Weekend Trip from Philly
I am looking for a romantic weekend trip within 2 hours' drive of Philadelphia for the end of June. Any suggestions?
|
New Hope Pa. Many bed and breakfasts, quaint town. A playhouse, many fine restuarants shops, antiques.
|
Across the bridge from New Hope, literally walking distance, is Lambertville, NJ.
Also quaint shops, antiquing, bed and bkfts and good restaurants. Enjoy! |
I live 5 minutes from New Hope so I thought you should know that you have to book very very soon for weekends in Bucks County. Also, New Hope is a bit noisy and crowded, you might consider staying at a B and B up the Delaware River a bit. Check out the New Hope Bed and Breakfast sites.

I was just to New Hope....any other suggestions? (Thanks for the input though).
|
Here are a couple suggestions - Inner Harbour (Baltimore) just over two hours, but a nice get-away. Cape May is also nice, but it may be hard to find rooms for late june. Also, New York,s Hudson River Valley is beautiful and romantic, probably 3+ hrs away.
There is a publication called the Discerning Traveler which has a lot of great Romantic places in the mid-atlantic states. I think the couple that publish it are from the Philly area. Good Luck |
how about the poconos? the Stroudsmoor is a lovely inn and they have great food an indoor pool, and a very nice country setting.
|
St. Michaels and the surrounding area in Maryland on the Eastern Shore is great. We stayed at the Black Walnut Point Inn a few years ago. It's just outside St. Michaels, @15 minutes or so. Fantastic place, super nice owners!Wades Point Inn looks like a very nice place too-never stayed there though.
|
Try the Inn at Montchanin Village, just outside of Wilmington, DE and close to the Brandywine Valley gardens and museums. Excellent restaurant.
|
What about Annapolis, MD? Beautiful little town with some good restaraunts and shopping as well as history.
|
I'm also looking for a romantic weekend trip from Philly for the end of June. We enjoy historic places and good food. I like the suggestions so far, are there any others?
|
These are all very good suggestions, but I haven't heard the Lancaster area suggested yet. Try the General Sutter Inn in Lititz for a romantic stay.
|
Stone Harbor is a beautiful little town right near Avalon at the Jersey shore.
