    In the heart of Bucks County,is a special place Oscar Hammerstein II called home... Highland Farm. Sitting on The Farm's large, wraparound porch overlooking Bucks County farmland, Oscar Hammerstein II was inspired to write such unforgettable tunes as "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'" and "My Favorite Things". Relax on the wrap-around porch where Oscar Hammerstein II wrote lyrics for the great American musical, Oklahoma. Stroll through the library where Mr. Hammerstein worked at his standing desk or play chess in the grand living room where he entertained artists such as James Michener, Richard Rogers, George Kaufman, Moss Hart, and Stephen Sondheim.

    Very cordial host. We were most comfortable. The inn has done an excellent job in surrounding you in the history of Oscar Hammerstein, and preserving his Bucks County home. One comment - maybe good, maybe not good - no TV's in the guest rooms.

    This is a lovely B&B with a gracious hostess. Wanting 2 beds, we stayed in a third floor room. It's an old house so the stairs and the floors creak. We were not disturbed but were concerned about disturbing others. This is not a major problem but one to be aware of.

    My husband and I were looking for a place to stay locally, I am pregnant and did not want to travel far. Highland Farm Bed and Breakfast was the perfect place..we felt right at home. We loved reading by the fire at night. The room was beautiful and very clean, the bathroom was immaculate and very up to date. Breakfast was delicious...we will definitely return for an overnight stay!!!

    Oh what a beautiful visit. The Innkeeper, Christine Cole, was extremely warm, friendly, and quite knowledgeable about the history of the building and Oscar Hammerstein II. The wine and cheese, the breakfast, and other guests were each memorable. The Inn's website included suggestions of places of interest in the Doylestown area and was quite helpful; we really relished James Michner's museum, desk, and memobelia. Oh what a beautiful few days.


    You don't need to be an Oscar Hammerstein fan to enjoy!

    We had a delightful stay at this Bed & Breakfast. Owner Christine Cole was a pleasure to meet, and her knowledge of the history of the farm and local area was very helpful. Oscar Hammerstein owned this house for 20 years, and wrote many of his most famous pieces while here - but you don't need to be music fan to enjoy the beautiful home, countryside, and the town of Doylestown!
