Beautiful historic estate in pastoral setting. Several meadow trails cross the property. I have liked Golding trail going through some picturesque woods and along the pond. That said, “forest” in a name is somewhat misleading since most of the trails are mowed paths in meadows.
Our favorite place to take our couples for engagement sessions. Would even recommend this place for a full wedding day honestly. It’s BEAUTIFUL!!
This is one of Litchfield's best kept secrets if you ask me. I go on occasion for walks and to relax & think. There is some gentle slopes, but mainly flat easy walking on sand/gravel paths or mowed fields. There are plenty of resting places (benches) here and there if you are older or have mobility issues. It is peaceful, beautiful, and quiet. I enjoy viewing the gardens around the house and estate. I have taken the tour inside as well. It is a beautiful place to take photographs with gardens, meadows, stone walls etc...
A wonderful place to take a walk or sit under a tree and read a book. There is lots of history here. The state has done a nice job in maintaining the meadows, hummingbird and butterfly gardens. Check out the very cool original manor house. There are marked walks for everyone. Bring some sunscreen and enjoy an afternoon. Best thing, it's free
Amazing place to visit for a walk or just to sit and have a picnic or a seat and watch all the beautiful nature all around you. Quiet, peaceful and lots of great photo possibilities. Some of the trails haven't been kept up lately and it's a shame. But still a lovely walk.
Always fun to visit. Great for wedding pictures, hikes, picnics, etc.
Oh my, what a lovely place! We came here for the first time and it did not disappoint! If you love meadows and wide open spaces, this is for you! We definitely will be back to explore further...Walking trails are very easy to navigate.
This is such a beautiful place and it has become forever part of my history, I was just engaged here. The place is perfect
11.17.23 beautiful loop on a boardwalk so sneakers or hiking boots. Lots of parking. I went solo and felt safe as there were many others on this path too.If you're into photography this is a magical place to take pics from.
The ladies working here are Dutch! So fun to talk Dutch to someone again. Lovely ladies, bought a ton of Dutch goodies. Kroepoek, borrelbootjes, hagelslag, ketjap, drop, sambal, gevulde speculaas. Made my day!
Beautiful restaurant in a beautiful "town green" location. I started with a crock of chili, lots of ground beef and even more vegetables, topped with cheddar cheese and chives, served with the best cornbread ever. I then had two fried oyster tacos wi
Awesome spot! Coffee and cappuccino were both amazing, and the food was delicious! Very cute shop with nice outdoor seating and indoor seating offered in the back. Staff was very friendly and very quick - we only waited about 5 minutes. Highly recomm
Fettuccine Alfredo was cooked perfectly and the white cream sauce was top shelf... Broccoli Rabe, sausage and beans were equally delicious. Please note that the photos indicate about half of the portions served. Everything was so delicious I just c
First of all, our server, Dana, was wonderful. She asked the right questions and was very pleasant, helpful, and accommodating. Having said that, the food was exquisite, and the atmosphere was cozy and charming. We had the oysters 2.0 (incredible)
Great little old school diner. Honestly i like the cash only thing, it reminds me of going out on saturday with my dad to a diner. Service was great and food came quick even with a packed full house. Will be going again!
We stumbled upon Litchfield Pizza when touring New England. Donât be put off by the appearance - itâs a pizza parlor after all, with the fluorescent lights to prove it. But the menu is broad and varied, and the prices are reasonable. The daily s
