Description

The School House was built in 1922. It has 25 foot high ceilings in both the large sitting room and bedroom. There are 15-foot windows in both rooms overlooking beautiful grounds on one side and trees on the other. In winter, deer are at the bedroom window. It is located on the edge of a residential park but close to major roads for Pennsylvania, Ithaca, and New York City. An outstanding getaway, in an elegant setting, with the finest amenities you find in any Relais et Château. A worthy detour.

The Space
There are close to 3 acres of wooded grounds and gardens and a tennis court with night lights. The School House is over 650 square feet, fully air-conditioned with a recently refurbished bathroom. The original 1922 iron tub was deglazed and kitted out with new fittings and a power-head shower. This property can only be booked from this site.

Guest access
There are housekeeping and laundress that can be negotiated privately. An excellent dry cleaning service picks up and delivers Mondays and Thursdays. There are six steps leading to The School House from street parking. There is off-street parking on the grounds as well. Recommendations are available in advance for special requests, food preparation and specially cakes.
