52 Weekend Getaways: Washington, CT
Relax already.
The Mayflower Inn is the ultimate destination spa — 20,000 gorgeous square feet for pampering, floor-to-ceiling windows looking out to the surrounding Connecticut woodland, and unlimited services available to the guests who barely have to change out of their robes during their stay. New to the menu: a midnight body treatment with exfoliation and a soothing massage using warm liquid honey from a local beehive. It’s sticky going at times, but leaves the skin wonderfully soft and supple. 118 Woodbury Rd. (Rte. 47), Washington, CT, 860-868-9466, mayflowerinn.com.
