When it comes to planning a winter staycation, it has to be a place that not only embodies charm and warmth, but it must also be surrounded by an equally warm and charming town. The Inn at Stonington delivers on both fronts, receiving high praise from Connecticut Magazine, who likened it to “a piece of Nantucket.” Check out this dream escape below:
The Inn at Stonington offers stunning views and plenty of New England style charm.
Overlooking Fisher's Island Sound, you can enjoy wonderful views even in the middle of winter. You may even recognize this place as the backdrop from the Meryl Streep, Tommy Lee Jones movie "Hope Springs".
You'll love the inviting atmosphere and the many fireplaces.
Nearly every room in this building is equipped with a fireplace, which means fireside relaxation for you. So take advantage of the continental style breakfast and complimentary wine and cheese in the evening.
That means every guest experience is unique. And incredibly cozy! The 18th century escape is among the most romantic in the state, and may leave you feeling like you never want to leave. But you'll definitely want to explore the surrounding area.

You'll be in a truly historic village that has barely changed over the last century.
Quaint and traditional are embodied in the town and borough of Stonington. You'll find plenty of friendly faces and colonial architecture as you wander the streets.
You don't want to feel like it's cold and dreary out. You want it to feel like its festive and fun! So you'll appreciate the holiday decor as you explore the variety of restaurants, shops, and galleries.
Cannon Square lights up at night with its large Christmas tree, and the twinkling lights that cover the square's statues and monuments. And this is all within walking distance from the inn.

The inn is located at 60 Water Street Stonington, CT 06378.
