NEW YORK STATE OF MIND

Stockholm beyond ABBA elephant parade Cork weekend

Farmhouse Catskills is a stunning 75-room, three-suite hotel set in a forest in Upstate New York. Embodying a country inn, it features a farm-to-table restaurant, speakeasy-inspired bar, terrace and garden complete with firepits, and a 150-year-old barn-cum-creative studio and exhibition space. With a host of nature-embracing pursuits on offer nearby, from hiking and kayaking to horse-riding and skiing, it brings to mind the fictional Kellerman’s resort from Dirty Dancing (only a little more chic, and minus Patrick Swayze), designhotels.com/farmhouse-catskills.
