Flowers & Thyme Bed and Breakfast
|
Escape to our Lancaster, PA bed and breakfast located in the heart of Lancaster County, a
quiet and unspoiled location that is home to the PA Dutch, Amish and Mennonite families living
on acres of stunning beauty. As you visit, you can catch a glimpse of a lifestyle that focuses on
the simple way of living that hasn’t changed much over the years.
Lancaster County earns its title as the "Garden Spot of the USA" as a result of the productive
land farmed by the local farmers with their tractors or mules. In some areas of Lancaster
County you will see no electric lines being run to the farms. You’ll observe the slow pace of the
horse-drawn buggies. The Amish drive the grey buggies seen primarily in the Intercourse and
Strasburg area, while the Old Order Mennonite folk drive the black buggies in the New Holland
and Terre Hill areas of Lancaster County. Life is not as hurried in their communities.
Our Lancaster bed and breakfast is located in a prime area of rural Lancaster County. The city
of Lancaster is about 4 miles to the west of us while Strasburg is 4 miles to the east of us. We
are only 1 mile from Route 30, where the Tanger and Rockvale Square outlets provide great
shopping.
Enjoy the view of the fields and the working dairy farm across the street from the comfort of a
rocking chair on our wrap-around front porch. Relax in our gazebo for a spell and watch the
fireflies light up the summer evening, read a book on the porch swing, enjoy a walk through
our gardens, put together a puzzle, or take a nap in the hammock in the shade of our
evergreen grove.
