WELCOME TO OUR GUEST HOUSE

Berkshires Shirakaba in the spring

Leave it all. Just for awhile.

Come away to the ancient hills and cool forests we call the Berkshires. Breathe our clean air, drink our clear water, toss your head back and see stars as if you'd never seen them before.

Stay at an inn like none you've seen before. Berkshires Shirakaba is a Japanese-American guest house set high on a wooded ridgetop in the far western Massachusetts village of New Ashford.

As you come up the winding drive, look for the elegant white birches that give Shirakaba its Japanese name. It's a fitting choice for this most gracious guest house.
