Pretty garden w/fish pond......a little surprising that the house sits right on the main road, and has a residential street behind......lots of engine noise from trucks and motorcycles out front. GREAT air conditioner took care of the noise!... read more

We stayed a night during our touring of the Lancaster area. Great hosts, made us feel at home. Breakfast was superb - home made scones, pancakes, fresh OJ and great coffee (important to former Seattleites).

My family and I stayed here over the New Year and adored the place. By far the most delicious breakfasts I've ever had in a B & B. I'd love to have half of Alice's skills in the kitchen. Highly recommend!
