Litchfield County Connecticut offers autumn getaways with art and food
New York City creatives and foodies are choosing Litchfield County in Connecticut for weekend trips during the fall foliage season.
Popular destination for visitors
The area includes towns such as New Preston, Cornwall, Kent, and Washington. Recent years have seen a shift toward creatives and food enthusiasts visiting the region. Cheri Bowen notes that art galleries and outdoor activities are available for guests.
Accommodation options include Mayflower Inn
The Mayflower Inn & Spa is part of the Auberge Collection. This property features an English country house and cottages on 58 acres. Visitors describe the scenery as gorgeous with covered bridges and forests.
Travel time creates a downside
Bowen jokes about the drive home when guests realize they must wait five days to return. The guide suggests planning for leaf-peeping season in the northwest corner of Connecticut. Travelers can find guides on where to stay, shop, and eat locally.
