The Studio

studio

Welcome to a slice of European hospitality in one of the hippest towns in America! This is a place where artists and writers can find inspiration or scholars can research. Here friends and family can come for weddings and enjoy a beautiful setting to compliment their celebrations.

A 1250 square-foot studio, loft-like open space behind our historic Queen Ann Victorian house from 1885. Surrounded by beautiful gardens and winding pathways.

For many years the studio was donated for concerts, poetry readings, yoga classes and two Shakespeare companies rehearsed here.

Imagine a large yoga studio with lots of room to dance on the perfect floor.  Dream and play, have your own private retreat. Large windows looking out into beautiful gardens. A beautiful place to spend with family and friends.

We are eco-friendly!

This is an eco-friendly space, particularly suited for people who generally use natural products. If you do use natural products and no essential oils you will have priority for booking. Please let us know what laundry detergent you normally use when you inquire. This way we will know whether we need to implement a  special protocol to accommodate you.

Location

A short walk to downtown Northampton and Smith College campus. Ideal for parents, family members and alumnae visiting the five colleges here in the Pioneer Valley. Close to hiking and bicycle trails. Also ideal if you are coming to the Valley to do a workshop or training,  for a few  weeks or months to work or study, or look for a longer term rental.

A 7 min. walk takes you to town and about 40 restaurants and many galleries and performance venues. The neighborhood has a number of writers, filmmakers and artists.

Gardens

The gardens are permaculture-based with many native plants and trees from apples, pears and blueberries to bamboo, Yucca, dogwoods, sweet ferns, herb garden and perennials. Behind the neighborhood and beyond you can walk to an Audubon sanctuary.

Event Planning

Please let us know if you are planning an event such as a wedding party, a baby shower, or a birthday so we accommodate it. There may be an extra charge depending on the number of people invited and we will help you create the perfect event. We may need to include a security deposit.

Bed type

There are two queen-size futons (with a foam core) and a sofa which makes into a double bed.

“If you want a space for relaxation, rejuvenation, and peace, this is the place to stay. This beautiful studio was the perfect “home away from home” for my partner and I to spend some much needed time together. Joanna is a great host, from putting out flower arrangements to making sure we had everything we needed.”
