From this fun, affordable motel, launch your family’s Berkshires adventure

The folks at Briarcliff, a re-imagined classic 1960s motel on scenic Route 7 between Stockbridge and Great Barrington, like to say that their comfy, stylish rooms are Instagram-worthy, which will appeal to the kids. But so will everything about your stay in the bed and breakfast, from the homemade granola and muffins in the morning to making new friends around the firepit at night. And there is so much to do in between, from skiing at nearby Butternut to hiking Monument Mountain (the trail is right across from the Briarcliff) to touring the Norman Rockwell Museum or MassMOCA to sitting on the lawn for a Tanglewood concert. Everything it just minutes away, and your hosts will be happy to help you plan a fun family itinerary.

Resort asks: Is there a better place for vacationing families than Cape Cod?

Cape Cod has been entertaining families for decades, and you can join in the fun when you book a fully furnished condo unit at Seawinds II in Dennisport. You can walk from your one- or two-bedroom unit (with gas fireplace and kitchen) to a private sandy beach, hit the pool at a nearby sister resort – or go exploring! Catch a wave at one of the National Seashore’s oceanside beaches, do some funky shopping in Hyannis, catch a whale-watch boat out of Provincetown, go biking on the Cape Cod Rail Trail, visit a nature sanctuary or museum or lighthouse. See some local theater, check out a concert and dine on the freshest seafood the coast has to offer.
