Would suggest an addition AC unit during hot summer months and blinds for the windows in bathroom up stairs once neighbors move in. We enjoyed our stay. ##### Paige S. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David E. Mar 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Benedict Farm House Great location, near Manchester and Dorset, just off Rt 7A. Instructions for check in were spot on, but we didn't receive the initial email, it had to be resent. Probably the coldest weekend of the winter, with temps close to 0F. Oil heat/forced air, but it wasn't able to do a good job on the primary bedroom (downstairs). Other than that, unit was well furnished, with a Keurig coffee maker, full complement of cooking gear.Would definitely return in the future. ##### David E.
