The food is amazing and you can now order takeaway through UberEATS to enjoy back in the guest cottage. Delivery drivers have had trouble finding the guest cottage driveway in the past. We highly recommend picking up your meal at the restaurant if using UberEATS.

Sightseeing

Just gorgeous. if you've never seen a covered bridge, even if you have, drop everything and go here. The bridge and the town of West Cornwall is a treat. The drive to the bridge isn't half bad either!

Stunning inn and a restaurant with a celebrity chef! Go for a spa treatment at The Well or make a dinner reservation in advance. We recommend a cocktail in the Tap Room and a stroll through the Shakespeare Garden.

Beautiful hiking just a mile north of the guest cottage. The trails wind among abandoned nickel mines from the 1800's. Hiking boots are recommended.

Blessed by Martha Stewart and the late Steve Jobs. You'll most likely meet the iconic Potter in person in the shop or at his potter's wheel. Take home a unique hand crafted flower pot as a special souvenir from the Litchfield Hills! And if you do meet Guy in person, strike up a conversation. he has fascinating stories to share!

城市建議

交通資訊

Bring your own set of wheels!

Litchfield County has a lot to offer, but unfortunately public transit isn't on the menu.
出發前完成預訂

Arethusa al Tovolo

On the short list of best restaurants in CT and featuring ingredients direct from their farm - just a mile away from the guest cottage - in the heart of Bantam. Make dinner reservations in advance.
需要帶些甚麼

Insect Repellent

Nature is beautiful and all around... so are the bugs. Our frogs, toads, bats and dragonflies can only do so much. Don't forget to pack insect repellent.
省錢方式

Bantam Market

While the guest cottage doesn't have a kitchen, there is a minibar fridge and Microwave. Swing by the Bantam Market to stock up on yogurts for breakfast and craft beer for an evening nightcap and lower your restaurant expenses.
切勿錯過

West Cornwall Red Covered Bridge

The covered bridge all New England towns wish they had. Charming town too. Check out Michael Trapp antiques if the shop is open.
風俗和文化

Terrible cell phone service

Download Offline Google Maps for the area in advance. Many areas of Litchfield County have no cell service. It does however make it easier to unplug and unwind!
