of the Forty 1° North
marina to take advantage of the resort’s
superb waterfront
setting. The hotel and
marina, which opened
in 2010, is a modern
addition to the historic
harbor town of Newport. Some of the 28
rooms have balconies
and bay views; all have
gas fireplaces and come
with iPads loaded with
the daily newspapers.
The hotel is just steps
from the restaurants

VIRGINIA
Keswick Hall • Keswick
This sprawling Tuscan-style villa
has the glamour and romance to
match its Virginia hunt country
surroundings. The 48-room hotel
is on a 600-acre country estate but
is just a short drive to downtown
Charlottesville and historic sites
such as Monticello. There’s plenty
to do on-site: play a round of golf
on the 18-hole Arnold Palmer
course, lounge by the infinity edge
pool on the piazza, sip a glass of
sherry by the library fire or play a
late-night game of snooker in the
snooker room. Doubles from $395;
