We had a great time here. The hostess, Pattye was friendly and helpful in pointing us toward a place for dinner. Our room was spacious, comfy, and clean with plenty of towels. It was a treat to be able to spend the night in a house with that much history! Breakfast was divine - a colonial recipe, no less -... More

While I found Pattye to be most engaging, the home itself is downright dirty. I understand that keeping a 17th century home is more difficult than a modern dwelling, however, cleaning even once a year would tremendously benefit this place. I actually stayed here a few times because it was convenient and quiet. On one occasion the shower was not... More

As others have mentioned. This is a creepy unclean house with a very strange hostess. The breakfast food was terrible. We left and went out to a diner. We had paid for two days so we had two nights of poor sleep on a tired bed and dusty and unclean conditions. The movie "Misery" comes to mind. Avoid.

We were in the area for a family funeral, and try to stay in a B&B whenever possible. The location was very convenient to where we had to be, and I was happy to get a room, and an upgrade to a private bath. The home is lovely, historic (breakfast is served in the 1690's original kitchen!), well cared for... More

How often can you stay in an almost medieval house in the US? This inn, built in 1690, is wonderful. Not tarted-up, not sterilized, but homey and comfortable. Breakfast was good, and the owner was friendly and informative (she was extra nice to my partner's son). We really had a great time, and it's an awesome period place to stay... More

Compared to other bed and breakfasts I have stayed at in the US and abroad, this one was undeniably the worst in my experience. If you are considering staying here even after reading all of the reviews, I would suggest checking it out before committing yourself to reserving a room. Look behind the radiator and curtains at the decades of... More

The primary difficulty with this B&B is that it is dank, dark and smells like 300 year old mold. I spent a whole hour here and was impressed by the filthy, stinky, dusty, smelly conditions. In short, it is cluttered and unclean. I did not even want to think about getting in the bed or using the bath. The hostess... More

I'll make this short since some of the other reviewers covered the problems. In no particular order: - The house was extremely cluttered and dusty -None of the common rooms were setup to be inviting -Our bathroom looked like it had not been really cleaned in many months -The towels had a very funky odor - like mothballs -The room...

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Great Valley House for the second time on March 29, 2008. We booked the same room we'd stayed in before, the Rose and Grey Room, because we loved it so much the first time we stayed there about two years ago. We couldn't wait to get back to the house, which is beautiful... More
