Connecticut bed and breakfast accommodation for a taste of rural America
Connecticut bed and breakfast establishments form an important part of the tourism infrastructure of this favorite travel destination. Connecticut has many of the attractions that make New England such a popular place for the vacationer -- colonial history, broad beaches, seaside villages with rich naval histories and peaceful countryside.
Connecticut is located in the New England region of the northeastern USA. Southwestern Connecticut is considered part of the New York metropolitan area because of its close proximity to the city. Many visitors fly into New York then transfer to B&Bs, lodges and inns in Connecticut. And New Yorkers who are tired of the Big Apple regularly escape for Connecticut B&B weekends in bed and breakfast establishments, lodges and inns. As bed and breakfast owners will tell their guests, Connecticut is one of the most densely populated states in the Union. It has just 3,4 million residents, making it the 29th most populous state – but it is ranked 48th in area, 
making it the 4th most densely populated state.
Called the "Constitution State", Connecticut has a long history dating from the early colonial times, and was influential in the development of early American government. As witnessed by the hundreds of Connecticut bed and breakfasts the state is a popular resort area with its 250-mile Long Island Sound shoreline and many inland lakes. Among the major points of interest are Yale University's Gallery of Fine Arts and Peabody Museum. Other famous museums include the P. T. Barnum, Winchester Gun, and American Clock and Watch. The town of Mystic features a re-created 19th-century New England seaport and the Mystic Marine Life Aquarium. There are B&Bs close to all tourist attractions.
New England is true to its image of a world with beautiful beaches, rolling hills, picturesque lodges and inns, fascinating history andthe glitzy attraction of the casino. Connecticut is typical of New England. There are the beautiful Litchfield Hills, the 
Housatonic River and the Connecticut River Valley.

Connecticut's diversity is further reflected in the variety of state parks, beaches, quaint village greens, and hiking and biking trails.
