"An opulent country house in the Berkshires, staying at Blantyre is like being transported into a Jane Austen novel. A historic mansion with turrets, towers, gargoyles, and an interior of burnished wood, overstuffed chairs, heirloom fixtures and damask walls, Blantyre whisks you away to a time when pleasures were simpler and more refined.   With only eight rooms in the main house, four guest cottages, and a 10-room carriage house, Blantyre spares nothing when it comes to recreating Victorian luxury."  [Kiwi Collection]   In the attached article, DailyCandy picks Blantyre as a road trip destination in its review of Gilded Age home.
