Pine Needles Bed and Breakfast is located in the heart of historic Massachusetts, providing comfortable lodging accommodations a short distance away from several places of interest in New England. Lowell Heritage National Park and historic Concord are only 10 to 15 minutes away, and Boston is just 30 minutes east of the inn. Students and their families will appreciate the close proximity of the Harvard, M.I.T., University of Massachusetts, and Groton School, and Lawrence Academy campuses.

The Pine Needles offers three spacious guest rooms, each with a unique and inviting theme. Every room features a private bath along with a gas fireplace, air conditioning, and cable television. A fax machine, copy machine, and Internet access are available for use in the upstairs center hall.

Enjoy a full breakfast served from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. each morning in the beautiful dining room or, weather permitting, on the spacious deck. Early risers may serve themselves with a continental fare that includes fresh fruit, cereal, toast, muffins, and coffee.

While in Westford, you can enjoy cultural events at the Parish Center for the Arts, including concerts by internationally know artists in the winter months. Visit nearby Lowell National Park to tour a working textile mill, or, from May to October, take the Canal tour though the locks. In historic Concord, walk the battlefield of the Battle of Concord and Lexington on the Minuteman Trail. Explore the Concord Museum, and visit the homes of literary wonders such as Louisa May Alcott, Henry David Thoreau, and Ralph Waldo Emerson. In Boston, only 40 minutes away, you can walk the Freedom Trail in Boston's north end or stop to visit Paul Revere's house, the old North Church, or Quincy market.

Those looking for some activity in the Five College /Pioneer Valley area won't have far to go. Golfers will find a number of public courses in neighboring towns.

Take a walk around Walden Pond, or walk or cycle the 2,000 acres of trails maintained by the Massachusetts Conservation Society. Ski in Nashoba Valley, or skate on the ponds when it is cold enough.

Swimming and canoeing are wonderful warm weather activities, or experience Kimball's, where you can stop for homemade ice cream and enjoy miniature golf, bumper boats, and their par-3 golf course. And of course, antique shops abound throughout the area, while tax-free shopping is only minutes away in nearby Nashua, New Hampshire.

Pine Needles, the Bed and Breakfast that makes you smile, puts you within easy reach of everything historic in Massachusetts.
