Plymouth Rock is reputedly where, in 1620, the creation of the United States began. Nowadays, the area has around 60,000 residents and many tourists – often weekend trippers from Boston or holidaymakers on their way to Cape Cod. Check into a traditional Massachusetts inn or quality chain hotel yourself to explore the shoreline, seafood and history of “America’s Hometown” – bookable on Culture Trip.

With an exterior reminiscent of a French manor house, Mirbeau Inn & Spa feels like it belongs to another time – and that’s just how its husband-and-wife proprietors intend it. Tradition merges with 21st-century amenities, including the gym’s Peloton bikes and the Biotec facial spa treatments. Within a short putt is Pinehills Golf Club, while in-house Bistro & Wine Bar serves (naturally) French-influenced classics such as steak frites to hungry holiday pilgrims.
