Decided to visit Lancaster for a day, found Bird in Hand Inn and decided to stay the night, awesome experience will stay again everything was first class. From the playground near the cafe where we feed the animals to the hot tub it was a great experience. Will definitely stay again.

this inn is centrally located to the items of interest we wanted to visit; the pools and hot tub added to our "free time", the restaurant offers an excellent variety of food for all tastes … visiting will be a nice diversion from the hectic pace of the daily routine
