Life on the Farm

Imagine living on a horse farm! Enjoy the wildlife, and watch horses graze right from your steps. Relax, at this unique getaway. As you drive down the entry to Fortunato Farm, you’ll feel a level of comfort allowing relaxation. Open the door, sip your coffee in the sunshine. You're in the country, yet close to CT shoreline areas and restaurants, Clinton Town Beach, and only 15 minutes to Middletown. 25 Miles to Tweed Airport and 45 Miles to Bradley International. 37 miles to Mystic & Mohegan.

Located on a 26 acre horse boarding facility. This is not only our home but we house other people’s horses. There is typically someone always around.

Coming with your horse? We can help accommodate them too for an additional fee. We also offer lessons and may have availability if booked ahead of time. Message Brittany for more information.

Morning chores start between 6:30 and 7:00 AM, so you may hear equipment outside and horses neighing!! As the weather gets nicer too, you could see people riding their horses around or walking them - please be mindful!

A Perfect Place to Spend a Quiet Morning
There's no better place to stay if you don't have to be out and about until later in the day and want to have a peaceful morning communing with nature and the farm critters!
