We enjoyed the park like setting of the historic home, a small bit of nature in Lancaster. Nice sized refrigerator for longer stays. Loved the artistic touches and sense of eclectic architecture. The stories I'm sure these walls could tell... The wooden floors and nature of the older house does mean that voices and sounds will carry from room to room, but that is manageable. The upstairs shower is a bit tight but is still doable for someone 6 foot or so. Would recommend this property to any family.

The house was clean, beautifully decorated and well stocked. Lots of stairs, which didn't bother us, but good to note if you have people in your party who can't do stairs. Wonderful little cottage with lots of charm. Would happily return.

Thank you for shoveling the ice and snow off the steps! We still found some patches, but your provided salt made a big difference! We had a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed the herbal tea, the beautiful rooms, and the charming location. One room didn’t seem to warm up with the rest of the house, but that worked out okay because a person in our party likes to sleep in a cool room with provided extra blankets. Thank you!!!
