    The 7C Herb Garden Bed & Breakfast is located on four sunny hillside acres of the southern Litchfield Hills in the town of Washington, CT. Several large maple trees provide plenty of shade during the warm summer days. A short drive to Washington Depot or to New Preston Village will lead you to antique shops, restaurants, and more. Lake Waramaug is just 2 miles north, Steep Rock State Park is 3 miles south, and Mt. Tom State Park is 4 miles east, where you will have ample opportunity for hiking, biking, canoeing, swimming, or simply relaxing. Families with children will find a child friendly "home away from home" with children's books, games, toys, as well as a spacious outdoor area that includes a fully equipped sandbox and swings for both toddlers and Tarzan types! Whether you are single, a couple, or a family of seven, you will definitely enjoy a relaxing and restful stay in this spacious country setting.

    We were fleeing the hurricane when we booked a night at Hansel & Alicia Collins' B&B -- we liked it so much we stayed another night, generous, warm, informal people with a great attitude, comfortable rooms, big delicious breakfast. Very low key. We love them.

    We stayed here with our 3 and 7 year old kids as a stopover on our way to the Berkshires, and so glad we did. They enjoyed having the private room with 2 beds, and my husband and I had a room with a queen, with a private bathroom for our family. The innkeepers made us a lovely country breakfast, and enjoyed getting the history of their warm family, and a history lesson of the area. They were charming and caring. Would recommend it for a family.

    pleasant country getaway
