Step back in time and experience the luxury, seclusion, and charm of this historic western Massachusetts country estate. Driving between the massive stone pillars of the approach road to Blantyre, a 1902 Tudor estate turned country hotel in Lenox, feels like entering a more gracious time and place. The road winds up past open fields, with dense forest in the distance, finally revealing the brick and stone mansion—a commanding presence at the top of the hill.
