Photo of Hamanassett Bed and Breakfast

“A charming B&B occupying a quiet and scenic rural spot just outside Philadelphia. Traditionally dressed rooms feature intricately carved antique beds, rich fabrics, and wooden floors. Homemade breakfasts are a hearty affair and there's plenty to explore locally. Ideal for a rural weekend getaway.”
