About this venue

Established in 1750 as an English land grant in the picturesque White Mountains of Maine (then the “Massachusetts Bay Colony”), Hardy Farm remained in the same family for ten generations prior to being purchased by Greg and Deborah Link in 2001. After a The Links transformed Hardy Farm into a very special and unique “rustic elegant” venue for weddings and events offering an authentically historic feel, with a distinctly unique ambiance of contemporary yet rustic elegance featuring all of today's modern amenities. Hardy Farm accommodates up to 32 people overnight and the property encompasses 13 acres with beautiful gardens and stone patios, fire pit, the farmhouse, barn, lodge, woodland chapel, and their own 103’ sailcloth tent. Guests at Hardy Farm enjoy the beautiful rural New England setting with convenient proximity to North Conway, NH, and the Mt. Washington Valley, offering a myriad of year-round outdoor activities.

    Gorgeous venue with so much flexibility! Our guests were never bored moving around the property throughout the evening - from the woodland chapel to the patio for cocktail hour, then the tent and barn - all was beautiful and well kept! Additionally, the on site accommodations as well as the lodge just 2 min up the road made travel for guests so much easier. Greg and Deborah maintain a beautiful piece of property in Fryeburg we highly recommend!

    Hardy Farm wins as a winter wonderland!

    From the moment we first reached out to Hardy Farm, the communication was quick, thorough and detailed. The event manager was incredibly responsive and flexible, catering to any last minute changes with ease to ensure our day went off without a hitch. The venue itself provided an intimate, inclusive atmosphere that felt perfectly accommodating for our wedding. The optional onsite lodging was perfect for our bridal party, out-of-town friends and family, and allowed everyone to fully enjoy the celebration. Hardy Farm's attention to detail and seamless execution made our special day truly unforgettable.

    Spectacular experience !

    We could not be happier with this venue. It was charming, cozy, and all our guests fell in love with it. The owners were amazing to work with and made us feel comfortable and warm and were attentive to every need and question. There is not a single thing more we could have asked for. And not to mention- it is stunning and magical.

    Hardy farm is a very special place and we were so happy to celebrate our wedding there. We filled both houses with friends and family and enjoyed being able to settle in for a few days rather than be in and out in the same day like other venues do. Hardy farm is very DIY - we brought in a lot of our own signs, decor, etc., and supplied alcohol for our bar (in coordination with our caterer). We found it was the perfect combination of an outdoorsy setting with a space finished enough to have an elegant reception. We found both houses to be very comfortable and being able to have dinners with family while setting up the venue was a special memory. They were very responsive and helpful in planning, most if not all of our emails were replied to within 12 hours. As far as venue hosts go, we found Hardy Farm professional, easygoing, and very reasonable. They also recommend vendors that regularly work with them to make the vendor searching process easier.
