Pomfret offers beautiful vistas, winding country roads, stone walls, and an eclectic collection of shops and restaurants. Town government has been sensitive to maintaining the rural environment and historic charm that makes Pomfret the quintessential New England Community.

We are a community of approximately 4,200 located in Windham County, 60 miles from Hartford, 70 miles from Boston, 30 miles from Worcester, MA, and 40 miles from Providence, RI, with easy access to I-395 and Route 101. We are nearby to many attractions such as the casinos, theater, UCONN, Mystic Seaport & Aquarium, just to name a few. Scenic Route 169 is particularly picturesque as it winds its way through town from Brooklyn to Woodstock. We have many lovely homes that date back to the 17th and 18th centuries.

Pomfret is an ideal place for outdoor recreation with several State Parks, including Mashamoquet, Wolf Den and the Air Line Trail with extensive walking, hiking, mountain bike and horse trails. The Connecticut Audubon Center at Pomfret offers spectacular birding and is known for its extensive grassland habitats.
