Think of New England and what springs to mind? The rich reds and flashing yellows of the autumn foliage for starters, stretching for mile upon mile through rolling countryside. White clapboard houses and churches with steeples, nestled cosily amid forested valleys. The Mayflower and Plymouth Rock. The coast, fresh seafood, and bobbing yachts. Oh, and don't forget Boston, Massachusetts, the largest city in New England and one of the oldest in the USA. This region is beauty, history and excitement, all wrapped up in one.
Come on New England holidays for the scenery, and you won't be disappointed. There are mountains, forests, pastureland and lakes in this incredibly varied region, making for some spectacular drives and hikes. Pick your way along the Long Trail or sections of the Appalachian Trail; or sit back and enjoy the view as you wind your way through the back roads and backwoods on four wheels. The lakes and rivers make for great watersports and fishing too, while there's fantastic mountain skiing come winter.
The coast comes into its own in the summer months, when the beaches come alive with sunbathers, sailors and families picnicking on the sands. There's islands to explore too, like upscale Martha's Vineyard and laid-back Block Island, plus superb seafood served up everywhere from restaurants to clam shacks. But the coast's not just for summer: enticing towns like Newport and Mystic are a joy to explore anytime, and the lobster boats sail out of Portland throughout the year.
City life is also a winner on New England holidays.Visit Boston, Providence, Portland or Bridgeport and you'll discover fascinating historical sites, superb shopping, awesome museums and vibrant neighbourhoods where the party never stops.
