Apple Bin Inn

Welcome to Lancaster County, PA, and the Apple Bin Inn Bed & Breakfast. Here in Pennsylvania Dutch Country, our Amish neighbors provide us with a daily reminder to slow down and focus on the simpler things in life. At the Apple Bin Inn, our charming rooms, delicious country breakfasts, and renowned hospitality all combine to create the ideal bed & breakfast getaway for romantic couples, families with children, and business travelers alike.

As you turn into our driveway, you'll be welcomed by an acre of park-like tranquility. You'll enter our main house as friends do, through the back door, into our arched brick hearth kitchen. Our country dining room, with its original 1865 wide-plank flooring, will stir thoughts of the scrumptious breakfast that awaits you. Our comfortable living room features an extensive library to suit all reading tastes, along with comfy sofas, chairs, and rockers for reading, knitting, games, or just talking with new-found friends.

Once settled into one of our delightful guest rooms (including suites and a private cottage retreat), you'll be able to unwind from your journey and enjoy your peaceful surroundings. You can also stay connected to the "outside world" with our free wireless Internet access.

We'd be delighted to be your hosts, and become your friends, as you experience the beauty, charm, serenity, and spirit of Pennsylvania Dutch Country.  See you soon!

Breakfast at the Apple Bin Inn is a time of pure enjoyment for our guests. We use local produce and meats from area shops and farmers markets to create scrumptious country breakfasts. Fresh herbs from our garden and greenhouse are also used to enhance our delectable dishes. And because we believe that a perfect breakfast should touch all of the senses... china, silver, fine linens, and candlelight all enhance what we know will be a memorable breakfast.

Along with fresh brewed coffee & tea, and chilled orange juice, you'll savor a different Apple Bin Inn fruit dish and mouth-watering hot entree each morning, It warms our hearts when guests ask for our recipes, and we're happy to share recipes for most of our dishes! We can accommodate most special dietary requirements (such as diabetic, vegetarian, vegan, low carb, low fat), as long as we know your needs ahead of time, so please inform us when you make your reservation.
