Our Favorite “Coolcations” \> The English Countryside’s Best Kept Secret Long overshadowed by English countryside counterparts like the Cotswolds and Hampshire, Somerset is having a moment. With Michelin-starred dining, a growing creative scene and the debut of Yarlington Lodge—a private house at Indagare favorite hotel The Newt (opening June 1)—it’s one of England’s most exciting escapes. Fresh off a recent trip, Indagare’s Claire Gelalich shares her insider guide on what not to miss. Discover Somerset Our Monaco Cheat Sheet Monaco may be tiny—it’s under one square mile—but this principality on the Riviera is a global capital for pomp and pampering. Within its postage-stamp borders, visitors can find: nine Michelin-starred restaurants (and 14 stars total); more than 100 registered Ferraris (2.86 per 1,000 residents, to be precise) and some 12,000-plus millionaires—comprising about a third of the population. And since it’s so small, it’s easy for visitors to experience a taste of Monegasque life. Ahead of the upcoming Grand Prix, here is our Monaco cheat sheet. Explore Monaco The Latest From New England Nantucket Slate Aviation is continuing its seasonal shuttle service from Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale and New York to Nantucket. Plus, the annual Nantucket by Design event, highlighting local artists and designers, will be celebrating its 10th anniversary on July 13 to 16.  See our guide \> Martha’s Vineyard Two buzzy restaurants will be open for their first full summer: Indigo, the island’s only Indian spot, and the Ocean Club, by a seven-time James Beard nominee. Plus, America’s beloved (and oldest) carousel, Flying Horses, celebrates 150 years on July 25.  See our guide \> Newport A major sailing event, America’s Jubilee, will mark America’s 250th anniversary, alongside a milestone year for the Newport Flower Show, with a nod to the city’s Gilded Age history.
