Crosby, Stills and Nash to play at Tanglewood.
Crosby, Stills and Nash are coming to Tanglewood on Wednesday, September 1, 2010, at 7:30pm. Forty years of creative partnership, and still going strong.
Book a room at our Lenox bed and breakfast early for this big event.
Jazz pianist and icon Herbie Hancock brings The Imagine Project to Tanglewood for one night, Monday, August 9, 2010. The show will take place at 7:30 pm at Koussevitzky Music Shed. We currently have a few openings that night at our Lenox MA bed and breakfast, and we will happily tell you our secret route to Tanglewood. Seize the moment, and experience this magnificent work of art.
Herbie Hancock has said, “Music transcends the barriers between people. It utilizes the universal language of music to express its central themes of peace and global responsibility” (http://www.herbiehancock.com/). Music fans will be delighted by the talented and diverse line-up of international musicians involved in The Imagine Project.
Don't miss Herbie Hancock and The Imagine Project at Tanglewood.
Once you are comfortably installed in your room at our bed and breakfast Lenox, take some time to explore our wonderful corner of the Berkshires. After an emotionally stirring evening of music by Herbie Hancock and a host of other musicians, spend a quiet day in the woods. Stroll through our gardens, or allow us to recommend a nearby day hike. It’s the perfect way to round out a trip to Tanglewood.
An hour south of our Lenox MA bed and breakfast in Connecticut, the Appalachian Trail follows the Housatonic River for several miles. We hiked it in May, and were astounded by the multitude of colorful wildflowers along the trail and the lovely views of the river and valley.
Start west of Cornwall Bridge, and join the Appalachian Trail at Breadloaf Mountain (where you will delight in the views of the Housatonic River and Valley). Head south along the trail, descending into the valley where you’ll walk along the west bank of the wide Housatonic River. There are many good spots to stop and enjoy a picnic while enjoying expansive views. Leaving the AT near the town of Kent makes a great day hike.
We love helping guests of our Berkshires bed and breakfast hike part of the Appalachian Trail. To facilitate your experience, we’ll escort you to your end point, where you can drop your vehicle and catch a ride with us to your starting point.
By evening time, you’ll be ready to relax with a glass of wine and a plate of cheese at our bed and breakfast Lenox.

The Bidwell House, a beautiful example of early New England architecture, opens for the season on May 27, 2010. The oldest part of the building was built in 1750, and additional sections were added in 1790 and 1836. This is a must see for anyone interested in early American architecture.
Once you’ve amply admired the old parsonage, take some time to wander through the lovingly maintained grounds – nearly 200-acres of them.
The Bidwell House is about 10 miles south of our Lee Massachusetts bed and breakfast. It’s a quick drive, or a very pleasant bike ride. If you intend to bike, be sure to eat a hearty breakfast!
Mark your calendars and book a room at our Lenox MA bed and breakfast, for it’s almost time for Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival Opening Gala. The big event takes place Saturday, June 19, 2010, at 6pm in the Ted Shawn Theatre.
