Scottland Yard Farm's Adorable Wee Hobbit House

Our little guest house affectionately referred to as 'The Hobbit House' is located on our farm here at Scottland Yard! We boarder Hammond Hill state forest, with access to miles of hiking, hunting and skiing trails.
The well appointed wee house is 16×16′ with a large bathroom, kitchen, common area downstairs and a pull out queen serta sofa bed. The bedding and mattress protector are provided in the storage closet. In the loft you will find a comfortable double bed made with (silk feel) 100% bamboo sheets as well as 1 fold up 4″ twin floor mattress with provided bedding in the closet. For our guests comfort and well being, all beds are REQUIRED to be made with the mattress protectors provided! Bath and Turkish beach towels are also provided. The kitchen in this area has a wee under counter fridge with a tiny freezer, a fancy cuisine art air fryer convection toaster oven, coffee pot, 2 burner electric hotplate, and a blender. All cooking and eating utensils are provided. The ship ladder going to the loft is just that….a structurally sound permanently attached wooden ship’s ladder. They are steep. Please refer to the picture of the ladder for a nice visual look at them! **Due to the danger of the steep ship ladder to the bedroom, we recommend that families with children under five do not choose this unit. Outside you have a lovely deck with a bistro table, grill and a little fire pit. The peacocks can often be found roosting on your pergola and the chickens scratching in your yard! You mustn’t leave your door open and unattended or they may decide to make themselves at home and move right in with you, yes really!

After a short walk you will find our Mercantile store, our Traveler’s trunk boutique and beautiful natural pool for swimming and relaxation. Every child 5 and under, or any non swimmer, must provide their own life jacket when in or around the pond. If any non swimmers are occupying the space without a life-jacket, they will be asked to leave the area.

The natural pool’s beauty and tranquility is complete with a lovely waterfall and our pet Koi! The Koi are always eagerly awaiting their koi treats from our guests. These treats can be purchased for $1 from our small Mercantile store along with horse treats, rabbit treats and bird treats. The mercantile also has snacks, local wine, honey and beer along with camp cooking supplies you may have forgotten. Our fun little travelers trunk boutique has some interesting finds from our travels as well as local homemade items!

There is a natural pool, swinging tree hammocks, children’s playground, bistro tables everywhere, coin op laundry mat with 2 washers and 2 dryers and plenty of farmland to explore! We border the lush and lovely Hammond Hill State forest. If you love cross country skiing, mountain biking and walks we border You have access to miles of state trails!! The barns and pastures are restricted from guests’ entrance. Scottland Yard community consists of several small clustered homesteads. Each Sunday is ‘Sunday funday’ BBQ at Scottland Yard from 2-7pm. Monday-Thursdays from 2-6 we have family swimming at Scottland Yard. Our guests often join us for this joyful time. If you happen to arrive or are enjoying the facilities during these hours, please know that you’re welcome to join us if you wish!

There are over 200 wineries in the Fingerlakes Region and many are within an hours drive. The closest one to us is Six Mile Creek Vineyard about 5 miles away. Visit waterfalls or state parks such as Buttermilk Falls, Taughannock, Robert H. Treman, Ithaca Falls.

We really like the idea of the honor system and guests can settle up their purchases via different forms of payment, (venmo, cash or checks) at time of purchase. We hope you chose to ‘just breathe’ with us here at Scottland Yard farm and look forward to sharing our magical space with you! https://youtu.be/cAcdaQkJXVk

Great getaway
City girl needing some relaxation. The Hobbit house was adorable and came with everything we needed. We wanted to hike some of the surrounding falls and explore a bit, and Scottland yard property was the perfect place to come “home” to. Loved waking up to the sounds of all the animals they have on the property. Will try and make it back!

Tucked away
I absolutely loved being at the Wee Hobbit House, Scottlandyard in Brooktondale, NY. I am a 70 year old woman and went to upstate NY to spend time with my daughter and grandson. Was a perfect location for me... 10 minutes from my daughter, Dandy Mart on the way for coffee and gas. I mention 70 year old because the upstairs bedroom was not something I could manage, but I slept on the couch downstairs and was very comfortable. Tanya was super as a co-host. Duane and Andrea very kind. And this time of year, March-April being with sheep as they lambed daily. Also adored the peacocks as they mustered around the Wee House to roost in the trees for the night. One of my favorite places to stay!!! Marie
