RECREATION IN PLYMOUTH

America's hometown offers you an opportunity to view your nation's history at its beginning. The Auberge Gladstone is a step away from landmarks such as Plymouth Rock, Forefathers Monument and Pilgrim Hall, America's oldest public museum where you can see artifacts from the Mayflower.

The waterfront Nelson Street park, pictured above, is within walking distance of the guest house, and features a splash pad, walking trails, a playground, and a healthy food kiosk. Morton Pond Park is another local favorite spot where you can swim in cool clear water and walk, bike, or drive around the pond to find your own private picnic spot.
