Highland cattle graze at the forest's edge on our Celtic-heritage farm: a gentle retreat with options for woodland wandering, farm-fresh breakfasts, and campfires complete with traditional Gaelic music! Our 40-acre farm includes heritage-breed animals, organic gardens, and over 30 acres of conservation woodlands. We favor scythes over tractors--your stay will be quiet and fume-free! Bradbury Mountain and several trail networks are nearby, along with rivers, ocean beaches, and an excellent locavore food scene. Since the early 1800s, this land on the edge of Chandler Brook has nourished bodies and spirits alike. Sloping pastures meet well-managed woodlands, making this a haven for both humans and wildlife. Since the 1980s, we have worked to restore the soil and make a "hand-built" life as farmers using pre-industrial organic methods. We maintain pollinator habitats, tend an orchard of heirloom-variety fruit trees, and conserve rare heritage-breed animals, including Tamworth pigs and Scottish Highland Cattle. Our shared love for Celtic folk culture has blended naturally with our love of sustainable agriculture to create Tir na nOg Farm. Today, the work of restoration continues with the help of farm partners, family, friends, WWOOFers, and other volunteers. This land is already better than we found it, but we hope it will remain a gathering-ground of culture and agriculture, tradition and innovation for generations to come.

Great Farm Stay

Cool experience with a lovely host. Right away we were made most welcome. Loved seeing all of the fruits of the host's labour. Her two sweet dogs and many animals made the stay different from a boring hotel.

The Hobbit House at Tir na nOg Farm

Magical experience on a beautiful f

We had a magical time at the Hobbit House on Holly's land! The hosts showed us around their lively farm, full of pigs 🐖, chickens 🐔 and roosters 🐓 ! It was a short hike over to the Hobbit House and it was private and safe! Our 3 year old son loved the experience and we did too! We also had their amazing breakfast, made with healthy food, edible flowers and lots of love! ❤️
