We’ve traveled down to Long Island (near New York City) for the weekend, staying in Glen Cove Mansion – it’s an impressive building, styled like old English manors, but built only 100 years ago and now converted to a conference center with attached hotel (so you don’t stay in the mansion, but you can tour it!)
M&I / GBMINI 
lets not forget it was the scene in North by Northwest all those years ago
