Porches makes you feel right at home. The gardens and landscaping are interesting and comforting and the actual porches give you a feeling of gentile and relaxed living. Sorry it was such a short stay. Great location. We must Stay longer next time.

My husband & I recently spent our 35th anniversary at this spectacular B & B. If you love flowers and nature at it's finest, there is no place to rival this gem. Cozy, charming and welcoming, this B & B is 5 star all the way. It's hidden location keeps it private, yet it is steps away from the heart... More

My partner and I recent had our first experince at Porches . I say first because we will return. John was a wonderful host, excellant cook and had a beautiful home. We stayed in the top floor room that was just perfect for us. I can not say enough positive things about John and his home. Walking distance to everything,... More

Beautiful Location, Your Home Away from Home - I recently took my aunt to Porches for Mother's Day. Porches is tucked away down Fisher's Alley, right on the towpath. It is right off Main Street. It is so peaceful and relaxing. Every room is beautifully decorated and has a porch. My aunt, who has stayed at many places, remarked how... More

We have stayed at the porches many times throughout the years, and it's been consistently delightful. John the owner/ innkeeper goes out of his way to ensure that his guests have a complete getaway experience even outside of the porches. John has a rich history with New Hope and has some funny stories. He takes the time to offer customized... More

I've just returned from a getaway with old friends. We stayed at Porches and we all agree -- we can't wait to visit again. Porches has a great location in New Hope - you can walk the towpath, shop or dine. Everything is within easy walking distance. Yet, there is a private feeling to Porches. Off Fisher's Alley, one is... More

My husband and I stayed at Porches May 4 & 5th, 2012. We had an incredible weekend getaway! John, the inn keeper, was always available if you had questions, or needed directions. He definitely loves what he does, and it shows. Carol, the inn's General Manager was absolutely wonderful - she made our dinner reservations each night, and was able... More

We stayed at this wonderful B&B Apr 13-15. We absolutely loved our stay. We were in room 2, a very cute room with a private bath. My only complaint is how hard the bed was...I have no idea what kind of mattress it was, but truthfully, sleeping on a carpeted floor would have been more comfortable. Both my husband and... More

My boyfriend and I went to New Hope for the day- we love it and have gone before but never stayed the night. We decided to book one night at Porches because of the rating we saw here. Upon leaving today, we told them that they were on the top 5 but we had to write them an amazing review... More

My husband and I stayed here overnight for a weekend get away. This was our second trip to a bed and breakfast. We stayed in room 12 which was fantastic. It was very clean and comfortable. The decor makes the room. We had a very clean claw foot soaking tub. I was impressed because everything was white which is hard... More
