Wants you To KNOW

The Town of Litchfield has something for everyone. Stroll through wide-open spaces and scenic walking trails at the White Memorial Foundation, then wander the idyllic Town center with its picturesque green, charming shops, inviting restaurants, and unique hotels. Discover the rich history of Litchfield in the Litchfield History Museum, explore the serene beauty of Topsmead State Forest, or step back in time at the Tapping Reeve House and Law School—the first law school in the nation. From there, venture just a few minutes to Bantam for ice cream and a visit to Bantam River Park, or head to Northfield for sweeping, picture-perfect views. A quick drive to the Milton Historic District offers yet another taste of true New England charm. Just 2 hours and 12 minutes from Manhattan and about 2½ hours from Boston, Litchfield is the perfect escape, close enough for convenience, yet far enough to feel worlds away.
