TRAVEL
We live in the central valley of Vermont, a place of immense wonder that is kind of hard to get to!
We recommend having your own mode of transportation, since Uber does not exist here.
Rental cars are available at all the airports listed below.
AIRPORTS
Burlington Airport
1.5 hours away and has many rental car companies.
West Lebanon Airport
Cape Air flies from NYC (ZYP) and Boston (BOS) to West Lebanon NH (LEB), just 30 minutes away!
It books up quickly so be sure to book far in advance!
Not for the faint of heart, these are tiny little planes.
They can also be canceled last minute due to weather.
Boston Logan Airport
Boston is only a 2.5 hour drive to Tunbridge. If you're coming from far, it can be easiest to book to Logan, rent a car and drive up.
AMTRAK
Amtrak takes a while but it is beautiful. No car rental on site and you will need a pick up if you take this option. You can arrive at Randolph, VT or White River Junction, VT.
DARMOUTH COACH
Bus transport option from NYC or Boston, including Boston Logan Airport. No car rental on site and you will need a pick up if you take this option.
LODGING
We recommend that you book lodging soon and in the following towns:
Tunbridge, South Royalton, Chelsea, Randolph, Barnard, and Woodstock.
There are hotel blocks available in Woodstock and Randolph.
Woodstock has more shops and cafés, if you’re into that sort of thing :)
