Great Stone Dwelling

New Hampshire


This grand stone edifice – the centerpiece of the Enfield Shaker Museum – also doubles as an atmospheric lodging. On the 3rd and 4th floors are seven single rooms, 11 doubles and two triples. All are spacious and filled with natural light, with pretty wood floors, traditional Shaker furniture and wi-fi, but no air-conditioning or TV.
