Boston, the progressive capital of Massachusetts is the official Gateway to New England and is packed full of charming neighbourhoods and steeped in history.  Follow the 2.5-mile Freedom Trail to learn more about the people who shaped the country’s history.  Whilst in Massachusetts, be sure to experience the charm of Cape Cod, Nantucket and the exclusive island of Martha’s Vineyard, offering fine dining, soft sands, yachting and whale-watching opportunities.

The inland state of Vermont conjures images of white clapboard churches, red farm barns, forested landscape and covered bridges.  Home to Ben & Jerry’s ice cream and the USA’s biggest producer of maple syrup, it’s a great place to visit for those with a sweet tooth.  Although one of the smallest, least-populated states in the US it offers plenty to do such as National Parks, skiing and museums.

The wild rocky coast of Maine with its fishing harbours and lighthouses, gives way to tall pines and beautiful lakes and mountains, home to rainbow trout and the highest population of Moose in the country (with around 75,000 roaming the state).  The start (or end) of the Appalachian Trail can also be found in Maine on Mount Katahdin in Baxter State Park.

Connecticut, birthplace of the famous showman, P.T. Barnum is home to several famous places of interest such as Yale University, Mystic Seaport and Mark Twain House, all of which you can pay a visit to whilst exploring this compact, but charming state.

Nicknamed the Ocean State, Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the nation, but it certainly isn’t short on personality.  The colonial seaside towns and scenic shores make it a popular destination for sailing, surfing and fishing. Take in the beautiful coastal scenery as you walk along the 3.5-mile Newport cliff walk.

New Hampshire, also known as The Granite State, is known for its natural beauty, highlighted by its valleys, rivers, lakes and mountains.  It’s not surprising that this state is ranked one of the top places to live in the USA with its small, picturesque towns and vast stretches of wilderness.  Lake Winnipesaukee is possibly its best-known inland resort and its highest mountain, Mount Washington stands at over 6,000 ft in the White Mountains which also forms part of the Appalachian trail. 

Wherever your journey takes you, and whenever you plan to visit, there is plenty to explore in New England.
