Fantastic Shopping and Lodging in North Conway

Monday, March 21st, 2011

It’s that time of year when you start to get tired of the winter boots and long sleeved gear for the cold weather that you’ve been wearing since the beginning of November.  You start to think about the warmth ahead and how you’d love to spend a weekend preparing your wardrobe for the sunshine filled days coming along.  Rather than rushing and squeezing all your spring shopping into one day, why don’t you take your loved ones with you for a relaxing weekend get away?

What could be a better place for wrapping up the winter season and getting in some more winter activities than North Conway?  The North Conway Village has a wide range of premier shopping with over 60 outlets to meet all of your needs.  Spend the day browsing in the outlets and enjoy the beautiful scenery that the Mt. Washington Valley has to naturally offer to its visitors.  The family will love getting the chance to say bye to winter here, and will love saying hello to spring while shopping for that perfect spring get away outfit!

All of that shopping and walking around in the fresh air to the outlets will make you tired though, so you’ll need to book your reservations to stay with us for some rest at the Stonehurst Manor.  Once you’re here you can drop off your bags in your room and come back down for some tasty treats to satisfy your hunger and get ready for the next day of shopping in the village.

We’re ready at 1-800-525-9100 to book your weekend stay with us!

Activities in Mt. Washington Valley

Monday, May 17th, 2010

It never stops here in the Valley.  As the temperature warms up so does the excitement.  Take a look at this view of the snow-capped Presidential mountain range.  I took this photo on a hike we took today.  While you enjoy your stay at the Stonehurst Manor, get ready for your day bright and early because there is so much to do that you may not make it back until dinner time!  Which is quite all right because delicious and unique New England cuisine will be waiting for you after a long hiking trip.

Right now, as you think about taking time off, make sure you know the activities that are available during the season of your travel.  Activities in Mt. Washington Valley are numerous and local businesses and non-profits have come up with some great ideas to entertain you.  Coming up, look out for Scotland in the Valley, which comes complete with a whiskey tasting.  The Balloon Festival is great opportunity to get a hot air balloon ride.

Activities in Mt. Washington Valley can also be found in the woods through hiking or on the green with the Valley’s many beautiful golf courses.  Art museums and lakes or bike paths and the old Victorian train station in the middle of Schouler Park all offer different ways to experience North Conway.

When you walk out of the Stonehurst Manor, you have so many options of something to do.  With the White Mountains as our playground there is anything to fit your needs or interests.  Or if you don’t feel like going out, you can always stay in!  With Stonehurst’s beautiful décor, welcoming fireplaces, vibrant gardens and cozy rooms you won’t find yourself bored on their grounds either!

BWoodsCanopyTour09     BWoodsCanopyPlatform

Thrill seekers and adventurous nature lovers alike will NEVER forget the Canopy Tour at Bretton Woods! It’s the longest tree-top zip line tour in New England at 3.5 hours and well worth every minute. You descend over 1,000 feet in elevation on dual-cables (very safe) between a series of platforms with hiking trails and suspension bridges as connectors. Adventure Guides accompany you all the way and describe the surrounding area, its natural history and other White Mountains lore. Less adventurous but “what the heck” types may want to try their 20-minute Williwaw Dual Racing Zip to get a sampling of what it’s all about. Laughing while you scream is part of the fun!
