Located in the charming town of Washington, Connecticut, lies the Mayflower Inn & Spa, an exquisite country retreat, nestled in 58 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and woodlands. Just a two hours’ drive from New York City, it is renowned as one of northeast America’s most distinguished luxury hideaways.
The idyllic countryside of Litchfield Hills has long been a nature lovers paradise and the Inn keeps guests engaged with the great outdoors with offerings such as hiking, biking, kayaking, paddle, pool, spa and tennis. The best part is the food due to the incredible local ingredients found in the surrounding Connecticut countryside and just off the New England coast, from artisan cheeses to the freshest shellfish, sourced through specially cultivated relationships with area farmers and purveyors.
Room to book? We are big fans of the premium guest rooms that overlook the Shakespeare gardens and The Mayflower Suite. When booking with MAPPS, clients receive a complimentary room upgrade, daily breakfast for 2 and a 100.00 food and beverage credit.
P.S. Just down the road is Arethusa Farm & Dairy, where Manolo Blahnik’s President and VP George Malkemus and Tony Yurgaitis have been at the helm since 1999. They produce the most delicious ice cream, cheeses and their restaurant is a must when in town. We also love Averill Farm Stand, a great stop before you head home to pick up their famous apple cider donuts, homemade jams, honey, cheeses and pies.
