"Among
the most charming lodgings is Woolverton Inn, a 1792 stone manor enveloped by 300
acres of rolling hills and grazing sheep.
If the terry cloth robe, Egyptian cotton
linens, featherbeds and whirlpool tubs don't
provide enough coddling, then feast on the
luxury of breakfast in bed (great for those
who cringe at the forced camaraderie of
B&B meals). Just five minutes from the posh
shops of Lambertville and the nouveau-hippie
stores in New Hope."

Our Top 10 Favorite Things
to Do...
1.
A stroll at dusk from the Inn's front porch
down to the banks of the Delaware River, crossing
the bridge to Pennsylvania (the sunsets over
the river are fantastic!)
2. Dining by firelight
at the historic Sergeantsville Inn - intimate,
romantic and just a three mile drive down a
country road from the inn.
3. An excursion to
The Golden Nugget Antique Flea Market on a crisp
Wednesday morning.
4. Visiting the "smiling
sheep" under the towering hemlocks along Cuttalossa
Road, one of the most picturesque spots in Buck's
County.
5. A Buck's County
back road drive to Doylestown, concluding with
a visit to Henry Mercer's "castle", Fonthill,
and neighboring Moravian Pottery and Tile Works.
6.
A slow tube ride down the lazy and forested
Delaware River.
7. Biking down shady
Lower Creek Road behind the Inn through The
Green Sergeant Covered Bridge, the last surviving
covered bridge in NJ. And then continuing to
the village of Rosemont with lunch at the Café,
formally a country general store.
8. An afternoon of
strolling and antiquing in Lambertville, followed
by an early evening cocktail at the intimate
Boathouse Tavern.
9. A shopping excursion
to Frenchtown, NJ, followed by a leisurely drive
back to the Woolverton on beautiful River Road
in Pennsylvania.
10. A barrel tasting
tour at a local winery and then a nap on a featherbed!

"Living
in Manhattan can fill your senses! Last
night we were serenaded by a small bird,
who sang with the grace of a recitalist
(At one point we had to applaud!). The honking
of the geese flying overhead and the baaing
of the sheep - all these sounds accompanied
our overnight stay. (In the Catskills where
we usually go during the week, we are not
treated to these beauties). You have created
a wonderful place. Thank you!"
