With freezing temps, messy snow and post-holiday recoveries, winter can be a dreadful time of year for the U.S. One way to cure your holiday hangover: escape to a warm and cozy B&B. Read on for a few of our favorites, perfect for turning dreary winter months into refreshing and relaxing retreats.

Not all B&Bs are great for all seasons, but that's where The Inn at Bowman's Hill stands out from the pack. Located in the historic town of New Hope, Pennslyvania, this inn is the ideal tranquil home away from home all year round, but is extra beautiful in the winter months. Just 60 minutes from Philadelphia and 90 minutes from New York City, guests can book a couples massage in their suite, where royalty has stayed, and enjoy a traditional English Breakfast in the morning. Being awarded the prestigious AAA Four Diamond Award one time is a feat in itself, but 11-times in a row? Now, that is a serious accomplishment for this B&B to brag about.

A romantic Vermont experience doesn't get much lovelier than this. Located in northern Vermont, the Rabbit Hill Inn appeals to adult couples looking for a luxurious getaway, whether celebrating a life event or just looking for a fun vacation. With a full-service Irish pub on-site and a fireplace in most of their 19 rooms, this is a perfect place to rejuvenate at the beginning of the new year.

Branded as your "Home Away From Home," the Inn at Ellis River boasts 21 rooms to choose from, plus a rustic cottage in the classic New England village of Jackson, New Hampshire.

"Intimate. Upscale. Romantic." The Glenlaurel Inn & Cottages checks all three of those boxes-and in amazing fashion.
