      Top Five Small Towns: New England
      By Forbes Travel Guide Editor Hayley Bosch

      December 11, 2011

      Our last small town roundup was our Mid-Atlantic favorites — Cape May, New Hope and Annapolis made the list. This time, we’ve moved up the coast to beautiful New England. With picturesque villages scattered throughout the region and handfuls of history, choosing just five of our favorite towns proved to be tough. Nevertheless, we’ve highlighted our must-see spots in the slideshow below. After you flip through the photos, let us know your favorite small town getaway.

      About Forbes Travel Guide Editor Hayley Bosch

      Majoring in French and Italian in college yielded some of the best food (in my own humble opinion) and vacations (everyone wants to travel with someone who’s fluent) that I could imagine. And as a Content Editor at Forbes Travel Guide, I’m able to focus on my passion for traveling and eating — with a refined palate, of course. I love to write about my adventures; it’s a way of telling my story. I seek out everything from marathons in cities I’ve never explored to restaurants off the beaten path. When I’m not eating my way through my world travels, I’m chatting with our Tastemakers to help tell their stories of travel, food and business.
