About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Linden Cottage - comfort, connection, convenience

Plenty of space at Linden Cottage. Built circa 1840. Restored and modernized 2019-24. Home is a Greek Revival, New England style farmhouse with attached barn. Nestled in old Plaistow Village, in a safe, secure location near town hall and police station. Property has two connected, separate homes, and a large barn. Your accommodations are fully furnished. 4 bedrooms, 2 baths. 40 minutes to Boston. 20 minutes to Seacoast Beaches. A calming, spacious environment to unwind and be your best self.

This home is a historical preservation award winner. The exterior has been thoughtfully restored to its original condition, while the interior was completely redesigned and renovated to highlight antique charm, while also creating a modern, comfortable, energy efficient space.

The property has two separate homes that are connected by a 10 foot wall. The front home is a fully furnished rental. The rear home is owner occupied. There is minimal to zero noise transference from home to home.

We like to be flexible in how guests can use the space. Check-in is anytime after 3 pm. Base nightly rates are for parties of 6 or less. Add $25 per night for both guests #7 and #8. Dogs are welcome with a $50 canine guest fee. We can also provide a crate for your dog, if you need to leave an unsupervised dog in the home. Parking is very spacious for 2 cars, slightly tight for 3 cars, and quite tight for 4 cars.

The house is rich with antique and historical character and makes for a very nice sleep, but don't confuse it with new construction. The floors creak and will never be level, and it's one of those projects where there are unfinished details, some of which may never be completed.

Also beware, there is noise. The property is 5 doors down from the police station, and 2 blocks over from the train tracks. You will hear police and fire sirens from time to time, and the Northeast Amtrak rolls through the village daily. Traffic can be moderate during certain times of the week.

Over the next two years, there are additional projects that will be completed on the barns, landscaping and rear house. Because contractors are busy, and construction is weather dependent, we can't dictate exactly which days, and which times there will be workman on site. If we have construction underway during your stay, please make us aware if this is a problem for your so we can make additional accommodations.

Impeccably maintained home

Linden Cottage is such a beautiful home. It is in a great location for visitors to enjoy New Hampshire or Massachusetts. The home is very well maintained, superbly organized, beautifully furnished, and brimming with amenities that make it such a pleasant and welcoming place to stay. We experienced a very significant snowstorm during our visit, and the property managers were right on top of it, plowing, shoveling.... even clearing a path for our dog to go out! We had a truly relaxing time and would love to stay again sometime.

Best Stay Ever

This was the best stay we have ever had. The cottage was very clean, well stocked with basics and snacks, the hosts even cleaned off our car after a snow storm! They communicated well and promptly. We asked to stay a couple extra days and Liz went beyond to make that happen. The house is spacious and has a warm, homey feeling as soon as you walk in the door. We hope to return in the fall for a longer stay. Thank you, Liz and Jeremy

Family Reunion and Wedding Week

Our stay was everything that we could have hoped for. My brothers and their wives were in town for my son's wedding, and this property provided all that they needed and more! The hostess was extremely gracious and accommodating, checking in frequently (but not obtrusively!) to make sure we had everything we needed. The recently-renovated cottage had all the expected modern amenities, as well as thoughtful details like kitchen supplies and toiletries. I would not hesitate to recommend a stay here to anyone, and definitely hope to book the property again as the need arises. We were also told that the owners plan to expand their offerings in the future by building a multiroom inn which, based on our stay, we are sure will be a great success!

Beautiful New England home

The Linden Cottage is in a lovely neighborhood where we enjoyed walks through the neighborhood still awash in fall color. Everything we needed was provided in the Cottage, including some nice fruit and goodies kindly provided by our gracious host, Liz. We enjoyed meals in the cottage made easier by the well stocked kitchen. The bedrooms were comfortable and had lovely decor. I highly recommend the Linden Cottage to anyone visiting the area.

Family wedding

Linden Cottage was just up the road from the wedding we attended. We had plenty of room to spread out and relax between events. The cottage was beautiful and it was extremely close to amenities without feeling like we were in the middle of the city. Food, shopping and service stations were all close by. We loved it and hope it’s available should another family event come up in the future. Great renovation!

Outdoor space was wonderful though we spent most of our time at Canobie Lake and Great Wolf as part of theor activities. Would stayagain if we travel near here. Lots of items in case we forgot crucial things.

Amazing home!

The house and Liz were amazing! The description of the property doesn't do it justice. It was by far the cleanest property we ever stay at. The beds and furniture were beyond comfortable! All the extra touches (water, snacks, toiletries, etc) show Liz really cares about her guests. Perfect location for attending a Red Sox game.
