I highly recommend the TOPIA INN in Adams, MA. . . . a great get away in the Berkshires. It is an all organic bed and breakfast, and reasonably priced. Leave YOUR shampoo, conditioner and deoderant at home . . . bring your brush and toothbrush . . . . They need you to use their stuff. . . . and it is okay, and sometimes better. They don't want your stuff messing with their inn.
Once we arrived, we had to take off our shoes, and Nina showed us around. . . our room and the breakfast room.
Our room was CLEAN, and I mean CLEAN. . . like the place had opened YESTERDAY . . . and not three years ago. The bedding is organic. Their cleaning products are organic. The lights are LED lights. They do have A/C and sateliite TV for the flat screens in each room. It is a CLEAN place.
The inn is heated with vegetable oil. They provide their own electricity. They have solar panels on the room, and the breakfast room has the meter.
Our first breakfast was poached pears with a mango syrup, which was totally yummy. Followed by a crustless quiche and banana bread made with applesauce. Again. . . yummy. Organic tea and coffee (with caffeine).
Our second breakfast was a banana smoothie with mango lemonade and then the most amazing STEAMED french toast. OMG. . . . delicisou.
Everything is certified organic, except for the produce that they grow themselves.
Each of the nine rooms have different themes, and we stayed in the french room. Two rooms have floating beds, which would be cool to try.
