Prescription for a romantic getaway, courtesy of The Landmark Trust USA: Book the cozy, charming 1915 Sugarhouse, which sits at the edge of a stand of maple trees still used for spring sugaring. (Yes, you may bring your two dogs.) Add in a local treat basket with all the essentials for a hearty breakfast (local maple syrup, pancake mix, coffee, cream, milk, eggs, cheese, and more) or the Just Dessert basket with an apple pie and ice cream. Stir in some hiking, biking and, in season, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, all of which are conveniently nearby, or just cuddle up by the gas fireplace. You’re on the historic Scott Farm property, so head over to the Market for coffee, apples, and locally made goodies. The farm is where they filmed much of “The Cider House Rules” movie.
