Perched between the idyllic towns of Bethlehem and Littleton, we discovered Cherry Valley Farm in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. In our starkest Airbnb transition to date, we departed from Brooklyn on a Saturday morning after a month of New York City overdrive and arrived that afternoon to the soft serenity of this mountain farm.

This Airbnb was simply sensational. The second stop on our Airbnb honeymoon, the Modern Hayloft in Cotswolds was everything the pictures promised and more. This brilliantly renovated workshop achieves a sublime balance of rustic simplicity and modern indulgence. Nestled in the heart-warming town of Nailsworth, England, the Hayloft is a knockout beauty of an Airbnb that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
