Sound-sensitive guests
A place that asks nothing from you.
Hush Hollow sits in a fold of the hills with a stream running past the garden wall and wildflowers over the path. The building is old, low-ceilinged and quiet in the way thick stone is quiet.
The hosts hold a sound bath in the barn once a week. Otherwise the water outside is the only thing making noise.
- An old stone cottage for two in a wooded hollow, with a stream running past the garden wall.
- Thick walls and small windows make the interior unusually quiet — the reason it's in the collection.
- A sound bath runs weekly in the barn; hosts will tell you the day when you book.
- Wildflower garden, outdoor table, and a small wood stove for cool evenings.
