The Bookhouse at Faunbrook — Hotel in West Goshen Township

I booked a weekend stay, checking in Friday and checking out on Sunday after seeing an Instagram story about the hotel. It was a short getaway for my wife and she loved it. As a bibliophile, it was really cool to stay in a historic bookshop. The library in each room, as well as the lobby made it very bookish. The room was lovely, well laid out, well appointed, and quite spacious. The location is ideal for exploring the town of Kennett Square and walking to delicious dining destinations in the town.
