When you think of natural surroundings in New Hampshire the first thing that may come to mind are the state's beautiful forests. While these are certainly stunning (they are where I spend much of my time), there are also bits of nature tucked away in places that you might not expect. One of them is this exquisite garden restaurant in New Hampshire where you can dine in a most beautiful natural setting.

Mile Away Restaurant in Milford has been welcoming guests for over half a century. Originally a farm built in 1746, it was one of the first settlements in the "lost" town of Monson.

The farm was converted into a restaurant in 1967 and was subsequently purchased by the Murphy family, who still manage it today.

New Hampshire's seacoast is very small, so it's important to take advantage of each and every opportunity to explore its treasures. From its beaches and state parks to its historic sites, there's a lot packed into this small area. One other thing that is abundant along the seacoast is the wide variety of great restaurants, with cuisine to suit all tastes. Latitudes in New Castle, one of the great spots for waterfront dining in New Hampshire, offers both great food and great scenery.

When you think of New Hampshire, you may not think of it being a hot spot for great ethnic food. But due to the New England region's diverse population, nothing could be further from the truth. If you can think of a certain international cuisine, chances are you can find it somewhere in the Granite State. I love to switch up the traditional restaurant offerings from time to time and if you are a fan of Greek food, Amphora Restaurant & Taverna in Derry is one to put on your must-visit list!

Amphora Restaurant & Taverna in Derry takes its name from the classic vessel from ancient times with a pointed base and characteristic shape.
