We enjoyed our time in the Lancaster area. The room was nice but on the small side. We felt the food was good- but not a hearty breakfast and there were no choices offered.Everyone received the same meal. The innkeepers were pleasant and very helpful with directions and reservations.Nothing special was done or the day mentioned and it was told we were celebrating our annniversary.

We recently joined another couple for four nights at this B&B in Lancaster Pa. The inn keepers, Janis and Ann were without doubt the most friendly, organized and helpful we have experienced. The meals were fantastic...from plum and goat cheese strata to mango crepes for breakfast. Would not have missed it for the world!!!!!!!!! The Baggetts

We stayed with Ann and Janice during our trip to explore the Amish country. The King's Cottage was a very beautiful, very friendly place to stay. The owners were full of helpful, knowledgeable advice and suggestions about the area, places to eat and see, directions and descriptions beyond compare and always at the ready. A hundred little touches in the Cottage, itself made it worth the trip, plus it was spotless, comfy, spacious, and made you immediately welcome. A very, very nice place to stay.
