Litchfield Luxury AN HOUR DRIVE… A WORLD AWAY THE MAYFLOWER INN & SPA
An idyllic retreat nestled on 58 secluded acres in Washington, Connecticut, The Mayflower Inn & Spa is the epitome of luxury. It’s the perfect getaway for a solo trip to get some much-needed R&R, or a girls weekend, or a romantic escape, or a mother-daughter retreat, or just about any group that’s looking for a special day trip or weekend jaunt. An Auberge Resorts Collection, no comfort is spared, no detail is overlooked.
With the feeling of a small-town inn, and the facilities, service, and operations of a multinational top-notch hospitality company, the experience is pleasant and pristine. The charm is immediate; friendly valets are outside ready to whisk away cars and luggage; a perfectly decorated foyer has a large inviting staircase and adjacent sitting rooms with crackling fires and plush oversized seating, and the mahogany bell desk window is complete with an old-fashioned button bell and brass keys with braided tassels stored in wooden cubbies. There’s always an array of tea, coffee, water, and sweet treats out for guests, next to an assortment of daily newspapers in a room richly decorated with textured wallpaper and heirloom furniture. If you’ve ever watched Gilmore Girls, now is the time to conjure the image in your head of Loreli Gilmore’s Dragonfly Inn in Stars Hollow… and then imagine it’s been given an ultimate facelift.
