Peddler's Village
A historic and absolutely charming little village that's right out of a storybook. There's 60+ unique shops and boutiques, and several dining options (Buttonwood Grill, Earl's New American, Cock 'n Bull Restaurant, Hart's Tavern, Peddler's Pub). Nina's Waffles & Ice Cream is a MUST if you go. Trusttttt us. It's about a 15 min drive to Peddler's but so worth it.
Mercer Museum & Fonthill Castle
Built between 1908 and 1912 by Henry Chapman Mercer without blueprints, the 19,000 sq. ft. castle was modeled after a 13th-century Rhenish castle, with 44 rooms, 10 bathrooms, and 200+ windows. The building is distinctive for being one of the first ever constructed using reinforced poured-in-place concrete. Its eclectic mix of Medieval, Gothic, and Byzantine architectural styles gives it a unique “fairytale castle” vibe.
