Hanover Pennsylvania Bed and
Breakfast Inn ... a tradition of hospitality just a few
minutes from historic Gettysburg. 
The Beechmont Inn, inspected by and a member of Select
Registry and rated Three Stars by Mobil, has been a part of
historic Hanover since Andrew Jackson was president of the
United States. It witnessed the Civil War's first major battle
on free soil, days before the famous Battle of Gettysburg.
Today, this original home serves as a bed and breakfast inn to
travelers who delight in the comforts of a home away from
home.
Guests at The Beechmont can relax in the quiet comfort of
the parlor or refresh themselves with a book from the library,
which also boasts a computer with Internet access. High-speed
wireless Internet access is available as well. Much attention
is given to small details, including a collection of Civil War
and local memorabilia.
Discover the antiquity of each unique lodging accommodation
in The Beechmont one by one. Settle into a wingback chair and
watch the flames dance in the marble fireplace of the Magnolia
Suite. Swing open the doors of the Garden Gate
Suite and step into a whimsical courtyard reflecting
the changes of the seasons. Climb the winding open staircase
and lose yourself in traditional woodwork and extravagant
paper patterns. Snuggle into the warmth of one of the five
upstairs rooms, decorated in the grace of years past.
Breakfast is a special time at The Beechmont. Begin the
morning with a fruit course such as garnished fresh melon or
Beechmont Baked Apples, and continue with an entree that might
include Spice Pancakes with Lemon Sauce, Beechmont Buttermilk
Pie, or an Herb Cheese Tart. Accompaniments of homemade bread
and muffins, special teas and coffee blends from the great
northwest, warm hospitality, and plenty of great conversation
complete your breakfast at The Beechmont.
Tea and sweets are served in the evening. Outdoors, a
vine-covered trellis and patio, wicker-furnished porch, and a
flagstone patio under a 130-year-old magnolia tree offer
special places to pause and enjoy reading or conversing. Herb
and flower gardens abound, and you will even find an
old-fashioned glider swing for two on the landscaped lawn. |
Enjoy many nearby activities during your stay. Visit the
Gettysburg National Military Park, Eisenhower National
Historic Site, and some 20 museums and venues rich in history
and heritage. Then, go antiquing in the villages of New Oxford
and Abbotstown, with 500 dealers in attendance.
Drive through scenic Pennsylvania Dutch Country, searching
for that perfect quilt. Enjoy the outdoors while boating,
fishing, or cross-country skiing at Codorus State Park with
its 26 miles of lakefront land.
After all that activity, settle down for tea at one of
several fine tearooms. Dine at a 200-year-old tavern or at one
of the area's special restaurants offering regional and
international cuisine.
Business travelers will love the special attention to their
needs and if you are planning a wedding or special event, you
will be delighted at the attention to detail and beautiful
setting of The Beechmont.
Kathryn and Thomas White hope that your stay at The
Beechmont will be a treasured memory, touched be centuries of
charm. |
