At the edge of Pennsylvania Dutch County outside of
Allentown you will find Glasbern, a 21st-century country inn
that has evolved from a 19th-century family farm to a premiere
lodging retreat. Flowers and vegetables flourish and Scottish
highland cattle graze amid a 100-acre valley of sloping paths,
streams, and ponds.
Enjoy comfortable bed and breakfast lodging plus an on-site
restaurant in this complex of eight rustically restored guest
and conference buildings. Coupled with modern amenities, the
guest rooms and suites are embellished with elegant country
charm, perfect for a vacation hideaway or romantic getaway.
Whirlpool and fireplace amenities enhance most guest rooms in
Glasbern's quaint community of buildings. Private baths,
phones, high speed Internet access, voice mail, and television
with DVD players, plus selections from the Inn's movie library
are standard amenities. Some luxury suites are bi-level and
may include wet bars, Jacuzzi shower systems, steam showers,
CD music systems, and luxurious robes.
Glasbern serves Contemporary American Cuisine featuring
seasonal menu changes. In-season local garden produce plus
desserts and pastries designed on-property are Glasbern
hallmarks. Being seated at a candlelit table set with pewter
chargers adds a subtle touch of style, not only inherent in
the dining room's architecture but also in the Inn's
determination to make the evening of dining an exceptional
experience -- one to be remembered.
For the physically ambitious guest, an outdoor pool, walking
trails, bicycles and an indoor fitness center are available on
the property. After a workout, you can enjoy a massage at the
Inn's on-site spa. The spa services at Glasbern are
comprehensive and therapeutic.
A full country breakfast (complimentary with stay) and fine
dining cuisine are served in the Barn's Restaurant, which
feature majestic slate and shale walls reaching 26 feet to the
timbered cathedral ceiling. The starter's buffet is located
under the great chandelier and features homemade pastries,
muffins, breads, fresh fruit, and cereal. At the individual
tables, there is a menu that offers an array of items
including French toast, waffles, and a "create-you-own"
omelet section.
Before retiring for the night, you can enjoy a beverage
(served until 11:00 p.m.) or take part in the Lehigh Valley
nightlife. All this and more come together to make Glasbern, a
Lehigh Valley Inn and Dining destination where guests leave
with lasting memories. |
