Fodor's Expert Review Brook Farm Inn

Tucked away in a wooded glen a short distance from Tanglewood, this cozy 1880s inn often has classical music playing in the fireplace-lighted library; the breakfast room, overlooking the glen, serves afternoon tea with homemade scones on weekends. Guest rooms have antique furnishings, romantic style, and, in some, fireplaces, wicker rocking chairs, and tiled bathrooms; the carriage house offers a pair of handicap-accessible rooms.
