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.

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.

PERFECT. One word to describe this venue, the owners (Rebecca & Ryan), everything about our wedding weekend and the planning leading up to it. My (now) husband and I booked this venue without me even seeing it! The pictures are beautiful and don't do it justice! From the farmhouse to the barn to the cabin to the ceremony site, you name it, it is a breathtaking venue. Rebecca and Ryan are so easy to work with and are there if and whenever you need them! I want to relive our wedding weekend over and over! 10/10 recommend Meadow Ridge Farm :)
