From your Peabody hotel room, it’s easy to explore historic sites in Boston and Salem, visit quaint New England fishing villages, or simply enjoy the miles of beautiful Massachusetts coastline.
Visit nearby Salem, of the infamous Salem Witch Trials, and see the many museums dedicated to the 17th-century events there. And while you’re there, don’t miss the New England Pirate Museum or Nathaniel Hawthorne’s House of the Seven Gables. Or spend a day seeing the sites in Boston: the USS Constitution, Bunker Hill Battlefield, and the home of Paul Revere are all just a short trip from your Peabody accommodation options.
Boat-lovers can’t miss the port tour at Marblehead, known as “The Yachting Capital of the World.” Be sure to stop in at Gloucester, America’s oldest seaport, and see the Fishermen’s Wives Memorial, dedicated to the memory of the families of fishermen lost at sea.
When you arrive back in Peabody, make sure to visit the George Peabody House and Peabody Leather Museum, with artifacts on display relating to the famous local leather industry and the life of founder George Peabody. A stop to Brooksby Farm in Peabody is also a must for a taste of their fresh, homemade apple pies. Burn off the calories with a ride down the serene Independence Greenway Bike Route. Whatever you do along Massachusetts’ scenic North Shore, our many convenient accommodation options in Peabody offer a perfect place to stay.
