Relax and unwind as we ignite inspiration with stunning surroundings, exclusive property use, and indoor and outdoor spaces at The Manor House Inn. Located in Norfolk, CT, our inn welcomes groups for personal and professional retreats rooted in nature-immersive wellness traditions in Litchfield Hills and only 2.5 hrs away from New York City, Boston, and about an hour from Albany, NY.

Surrounded by five acres of lawn, gardens, and woodlands, the Manor House offers a serene, inspiring setting for wellness practitioners, conscious business leaders, B-Corp founders, and mission-driven professionals. Whether you're guiding personal transformation or building organizations rooted in purpose, The Manor House supports deep work and reflective thinking. If you're planning a group retreat with your own leadership and programming, we'd love to collaborate. 

Norfolk and the surrounding region have long held a legacy of supporting wellbeing, from the contemplative grounds of the Alders Estate to the artistic and ecological richness of Northwest Connecticut. We proudly carry that legacy forward—offering a space where vision, rest, and meaningful connection flourish.  Visit Flourishing Space to learn about workshop experiences available onsite.
