If you're looking for the perfect winter getaway, there is no better place than New England. From mountains for skiing to little shops everywhere, a cozy town and a cozy inn may be just what the doctor ordered. Travel and Branded Content Editor for Yankee Magazine, Kim Knox Beckius, shares 4 Top Inns for Winter Getaways in New England.
1. The Red Lion Inn: Stockbridge, MA.
Everything here is themed around Norman Rockwell, based on his iconic 'Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas' painting. Throughout the season, there are Santa-themed brunches and pop-ups including different beverages. There's also a guided behind-the-scenes tour that creates an immersive experience for visitors. 2. Harraseeket Inn: Freeport, ME.
The area is the ideal place for holiday shopping, given that the nearby L.L. Bean flagship store is open 24 hours a day. The inn is within walking distance of all the local shops, perfect to get all your holiday shopping done. Their community tree allows people from all over the world to hang up ornaments and come back in the future to see how the tree has evolved.
3. Westbrook Inn Bed and Breakfast: Westbrook, CT. From local wineries to holiday high tea, if you stay at the Westbrook Inn it's going to feel like Christmas time. And if you choose to stay over from Christmas Eve to Christmas Day, Santa leaves you a locally-made gift.
4. Inn at Ellis River: Jackson, NH. The Inn at Ellis River is one of nine country inns of the White Mountains that get together for a cookie tour the second weekend in December. |

In her new book psychotherapist Niro Feliciano won't give you tips for happiness, but she will give you the keys to finding true contentment. So, what's the difference? Feliciano says that contentment is wanting everything you have while happiness is different but not necessarily better. Happiness, she says, can lead to a comparison mindset.
