Located in the heart of historic Gettysburg, the Brickhouse Inn Bed and Breakfast (8 rooms) and the adjacent historic Welty House (4 rooms) are perfect bases for walks to shops and restaurants. You are only a few minutes from Lincoln Square in the town center, and the National Battlefield Park is virtually at your doorstep. The historic Welty House was built in c.1830 by Solomon Welty, and was in the thick of fighting during the Battle of Gettysburg - its walls still bear the scars of bullets. Although the house has been enlarged, it can be recognized (nearest on the right) in the photo on the right, showing the procession ...
My husband was thrilled that I was happy with our accomodations, as I am not always happy with our accomodations and tend to become very verbal about that fact very quickly. After thoroughly checking websites I picked the Brickhouse and was not disappointed. Our hosts were charming and our room was perfect. The Kentucky Suite met all my expectations with the large bathroom with the clawfoot tub and with the attached porch with rockers overlooking a garden. These two aspects of the suite make it extra special for the price. Everything looked just like the pictures on the website, which is not always the reality. Kudos to the Brickhouse, because of you we had a wonderful anniversary weekend.
