If you are looking for a warm, friendly, inviting place to stay in Lancaster look no further!
It was our first trip to Pennsylvania. We stayed with my sister-in-law and a friend at The Lancaster Bed & Breakfast. After some extensive research online, we found this wonderful B&B through Yelp and some other reviews.
First, it was the first time several of the guests with us had stayed at a B&B and they were thoroughly impressed with the accommodations, location, the FOOD and of course the proprietors.
We were greeted by Keith and given a tour of the home's common areas, our guest rooms and the outside spaces for our use. The decor is fantastic matching the age of the house and the grounds are well manicured. The house becomes truly your home while you stay with Brad and Keith. You are welcomed into the living room to enjoy the well-appointed living spaces with coffee, teas, cookies and port in the evenings.
Some B&Bs are well, very nice, but with some restrictions and proprietors that are not as well versed in caring for guests in their establishments. This is certainly not the case at The Lancaster Bed & Breakfast! Both Keith and Brad are welcoming, inviting and want you to genuinely enjoy your experience in their home. As a guest you have the living room, the cozy library with computer, printer, fireplace for you to use during your stay. As well as access to the kitchen's refrigerator for anything that you may wish to keep cool during your stay.
The Hawthorne Suite is absolutely perfect with its shower, soaking tub and ample space to relax and enjoy. Our other guests were in the Clove room that was an absolute treat to see! For a "smaller room" it was perfectly appointed and spacious enough for two. The beautiful cast iron soaking tub was perfect for my sister-in-law to read in and relax.
So onto breakfast! I cannot possibly express the care, love and absolutely deliciousness of the food that is served! The serving sizes are, well, very well portioned (if not massive, depending on your appetite!). I could not possibly eat it all. They start with a wonderful starter while your main breakfast meal is being prepared. There are coffees, teas, juices, and water awaiting you in the well-appointed, beautiful dining room.
After such a fantastic breakfast Keith & Brad are very willing and well versed in the local attractions that might interest you on your trip. We were interested in doing several different sites, but after consulting with them we changed our itinerary. Trust me, we were very pleased that we changed our plans! We had a more genuine experience in this beautiful area after their recommendations.
So, overall I will say this is my first Yelp review. I have stayed in every conceivable type of accommodation from every price range, literally across parts of the globe, and I can say that I have never stayed somewhere that was so personal and beautiful. Rarely have I felt so at ease as I have at the Lancaster. It was a great experience for us all and we cannot wait to stay again with both returning guests and new ones!
To Keith & Brad - we say thank you! We cannot wait to stay again. Give Gowan our best.
We had the most wonderful three days with you all. read more
