A small, rustic Long Island Sound shoreline town, Guilford is charming and inviting, with a lovely old-fashioned village green surrounded by elegant tree-lined streets, historic mansions, modern galleries, quaint boutiques and some great museums. Check out the 1660 Hyland House, the Henry Whitfield State Museum built in 1639, the 1803 Medad Stone Tavern and the Dudley Farm constructed in 1840. Enjoy the lovely sandy Jacobs Beach with the whole family, take a stroll through the Bittner Park or visit Bishop's Orchard to try their wines or pick fresh fruit. Stroll through the Guilford Harbor and enjoy the view of the water.
