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!

Scott and Diane are excellent host and hostess-friendly, accommodating, welcoming, outgoing and truly happy to have new visitors or welcome back old friends. Their big smile and amicable friendly conversation make us feel immediately at home every time we visit and their intimate knowledge of the Lancaster area always helps to point us in the right direction to see something new and different. The property is beautifully maintained and the 1860 house is in pristine condition. This along with the 3-course top notch excellent breakfast makes the B&B of choice in the Lancaster area. Scott-love the hat. Well done!

We enjoyed our 2 day stay. This B&B was even better than described on the web site. Diane and Scott were wonderful hosts and we look forward to returning the next time we are in Lancaster. P.S. The gourmet breakfast each morning was amazing, and they were considerate of my special dietary requests.

Exceptional Bed n' Breakfast
The hosts, Diane and Scott, went out of their way to make the stay perfect. They pay attention to fine details, such as snacks and a wonderful breakfast. The only thing that was a surprise is that the property is right on a busy street. We were in a room that faced the street but there was no noise because they had installed sound proof windows. I would definitely return.

This a beautiful and welcoming bed and breakfast. There are so many little touches that elevate your stay such as the beverage area, snacks and candies, robes for your convenience and comfortable seating areas. The breakfast was delicious and the host was kind and thoughtful. Our room was clean and well set up and the bathroom was updated and came with nice thick towels. The grounds were gorgeous. I definitely plan to come back!

If you like a B&B, STAY HERE!
A totally excellent experience. Hosts were gracious and welcoming. Room was well kept and well appointed. Strong shower and HEATED FLOOR IN THE BATHROOM! Breakfasts were a delight with a nice, diverse, flavorful offering. If we are ever in the area again, this is where we will stay.
