Lenox Bed And Breakfast

If you have ever lingered over such timeless novels such as Edith Wharton's The Age of Innocence and imagined the lives of the characters living in the Gilded Age, or even the lives of the authors who created such beautiful work; you will enjoy an escape to Hampton Terrace Bed and Breakfast in Lenox, Massachusetts, located in the legendary Berkshire Hills. Berkshire Hills was the home of such literary giants as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Mark Twain, Edith Wharton, and Henry James. It is unsurprising that the Berkshires quickly became a cultural haven, as well, as many of the aristocratic families of the late 19th century began escaping to Lenox for glamorous retreats from hectic city life.

At Hampton Terrace Bed and Breakfast, we offer the experience of living this romance. The setting of many Gilded Age novels, Lenox offers a rare chance to experience a treasured part of this country's rich history. Literary luminaries and the families of early American "royalty" alike built summer homes in Lenox, Massachusetts, that have since become legends. Many of these homes have been converted to museums or venues for music and theater. But historic Hampton Terrace, long owned by the Struthers family of Lenox, became a luxurious bed and breakfast.

The Main House, built in 1897, offers five completely renovated guest rooms. We offer new millennium luxury to complement the decadence and the romance of the Gilded Age. Each room is decorated with antiques, and is equipped with a TV/VCR, a private bath, and more. To complete the experience, each room offers a warm and romantic fireplace, and either a Jacuzzi or a claw-foot tub. The Carriage House, built in 1897 and updated in 2001, is every bit as luxurious, with six King or Queen rooms. Each splendid room has a private bath, an in-room TV/VCR, an oversized Jacuzzi tub, a fireplace, and vintage furniture. We also have a new heated, grotto-style pool, by which are constructed our new King Suites. The King Suites are truly decadent: each one features a private entrance, a sitting porch, a living room area with a fold-out couch, a fireplace, a two-person 7' x 7' corner Jacuzzi, a wet bar, a fridge, a four-poster canopy king bed, a TV with a DVD player, and a luxurious private bath.

Many of the aristocratic families of 19th-century America, such as the Morgans, Astors, Vanderbilts, Westinghouses, and Carnegies, craved a retreat from the stress and busy life of the city--for many of the same reasons we do today. They built summer homes in Lenox, Massachusetts, after hearing of the beauty and culture in the Berkshires. Hampton Terrace, one of the original Lenox homes built specifically for luxury and relaxation, is still a relaxing retreat, and now it is a luxurious bed and breakfast, as well.
