The Lyman Estate, also known as “the Vale,” is a National Historic Landmark and one of the finest U.S. examples of a country estate following eighteenth-century English naturalistic design. In 1793 shipping merchant Theodore Lyman commissioned famed architect Samuel McIntire to design and build a Federal-style house for his family.

The Lyman Estate is not even half a mile from us. Not only is it a beautiful estate and wedding venue, it has gorgeous greenhouses available for visits year round!

The Lyman Estate has the oldest surviving greenhouses in the united states. Amazing in winter, the greenhouses are consistently heated to tropical temperatures and feature rare and exotic plants.
