Absolutely beautiful inn with gorgeous holiday decor. We loved the gourmet breakfast, comfortable room with heated bathroom floor, and the extras such as free cookies, chips, sodas and a latte maker in the kitchen area. The innkeepers were friendly, warm, and welcoming!

Fantastic Weekend

The couple who run the inn were lovely! They made a 5-star homemade breakfast every morning and kept the house very clean and comfortable. The house is located between Lancaster City and Lititz so the location was perfect. Would definitely stay here again!

Our room was very clean and the A/C kept the room very comfortable during the summer heat. The gardens behind the B&B were beautiful and we enjoyed sitting out there in the evening. The owners were fantastic. They were very friendly and did the little things to make the stay excellent. They even made our breakfast one morning an hour ahead of the scheduled time so we could get to our family plans that day. Would highly recommend this B&B.

My second visit—an 8-minute ride from Lancaster train station. The garden/pound behind the historic house is a tranquil retreat, and a township park nearby offers shady walking. I always head to R.B. Shap (5-min drive) for shoes; Lititz offers dining options. My hosts, Diane and Scott, are welcoming and affable. I will gladly return.

What a fabulous B&B! The hosts are delightful, respectful, and very sweet. The location was perfect for us, between Lancaster and Lititz, and away from the crazy touristy corridors. The house is immaculate! The atmosphere is elegant yet cozy, peaceful, well appointed! We wanted for nothing. Every need was anticipated and prepared for. Our room, Witmer, was quite comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated. The house is gorgeous and was decorated for the holidays so beautifully and tastefully! The breakfasts were so delicious that the hosts need to publish a cookbook. I have celiac and the hosts were undaunted, ensuring that I was both well fed and given gluten free yummies. This stay was truly a joy!

Elegant and comfortable, the Bowman House is surprisingly quiet despite its fronting on Lititz Pike (501). In the rear garden a waterfall offered a tranquil retreat. Scott and Diane served delicious breakfasts, and a guest kitchen is stocked with snacks and a Flavia coffee/cappucino/matcha tea machine. My favorite shoe store, R B Shap, is two miles away and downtown Lititz less than 4. I’ve stayed in four other inns/hotels in the area and this is by far the best. Diane and Scott made me feel very welcome; I’ll gladly return.

The garden around the property was well maintained and enhanced the patio and thus increased our enjoyment of the patio area. The main house is beautiful and kept spotlessly, bringing honor to the memory of the original owners of years gone by. Thank you!
