Tucked away in Litchfield County is a tiny town with a not so tiny garden. Open only two days of the week, this secret escape is nothing short of magical. If you love the idea of strolling lazily past bright and vibrant flowers, the Hollister House Garden is calling your name. It offers quiet, serenity, and a fun way to explore the outdoors for folks who aren’t interested in the stress of hiking. Check it out:

Hollister House Garden is a classic, English-style garden surrounding a quaint 18th century style home. The red house is dripping with charm, but it disappears into the background when compared to its vibrant surroundings. The house sits on twenty-five acres of countryside so you'll definitely feel like you're in a secluded paradise.
