I like feel good movies like this. Jesse Metcalf is always easy on the eyes. I'll watch anything with this dreamy man. A movie I would recommend and watch again and again. I like all hallmark films in general but I'll try anything.

Basic story of someone- Who has a life,falls apart & rebuilds a new one quick. A typical Hallmark theme,except it has a guy dealing with it. The ending felt rushed.. Again,Hallmark! At least give us a bit of realism. Nobody gets elected into a position like that,etc.. etc. I have lived in small towns,it just doesn't work that smooth. The town & cinematography was nice,the acting was ok but leads felt a bit mismatched from a chemistry standpoint. Fills time on a night you are looking,for something to watch.

A good little feel good movie to forget the day's problems. But, if the setting is going to be on Cape Cod, then film the movie somewhere on on Cape Cod, not in Canada! This little southern Alabama girl has been to Cape Cod in the Fall and it is gorgeous, more beautiful than the scenes in this movie. I always enjoy seeing if I recognize scenery when I watch movies. I was so disappointed to find out this was not even filmed on Cape Cod!

How can you make a movie, claiming to take place in Cape Cod, when clearly it was shot elsewhere? Only one character actually has a New England Accent! The movie is likable and so are the characters in it, but a little more attention to detail and continuity, would have gone a long way. If you're looking for a movie that involves Cape Cod, this is not it.

I don't care what anyone says this is a very good movie and me and the wife loved it, even though it did have a few flaws. Still well worth watching. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 3/2/2021

A pleasant, harmless story in which a good-hearted young political campaigner abandons a faltering relationship to spend time in a small, friendly New England town where everyone knows everyone - and ends up finding everything he needs and wants there, and stays - and the town is glad to have him. Another satisfying tale in which the 'ordinary people' and conservation, come out on top, over 'development' and the interests of 'big business'. Just one very small point from the film - some scholars now think Christopher Columbus (name anglicized) was not 'Italian' (ie Genoese) at all, but was originally Catalan, hailing from Aragon in NE Spain.

I'm just starting to watch Hallmark's "Fairfield Road" (2010). I only got to the credits before one thing became obvious: I've heard this title song before. "Fairfield Road's" composer is listed as Ian Thomas and this film is his only IMDb credit. However, it must be noted that the music to his instrumental theme song is, in fact, "Durham Town (The Leavin')," a 1969 written and performed by Kenyan/British singer-songwriter and musician Roger Whittaker. The song hit #12 in Great Britain when it was first released in 1969. When it was re-released in 1976, it hit #8 in Canada and #23 on Billboard's Easy Listening chart (now called the Adult Contemporary chart). What gives?

Noah (Jesse Metcalfe) is experiencing a high point in his life. A recent aide to the mayor of Boston, he has just garnered his dream job as a senator's right hand man. Not only that, he has purchased a ring and plans to propose to his girlfriend at a lovely bed and breakfast on Cape Cod. But, alas, its soon a reversal of fortune. He finds out his fiancé has been cheating on him and his new boss-senator has been cheating everyone else. Unsure of what to do, Noah takes his dog and goes to the B and B in Hartfield, the tiny Cape town. Its lovely and the landlords are very kind to him. Planning only to stay the night and get his head back together, Noah soon learns that a hotshot developer is running for a town office that will give him carte blanche to bring big business to the village, ruining its character. Then, too, he glimpses the town's bookstore owner, Halley (Natalie Lisinska) and likes her beautiful face and active mind. Although the Boston mayor tries to pull Noah back into helping her, Noah may have found a new direction in aiding Hartfield's quest to stay unspoiled by big box stores. Will the high that went to low go back to high again, in Noah's life? What are the odds? This lovely Hallmark romance will be great viewing for fans of the genre. Although the cover of the DVD makes him look 14, Metcalfe is a very handsome charmer and the rest of the cast quite nice as well. Add on a beautiful coastal setting, great costumes, a winning script, and a sweet direction and, well, what are you waiting for love story fans? Walk or drive up the nearest road and grab this one wherever its available.

I found this Hallmark romance to be quite charming, and I recommend it for anyone who likes an understated love story. Noah McManus (Jesse Metcalfe) is a young man whose life goes off track when his job and his engagement both disintegrate on the same day. He travels to a small town on Cape Cod and checks into the cozy B&B where he was to have stayed with his fiancée. There, he becomes involved in the politics of the town and the lives of its residents. The acting of the two leads, McManus and Natalie Lisinska, feels genuine and appealing. Their relationship grows organically out of their interactions. And the film's incidental music greatly contributes to the tone of the story. Like many Hallmark stories, it champions small-town virtues and the value of personal interactions. The people who inhabit the coastal town feel like part of a hospitable landscape.
