Her tradition of grace and hospitality continues at The Beechmont today. Your hosts, Kathryn and Thomas White, believe she would be delighted to know that, a century later, Beechmont guests are still as important to them as Mrs. Schmuck's were to her. The Beechmont has been a part of historic Hanover since Andrew Jackson was president of the United States. It witnessed the Civil War's first major battle on free soil, days before the famous Battle of Gettysburg. Guests at The Beechmont can relax in the quiet comfort of the parlor or refresh themselves with a book from the library.
Much attention is given to small details, including a collection of Civil War and local memorabilia.
Tea and sweets are served in the evening. Herb and flower gardens abound, and you will even find an old-fashioned glider swing for two on the landscaped lawn. Discover the antiquity of each unique room and suite in The Beechmont one by one. Settle into a wingback chair and watch the flames dance in the marble fireplace of the Magnolia Suite. Swing open the doors of the Garden Gate Suite and step into a whimsical courtyard reflecting the changes of the seasons.
