New York City is just a short train-ride away, but you'd never know it once you've lost yourself in the bucolic surroundings of the Stonehenge Inn. Less than an hour from the excitement of the big city, you can enjoy the sylvan splendor of one of Connecticut's most exclusive suburbs.
The Stonehenge Inn is fabulously laid out, with a pond and rolling lawns giving way to a thicket of woods. It's conveniently located right off Route 7, yet far enough off the road that you won't hear the traffic. Instead you'll think you're visiting some stately manor house owned by someone with impeccable taste.
There are sixteen guest rooms on the ten-acre property. Make sure and get a room in the Guest House. The flagstone cocktail terrace is perfect for cooling off and winding down in the afternoon. The formal restaurant is one of the finest in an area full of great dining. In the morning, a breakfast basket and The New York Times are delivered to your room. Ridgefield is a quaint town filled with antique shops and small specialty stores, in addition to all the necessary conveniences. You can walk the tree-lined streets of this lovely town or pop over the border into New York State and enjoy a picnic at Pound Ridge Reservation. Explore the coastal towns of Westport and Norwalk just a few miles south. Or stay close to the inn and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The Stonehenge Inn and Restaurant is a classic, great weekend getaway from New York, or it could be the first stop on your travels north into New England.
