Maybe a single 2-3 hour each way trip and a couple of shorter 1 - 1.5
hour trips.
Don't want to go back to Engalnd exhausted.
It helps if we can find a base where the accomodation is relaxing so
we could alternate long trips / day rest


Depending on what you like to do, Hartford has historic homes
including Mark Twain's and also the Wadsworth Atheneum art museum.
Newport, RI would be close with its mansions and Cape Cod could be
done also. I wouldn't go to Cape cod on a Friday or sunday because of
the traffic.
New Haven has Yale and a number of museums.
Gillette's Castle is interesting.
