"In the heart of New Hope, the 12-room Ghost Light Inn is walkable to all of the interesting town's shops and restaurants. The beds are king-size and the walk-in showers spacious. Many of the guest rooms have Juliet balconies overlooking the Delaware River and the charming hamlet of Lambertville, New Jersey, just across the bridge. You can also enjoy the view from one of the Adirondack chairs on the patio by the river."
"One of the county's most noted architectural features is its historic stone buildings, and the Inn at Fox Briar Farm, near Doylestown, is a beautiful example. The 18th-century farmhouse was transformed into an intimate bed-and-breakfast four years ago, and the eight guest rooms are named for past residents. With grounds that feature three ponds and an apple orchard, it's a prime spot when reading outside and going for long walks are on the agenda."
"The area's climate and terrain make for spectacular autumn colors, best appreciated in a local park. A hammer might be an odd addition to your packing list, but you'll want to bring one for a visit to Ringing Rocks Park. The 123-acre park is filled with boulders of various sizes that ring like bells when struck. There are hiking trails and picnic tables near the boulder field."
Eastern Pennsylvania's Bucks County, about 170 miles from Washington, D.C., features charming towns such as New Hope and Doylestown and a scenic waterfront along the Delaware River. Lodging options include small inns like the 12-room Ghost Light Inn in New Hope with river-view Juliet balconies, and the Inn at Fox Briar Farm, an 18th-century farmhouse near Doylestown with ponds and an apple orchard. Outdoor attractions include Delaware Canal State Park's nearly 60-mile towpath for cycling, Ringing Rocks Park's boulder field that rings when struck, and Washington Crossing Historic Park with trails, Colonial buildings, and a small museum.
