Williamsburg is a lovely New England town with approximately 2000 residents. It is situated at the foothills of the Berkshires and is popular for biking and hiking. There are many lovely country roads to explore either on foot, bike or car. It is surrounded by the lovely towns of Goshen, Chesterfield, Cummington and Ashfield. Collectively, these towns are referred to as “the Hilltowns”.

Williamsburg has several very nice restaurants, a wonderful General Store, historic museum, and several churches. Beginning in May of 2011, a new farmers’ market known as the Burgy Thursday Market has been held in the center of Williamsburg on Thursdays from 2:30 to 7:00 PM. Twin Maples Farm is a vendor, and we encourage you to visit and support this community venture. Williamsburg’s close proximity to Northampton and I-91 make it an ideal location with a country feeling.
