4 Best Day Trips from Philadelphia | Condé Nast Traveler

"Set on 44 acres adjacent to Longwood Gardens, pulling up to the Inn at Whitewing Farm almost makes you feel like you're fleeing to your own country estate. Originally the home of Russell Pippen DuPont’s treasurer, Whitewing Farm’s grounds were planned by horticulturalists from Longwood Gardens, and share many of the same rare trees and perennials. But it’s not just a gardener’s paradise; it’s also a bed and breakfast with resort amenities. Besides guest rooms decorated in a classic English country style (think stripes, plaids, florals, and horses), the B&B also offers a hot, chef-prepared breakfast each morning, and puts on afternoon tea each day. There's also a fully stocked pond for catch-and-release fishing, as well as a Har-Tru clay tennis court and an outdoor swimming pool." - Nancy DePalma
