  • Introduction

    Stonover Farm - Lenox, MassachusettsStonover Farm is a 110-year-old Berkshire "cottage" which served as farmhouse to the Stonover Estate, and which has been renovated extensively to provide luxury quarters. The main house, Rock Cottage and new School House Suite are now receiving guests who desire a unique Bed & Breakfast experience.

    Since a "full house" is typically 10 guests, we are able to provide personal assistance, in order to assure the most enjoyable Berkshire experience possible. The inn stands beside a spring-fed duck pond on 10 country acres with magnificent trees, lawns and forest, and yet it's just 7/10 of a mile from the Tanglewood main gate, and 2 miles from Lenox Village.

     

    Stonover Farm offers all the beauty and serenity of a grand country inn, while providing all the conveniences of a first class city hotel, including 4 fireplaces, living room, greenhouse, library, dining room, sunny breakfast room, patio and courtyard overlooking the pond, air conditioning in all suites (each suite with bedroom, sitting room and bath), private complimentary phones with voicemail, Sony flat-screen televisions, DVD players with DVD movie library, and Bose Wave radio / CD players with a selection of music for enjoyment in the suites. There are robes, amenities, a full cooked-to-order country breakfast, wine and cheese in the late afternoon, and a guest computer equipped with high-speed internet access as well as universal wireless access throughout -- all this in a stunning, peaceful country setting.

     

    Full, Hearty BreakfastBreakfast is served in the Creamery overlooking the pond, or, if you prefer, in the dining room or outside in the courtyard. Fresh - squeezed juice, fresh-ground coffee, fresh fruit salad, breads, bagels, muffins, preserves, Suky's homemade granola, yogurt, cold cereals, European butter and cream cheese are offered buffet style, and we are happy to prepare eggs, omelettes, bacon, sausage, pancakes or French toast upon request. We try our best to accommodate any dietary preferences. Later in the afternoon guests enjoy wine, beverages and a selection of local and imported cheeses.

    The Main House offers 3 luxury suites, and together with the 4-room Rock Cottage and new School House Suite, sits on 10 open acres with a duck pond.

     

     

    The Barn Gallery located in the Barn features contemporary painting, sculpture, photography and applied arts. The gallery is open to guests of the inn and visitors by appointment.

    Stonover Farm enjoys one of the finest locations in all of the Berkshires. Situated on 10 beautiful acres with a lovely duck pond and towering willows, we enjoy the best of the country, and are still just a 15-minute walk to Tanglewood, a 5 minute drive to Lenox Village, 10 minutes to Stockbridge, 15 minutes to Great Barrington, 20 minutes to Jacob's Pillow Dance Center, and 40 minutes to Williamstown.

The field is large enough for any size tent, and the ceremony is typically held on the barn ramp, with guest seating on the lawn. The lawn by the duck pond is perfect for a post-ceremony, pre-dinner champagne or cocktail reception.

    Our luxury suites can accommodate up to 14 guests, with the bride and groom enjoying the spacious, private and superbly appointed School House Suite. Your other guests may stay at any number of local traditional B&B’s, all within a few miles.

    Stonover Farm is just two and a half hours from New York or Boston. It combines generosity of space with a feeling of intimacy – we’re happy to help you plan a unique and memorable country wedding.
