Pomfret

Pomfret, one of the grandest towns in the region, was once known as the inland Newport because it attracted the wealthy, who summered here in large "cottages." Today it is a quiet stop-off along Route 169, designated by the National Scenic Byway Program as one of the most picturesque in the country.
