Boston & New England holidays

Make like well-heeled New Yorkers who head off on holidays to Boston and New England for their weekend escapes for those Atlantic Ocean views, palatial summer houses, multi-course seafood dinners and romantic retreats. New England has plenty of chic coastal charm, and the city of Boston – home to the Red Sox, ‘Cheers’ and the Freedom Trail – isn’t far behind, with its Instagrammable skyline, beautiful brownstones, literary history and beloved pedal swan boats.

Don floaty dresses, tailored shorts and floppy sunhats as you navigate the charming towns of New England, meandering along beautiful coastline in Kennebunkport or sinking into the white beaches of sailing capital Rhode Island. Think of it as a swish grown-up summer camp for adults and a delight for kids, with the super soft sands and shallow waters of Cape Cod ideal for paddling and spotting frolicking seals. Preppy, nostalgic and full of old-fashioned charm, it’s a world away from chain restaurants and big brand shops and the kind of place where sepia coloured photographs come back to life. Watch schooners sail by as you tuck into an Atlantic swordfish dinner on the exclusive Massachusetts island of Martha’s Vineyard, try your hand at fly-fishing in leafy Vermont and breathe in giddy scents of pine and sea air as you cycle to lobster shacks and rocky beaches in Maine.

Boston and New England holidays in busy but beautiful autumn are the star of the show, when foliage turns astonishing shades of burnt orange, rusty red and gold. And as the sound of crickets linger late into the night and the ocean turns a violet shade, there’s the promise of pumpkin patches, crackling fires and a whole new season of adventure.
