GEORGE LATIMER
Westchester County is rich in historical , cultural and natural attractions . Lyndhurst is a fine example of all three , one of the grandest homes ever built in America in one the most spectacular settings . Perhaps you noticed it in HBO ’ s recent series , The Gilded Age .
Close by , you ’ ll find thousands of acres of public parks , preserves , trails , golf courses and gardens . You ’ ll encounter farmers , chefs , and craft beverage makers extending a farmto-table tradition that goes back centuries , when our fertile soil fed the burgeoning cities of the American Northeast . You ’ ll enjoy intimate B & Bs , luxurious spa accommodations , and world-class shopping . And always , something entertaining and inspiring to do here – in any season .
Enjoy the Show , and return soon to explore , unwind and to enjoy Westchester ’ s activities , scenery and hospitality .
