Make your getaway picture perfect . . . spend the night in an art gallery! We invite you to be a guest in our antique-filled 1853 Federal Inn in Terre Hill, a small town nestled among Amish and Mennonite farms. Browse through the colored pencil pictures in the gallery/sitting room, featuring the work of Innkeeper Bruce Garrabrandt. The sketch that appears here is an example of Bruce's work, which includes both traditional and whimsical themes.

You'll feel like you've escaped to a simpler, gentler time as horse-drawn buggies pass by the inn and chimes play from the 19th century church across the street. Tennis, golf, and cross-country skiing are all nearby or you can enjoy spectator sports like antiquing and outlet shopping. At the end of your day, you'll find your bed turned down with home-made chocolates on your pillow. All of our food is made from scratch and feature eggs and produce from nearby farms, flour and grains from a local mill and even the chocolate is from a nearby chocolate factory. All of our three guest rooms have private baths. Two feature Jacuzzi's, all three have fireplaces. Guests may also enjoy our "puzzle room" which has fireplace and a jigsaw puzzle in progress and comfortable seating for reading or stitching. Three porches surround our home where guests may enjoy refreshments.

Breakfasts are a memorable event - either in the dining room by candlelight or on the Victorian porches. All breakfasts consist of fresh baked goods (scones, breads, turnovers, muffins or popovers), an appetizer, delicious entree and dessert. Meals may include such house specialties as blueberry scones, oatmeal souffle, strawberry crepes, baked turkey and apple sausage, sweet potato streusel, and hazelnut raspberry brownies. Everything, from scones in the morning to chocolates at turndown, is made from scratch! We feature locally grown, fresh produce from Lancaster County and will gladly adapt our menu to any special dietary requests, including gluten-free breakfasts for celiac guests. Terre Hill has some of the best views in Lancaster County. The terrain is hilly and many bike touring companies go right past the front of our inn, which also is true for horse-drawn buggies of the local Amish and Mennonite farmers. Adamstown (called the "Antiques Capitol of the USA"), is just four miles away and has thousands of dealers and their wares every weekend. There are local farm markets, covered bridges, one-room schoolhouses, produce stands and small craft and antique stores. Our town has a Memorial Day Service, Halloween parade, annual antique car show weekend, town-wide yard sale weekend, and Terre Hill Days. Surrounding towns also have harvest festivals in the fall. The city of Lancaster is a short drive away and offers many museums and historic walking tours. This area is also known for micro-breweries and we can steer guests to some of the best. Learn about the unique lifestyle of the Amish and Old Order Mennonites. Of course, there is always outlet shopping in Reading or Lancaster.
