New England's Autumn Colours

Fly from the UK to Boston, USA.

Kick off your New England adventure in the vibrant city of Boston, where history meets modern charm. Wander through the cobblestone streets of Beacon Hill and indulge in a bowl of New England clam chowder at Quincy Market. With the crisp autumn air and the city’s trees ablaze in hues of red and gold, Boston offers a picturesque introduction to your journey through the region’s storied past and vibrant present.

Next, the journey continues to Kennebunkport, a postcard-perfect harbour town anchored by the Breakwater Inn. Set where the Kennebunk River meets the Atlantic, the inn puts guests within easy reach of tide-washed rocks and salt-tinged evening air. From here, the compact streets of Dock Square invite unhurried browsing among boutiques and galleries, while the waterfront sets the scene for a plate of lobster roll, Maine's defining dish. It's a fitting pause before your holiday presses on to its next coastal chapter. 

Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Bar Harbor, where the Holiday Inn Resort serves as your gateway to adventure. Explore Acadia National Park—a must-see for any nature enthusiast. Feel the mist on your face as waves crash into the rocky shores, and hike the trails surrounded by the fiery colours of autumn foliage. The panoramic views from Cadillac Mountain are nothing short of unforgettable.

Venture into the heart of the White Mountains and make yourself at home at the storied Sunset Hill House Hotel, perched high above the valley in Sugar Hill. From here, a short drive brings you to White Mountains Winery for a special "Meet the Winemakers" experience, sipping handcrafted vintages while taking in the sweeping mountain views. Back at your home base, spend your days exploring scenic trails, breathing in the crisp alpine air, and admiring forests ablaze with autumn colour. 

Your journey continues in Stowe, Vermont, where the iconic von Trapp Family Lodge brings a touch of Alpine charm to the heart of the Green Mountains. Breathe in the crisp mountain air as you wander through Stowe’s picturesque village or follow the winding roads of Smugglers’ Notch for views that will take your breath away. Savour the region’s craft breweries and farm-to-table dining, the perfect way to unwind after a day of discovery. In autumn, the hills seem alive with colour, turning every glance into a postcard-worthy moment.

Discover the quaint charm of Manchester. This picturesque location serves as a perfect base for exploring the Green Mountains. Take a leisurely drive or hike through the rolling hills, and be sure to stop by the local markets to taste Vermont’s famed maple syrup. The area’s tranquillity and natural beauty offer a serene pause in your vibrant itinerary.

Conclude your journey in the heart of The Berkshires at The Red Lion Inn in Stockbridge. This historic inn is the ideal setting to unwind amidst the autumn splendour. Visit the Norman Rockwell Museum for a dose of Americana, or explore the nearby hiking trails for a final embrace of nature’s artistry. As you relax on the inn’s porch, drink in hand, you’ll find the perfect ending to your colourful New England adventure.

Drive from Stockbridge to Boston, then fly to the UK.
