  • Secluded sites on an organic farm in backcountry near Sheffield, MA
  • A 10-minute drive to the Appalachian Trail; 20 minutes to ski slopes
  • Farm shop and cattle on site; stores and dining five minutes’ drive
Hidden away among secluded fields accessed by dirt road, Moon In The Pond Farm has a variety of accommodations scattered around a small farm in the southern Berkshire hills near Sheffield, Massachusetts. Whatever time of year you visit, the forest and fields are alive with nature and natural activity. With some much space surrounding you, your only companions are likely to be the farm dog and cattle herds grazing happily in neighbouring paddocks – your own dogs are welcome too, but must be kept in a leash around livestock. The farm is situated on preserved land surrounded by thousands of acres of wild, countryside. Facilities on the pitches are fairly limited – portable toilets are provided but there is no lighting around the grounds so please remember to pack torches for any nocturnal wanderings. The lack of light on site does have a benefit, however, as the Milky Way dazzles in the sky above on clear nights. You have a choice of catering too. There’s a small shop on the farm, with seasonal produce offerings or you can spark up the barbecue and pick up basics from the handy store in Sheffield (five minutes’ drive). If you’d rather not cook, take a tour of the taverns, pizzerias and fine-dining establishments within 15 minutes’ drive.

Local attractions

Adjacent to the sites there are dirt roads to hike, as well as numerous marked trails linking into the famous, long-distance Appalachian Trail (10 minutes (10 minutes’ drive). A scenic hiking trail starts at Roger and Virginia Drury Preserve (five minutes’ walk), with a boardwalk leading through forest that’s home to blue herons and bobcats. As well as being a hiking hotspot, the neighbourhood offers up canoeing, kayaking, swimming, rock climbing and country-road biking, all within a 20-minutes drive. In winter, you can try your hand at snowshoeing on cross-country trails and downhill skiing at Catamount Mountain Resort (20 minutes). And for a change of pace – if you’re into antiques, then be sure to explore all the stores in Sheffield (five minutes), where you can pick up pre-loved silverware, picture frames and decorative furniture. For an extra dose of culture, get tickets for outdoor concerts at Jacob’s Pillow (45 minutes) or take a tour of Ventfort Hall Mansion and Gilded Age Museum (40 minutes).
