  • Inn Details

    Carriage Corner B&B is the perfect introduction to the original concept of Bed and Breakfast: affordable lodging, genuine hospitality, delicious breakfasts and immaculate housekeeping. With tasteful handcrafted touches of folk-art, the B&B offers a relaxing country atmosphere; situated in the hub of Lancaster County's beautiful farmland and tourist area. Gordon is willing to share his knowledge and love of the area and assists in planning itineraries. He is also at times able to arrange dinners with Amish friends. Resources on the area are provided in guest rooms as well as in the common room where one can curl up with a steeping cup of tea and read about the Amish lifestyle in front of a gas log stove. Wake up and let the wafting aroma of freshly brewed coffee lure you to our breakfast table. Inn specialties might include Oatmeal Pancakes, fruit bread cream cheese french toast, or a "Lancaster County Omelet", baked oatmeal and muffins.

    My husband and I stayed at Carriage Corner B&B for a weekend in December (2011) and had a wonderful weekend. The rooms and whole house were clean and very homey! We enjoyed ourselves and it was very close to everything- great for site-seeing. The owner is a wonderful man, very welcoming and caring. Breakfasts were AMAZING- he is a great cook! Highly suggest this B&B. CaWe can't wait to return!

    Really enjoyed my stay. The hosts are VERY gracious and welcoming, and the breakfasts were great. Lots of quaint places to shop and eat, yet not too far from more generic & modern shopping & restaurants.
