We ended up staying at the 1740 house because it was one of the few places that would allow us to stay for only one night on the weekend. Most places around New Hope insist on a 2 night stay on the weekend which we could not do. The house is just a quick and very scenic drive north of... More

Thank you for the many compliments you gave us in your review. The construction is scheduled to be completed by late May 2012. The construction will add seating and a greater view of the river from the pub area. I forwarded your kind words to Trish (bar) and Tammy (breakfast). I look forward to seeing you and the girls again... More

We were very pleased with our stay. The innkeeper, his wife and staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very nice. We ate in the local taverns and really decompressed. Any guidance we needed was given. Yes, we would certainly go back. Great trip...very relaxing and private. More

We just stayed at the Inn over the weekend. It's lovely, warm, welcoming. Our room (#20) looks out to the Delaware River, as I think many, if not all, the rooms do. It's a great location, very quiet north of New Hope, PA and Lambertville, NJ and between Frenchtown and Stockton on the NJ side. Highly recommended and we would/will... More

Thank you for the postive review, Tammy and I (new innkeepers) as well as the veteran staff that we have strive to make the 1740 House a quiet getaway location. Every room indeed have a great view. For something different try a second floor room with a balcony on your next visit. Regards Richard Lobach Innkeeper. More

My husband and I have been going here for years and it is our favorite place to stay in the area and I think we stayed at almost every B&B in the New Hope area. I love the view and I feel the price is very reasonable for the area. I am disappointed to here about the pool though. I... More

I must preface this review by saying that we planned to stay 3 nights in late July but cancelled our reservations for the reason stated in this review. As visitors to the 1740 House virtually every summer since 1990 and at other times throughout the years, we had planned our trip back for this July. Fortunately, when making reservations, I... More

My husband and I just returned from a four night stay at the 1740 House and was very disappointed. When making our reservation I said we wanted room #2 right off the pool. At no time was I told the pool was closed. What a surprise when we pulled up and saw a grassy area where the pool once was.... More

Hello, My name is Richard Lobach. I am the new Innkeeper at the 1740 House as of January 2012. By your post and many others I see the pool will be missed by many of the loyal long time guests. I cannot speak on behalf of the pool's demise due to not being part of the decision when it was... More

We used this Inn as our main residence when my daughter got married. The service was great. Room beautiful. Breakfasts super. The best part for us was the availability of an outside patio accessible by all of our lower floor rooms. We gathered there each night to kick back and relax. I highly recommend this place. More

Thank you for the kind words, I am the new innkeeper and I will be sure to share the positive comments with the staff. It looks like you were here about a year ago. May I suggest it is time to plan ahead and make your reservations for May of this year. Hope to see you soon! Cheers, Richard More

While walking in the Lumberville area of PA during my brain tumor charity walk for Miles For Hope I stayed at the 1740 House Bed and Breakfast. I fell in love with the place the minute I saw it. This quaint bed and breakfast is located along side a quiet flowing river. The room was inviting and comfortable. The host... More
