Lynn was so accomodating with helping us get to where we needed to go. Very knowledgable about the area, a wonderful chef with varied and scrumtous breakfasts.Rooms well appointed, very comfy and was neat to hear the clip clop of Amish buggies going past. Looking forward to a return visit. Wait til you experience those sheets!!! More

We had such a great experience at this B&B. The inn keepers are wonderful people, and the inn is beautiful. They let us check in early, and they even gave us a free upgrade! There are all sorts of nice little touches throughout the inn-- like fresh cookies in the lobby, free beverages, and robes in the room. The sheets... More

Although my wife and I live in Lancaster Pa, we have found that we don't have to go far to get away from the kids and the everyday hustle and bustle of life. We have spent several weekends at the Australian Walkabout Inn and each visit is just as relaxing, invigorationg and wonderful as the last. From the moment we... More

I am not a huge fan of B&Bs but my mind was changed at the Australian Walkabout Inn in Lancaster. Inn keepers Bob and Lynne Griffin have done an amazing job of bringing completely modern ammenities (like small flatscreen TVs and beautifully tiled bathrooms) to the Victorian home without changing its character. The bedrooms were painted warm and welcoming colors... More

Rather last minute, we decided to celebrate my birthday and our wedding anniversary in Lancaster. Impressed by the online reviews of the Australian Walkabout Inn (and the winter special), we booked to stay there for two nights. We found the Outback cottage to be cosy and romantic, and especially loved having a hot tub in the cottage. Lynne was very... More

The McLaren Vale Suite was a very pretty room and the hot tub on the sun room was a added bonus. It was a nice time away with my spouse & would love to go back sometime for a longer period of time. The house was decorated nicely for Christmas time and the rooms are decorated nicely. It is close... More

Lynne was very helpful and friendly and she made a terrific... More

My wife & I found the Walkabout to be on beautiful property and centrally located to many Lancaster attractions we wanted to attend. We had never stayed at a B&B before. We found it very strange & uncomfortable. We explained to the proprietor, Miss Lynn, that it was not for us. She allowed us to check out after just 1... More

My husband and I stayed at this B&B when visiting the Lancaster area and going to the Sight & Sound Theater production of Joseph. Lynne made us feel at home even though we were a last minute arrival. She offered us wine, beer, and delicious choc. chip cookies upon arrival. She has a large selection of DVDS for viewing. Our... More

My partner and I decided to take a mini-vacation while he was on R&R from his deployment in Afghanistan. We booked the Outback Cottage for two nights mid-week and were not disappointed. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, and the hot tub was a definite bonus. It was very clean, and there were even robes provided for when we... More
