Historic Fairfield Inn 1757 Description:
The Fairfield Inn was built in 1757, and is one of America's oldest, continuously operated Inns. It is the oldest Inn in the Gettysburg area! VOTED BEST B&B and BEST RESTAURANT IN 2008, the Inn offers all the refinement and charm one would expect from a small luxury hotel. Individually decorated bedrooms, spacious private bathrooms, and elegant, tastefully furnished suites and parlours invite you to relax. Guests can actually sleep in the guest room once occupied by Confederate General JEB Stuart.
Built nineteen years before the Declaration of Independence, The Fairfield Inn was originally the Mansion House of Squire Miller, an original founder of the town. In the 260 plus years that have passed, the Mansion House has hosted many famous Americans such as Statesman Patrick Henry famous for the quote: "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death", Thaddeus Stevens, Generals Robert E. Lee & J.E.B. Stuart, Baseball Hall of Famer Eddie Plank, President & Mrs. Eisenhower as well as other distinguished guests.
The Inn is located only 8 miles West of Gettysburg directly on the Confederate Retreat. When the Battle of Gettysburg was over, the Confederate Army retreated West through Fairfield. General Robert E. Lee and his officers stopped to eat at the Inn. After touring the Battlefield, we invite you to retreat to our style of history and hospitality. Unwind in one of our luxurious suites or guest rooms. Sip hot spiced cider by one of our eight wood burning fireplaces or have a drink in Squire Miller’s Tavern.
