Look forward to resting, relaxing, and having fun at our West Chester, PA bed and breakfast. When you choose the Inn at Whitewing Farm as your destination, you can fill your itinerary with on-site activities like our top 10 favorites.
1. Take a Dip in the Pool
There’s nothing like a refreshing dip in our custom built Spring-fed pool and spa! Rumor has it that our spring, dating back to the late 1700’s was a meeting area for people to gather to collect our special water. The level of sulfur was said to have been good for soaking and an early level of hydrotherapy. But, back to our pool… with little to no shade, the sunbathers flock to the pool deck to catch some rays and enjoy the tranquil environment. A table with an umbrella & chairs look over the pond and a sweet sitting area provides a relaxing place to gather and relax for those who prefer to stay covered.
2. Try Catch & Release Fishing
There is something genuine and simple about grabbing your rod and heading out to the pond to catch some fish. Henry David Thoreau once said: “Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing it’s not about the fish they are after.” Shut off your phone, enjoy the outdoors and escape reality for a few hours!
3. Play Tennis
Our Har-Tru tennis court is great for your body and even better for your game. The natural green stone found in Virginia provides a more flexible, shock-absorbing surface, which eases the stress on your feet, back and legs during play! Our court is available for day or night play. Just let us know and we will turn the lights on for you.
4. Get Cozy at the Fire Pit
A cool night, cozy seats, and a fire pit, what more could you ask for? Snuggle up and stare off into the summer night filled with twinkling stars or ask us about our s’mores package!
5. Get Lost in a Good Book
Down by our pond patio sit two darling tables that face the fountain & are the perfect place to enjoy a good book. Let the sun shine between the mature trees and listen to the sounds of the water as you soak up a story and get lost in something magical.
