Newfane, which is a bit north of Brattleboro and 75 mi/120 km southeast of Burlington, is one of the most photographed villages in Vermont.
Its classic town green, or square, is set off by a graceful white church, courthouse, a country inn and a row of Federalist houses. The Four Columns Inn has been beautifully restored and offers fine dining as well as lodging.
Across the road, you'll find a number of antiques stores. For more antiques, go just north of town to Vermont's oldest and largest flea market—it's open on Sunday in the warm-weather months and wraps up its season in October.
