Just Relax in the Library, Read, Knit, or Listen to MusicThough you can do this at home, how often do you? And at the Winthrop Estate, you can find the time to surround yourself with books, read for a few hours, and enjoy the classic wood paneled library, with a blazing fire perhaps, and a cup of tea, pick up the needles and some yarn from our knitting basket, and wile away the afternoon... Ahhh... |
