    Review Swiss Woods B&B, Lititz, PA

    Photo Album

    The Anker Stube (the Common Room) is dominated by a massive sandstone fireplace and is the heartbeat of the inn's activity. Curl up in front of a crackling fire in the winter, with a good book and a steaming cup of tea. Enjoy lemondade or tea with our fresh biscotti, while you read about the lifestyle of the many Amish and Mennonite families that live throughout Lancaster County, or peruse one of the many books about Switzerland. The atmosphere here is reminiscent of Switzerland with the open beams, natural woodwork, and handcrafted furniture. Strains of Swiss folk music softly complement the ambience.
    Wake up and let the smell of our own blend of freshly brewed coffee entice you to our breakfast table. Inn specialties might include cinnamon raisin French toast stuffed with strawberry cream cheese, eggs Florentine, pastries, quiche, and fruit compotes from the garden. Our menus are only limited by Debbie's imagination. She has collected and created recipes with a Pennsylvania Dutch flair, as well as incorporating Swiss, German, and Austrian touches. Birchermuesli, a Swiss fruit and yogurt dish, is an inn specialty full of strawberries and red raspberries fresh from the garden. In Autumn, when the leaves are bursting with color, apples from our orchard are steamed with lemon and brandy - the perfect accompaniment to our pumpkin pancakes. Whatever the season, good conversation and exceptional food - there is no better way to start your day!A fabulous, filling country breakfast is served every morning. It might be Eggs Florentine, Stuffed Frenchtoast, seasonal pancakes (pumpkin, apple, blueberry, etc.), or another suprise--but will be accompanied by fresh fruit and breakfast meats, pastries, and fresh coffee and juice.
    A wonderful getaway in the woods, yet conveniently close to roads to nearby attractions. Beautifully landscaped gardens change the scenic views throughout the seasons.Swiss Woods is truly nestled in some of Lancaster County's most beautiful woodland. Our gardens are second to none and worth the trip alone.
    A peaceful walk through the gardens is the perfect start or finish to your day.poppies at the garden
