A Historic Setting for A Timeless Love Story

Once you step on our grounds, prepare to be transported back in time. Our estate boasts over 50 acres and includes multiple historic buildings from the 1700s and 1800s, including a Federal-style Mansion. Our property also includes a working farm and sheep pastures for our heritage breed of Leicester Longwools. 

Here, Christopher and Rebecca Gore relished hosting the most influential people of their time for visits and parties. Following in the tradition of the Gores, we invite you to create your own historic event at Gore Place. Whether you’re looking for some quintessential New England charm, a rustic barn wedding, or a beautiful outdoor ceremony, Gore Place is your place!
