Litchfield County, CT
Deep in Connecticut, near the border of Upstate NY, rests one of the most beautiful counties in New England. Litchfield, full of antique shops and tranquil views, is a great place to escape for the weekend. The drive up is only two hours and you'll notice more and more people claiming they bought a summer home in Kent. Stay at Hidden Valley Bed and Breakfast and dine at the numerous fine restaurants scattered around. Go antiquing and more importantly don't forget to take in the beautiful and breathtaking scenery that is northern Connecticut.
