Listen to the church bells ring from the nearby green and you might feel that the village of Washington, Connecticut, has changed little since the time of its namesake, George Washington. Well, that is, until you enter the foremost accommodation in the region, The Mayflower Inn, and see the fantastic new redesign. The exquisite country retreat set on 58 private acres and now part of the Auberge Resorts Collection, recently debuted a striking new interior thanks to New York-based designer Celerie Kemble. The entirety of the Inn’s century-old main house has a vibrant new color palette, including pastel pinks and greens to flowery drapery. Also of note, acclaimed chef April Bloomfield joins the property as chef-in-residence this fall. The James Beard award-winning chef will oversee all dining outlets at the Inn through the end of 2020, including the hotel’s new restaurant, The Garden Room, featuring a four-course tasting menu offered Thursday through Saturday evenings. Before dinner, stroll the grounds, dotted with stone walls and a running stream, and you’ll feel like lord of the manor.
