DOWDS’ COUNTRY INN & LATHAM HOUSE TAVERN – The Dowd's Country Inn, home of the Latham House Tavern, has been one of the most cherished establishments in the Upper Valley for decades. It is located on over 5 beautiful acres in coveted Lyme, NH, just a 15 minute drive from Hanover and Dartmouth College. The well-appointed inn, successfully run by the same owner for over 35 years, features 21 charming en-suite rooms and a spacious 115 seat banquet room, which opens onto a large outdoor patio and sweeping lawn, making it an ideal location for weddings, business gatherings, Dartmouth College functions, and more. The Latham House Tavern opened its doors in 2016 and quickly became a regional fan favorite. The thoughtfully designed interior offers an ambiance perfect for all seasons. The tavern and bar area seats 120 for indoor dining, in addition to the beautiful flagstone patio outdoor dining area. On any given day, or evening, imagine kids playing in the tavern's yard, while parents gather to enjoy great conversation, food and libations - that's a glimpse of its beloved history, and potential future. Lyme is home to the Dartmouth Skiway, only a 7 minute drive up the road, while right outside the inn’s doors, an extensive trail system awaits hikers, snowshoers, and cross-country skiers. The next owner can carry on in the traditional way the inn and tavern have been successfully run in the past, or use the existing space as a canvas to bring their own vision to life. Lyme is 10 minutes off I-91 and 10 miles from Hanover, NH.

Hanover is home to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, boutique shopping outlets, fabulous food, and more. One of its main attractions is Dartmouth College (one of the Ivy Leagues and the ninth oldest college in the nation), and in part due to its youthful atmosphere, the town enjoys a lively, 'New England cosmopolitan' business district. Hanover offers an incredible mix of activities from access to the White and Green Mountains to its arts and culture community not to mention the obvious intellectual benefits found in a college town.

Norwich was recently voted as the #1 Best Place to Live in Vermont by Niche.com. The quaint and picturesque town has a population of approximately 3,400 people. Its close proximity to Hanover, and its many historic buildings and attractions such as The Norwich Inn, Blue Sparrow Kitchen, and King Arthur Flour, make it a very desirable place to live. As one New York Times article described, “With a main street lined with white clapboard colonial buildings and a landmark steepled church, Norwich could be a set designer’s renderings of a tiny New England village.”

Woodstock, Vermont is the quintessential New England historic town. It sits in a valley surrounded by low-lying hills that nestle rather than overwhelm, and is a community snuggled around the Ottauquechee River. Woodstock is home to many excellent shops and restaurants, the Woodstock Inn & Resort, a great middle and high school, and it never fails to serve as an incredible place to go for a walk or meet someone for coffee.
Those who choose to reside near Woodstock continue to be some of the most educated in the world, some of the most accomplished “captains of industry” in the country. You’ll find filmmakers, war correspondents, writers, artists, military experts, doctors, high-tech entrepreneurs, rock stars, equestrians and happy soccer moms and dads all grabbing a coffee in town. Woodstock also attracts its fair share of Dutch, English and French, many of whom are reminded of home by the gentle hills, winding dirt roads, cows, sheep and horses in pastures next to beautiful weathered barns. Even if it’s not the old country, it has the feel of a place with deep roots.
