Had so much fun during our girl’s weekend in Salisbury, CT! We loved staying at @9academyct : An inspired guesthouse for the modern traveller featuring three luxurious suites centrally located in the heart of charming Salisbury village. Owners Charles Teti and Aidan Cassidy have backgrounds in high-end fashion and residential interiors, and it shows in this beautiful property. Every detail is so well thought out and very comfortable. While in Salisbury we: enjoyed tacos on taco night at the @whitehart_inn , dinner at @fern_lakeville , snacks from @labonnes , breakfast at @sweetwilliamsbakery . We hiked a portion of the Appalachian Trail, stopping along the way to take in the beautiful natural scenery, and all in all thoroughly enjoyed imagining we lived in Salisbury! Highly recommend staying or having your guests stay at @9academyct ! #salisburyct #litchfieldcounty #nwct #travel #getaway
