"Grand and manicured on the outside, but updated for fun inside, this New England escape is where I linger in the yellow parlor and quiet library, and take in Celerie Kemble’s deft mix—mustard walls, striped sofas, tasseled chairs, floral gallery walls, and antiques that somehow read utterly relaxing. It draws weekender crowds who want fantastic food, outdoorsy diversions, and an unforgettable spa; in fall I cozy up for s’mores by the fire, join seasonal cooking classes focused on harvest ingredients, and book autumn‑inspired treatments like pumpkin facials and apple cider massages." - Jessica Chapel

"Located in Litchfield County and transformed from a boarding school into an inn in 1920, this Auberge property balances New England tradition—four-poster beds, gleaming wood floors, chintz—with a modern redesign by Celerie Kemble that introduces witty handmade furniture, bold artwork, and refreshed color palettes. Spa programming is anchored by an imported Well wellness concept that blends Eastern and Western practices, and the country-chic Garden Room offers seasonally changing dishes such as turnips à la bourguignon, kale gnudi, and fried quail." - Nicholas DeRenzo
"A rustic-chic inn in Washington, Connecticut, offering a single tennis court surrounded by New England scenery, ideal for a laid-back tennis experience."
