- There always seems to be something going on at Inn Serendipity. Locally-known by some as that "interesting couple on County P," we can only reply that its the energy of the land and the sense of place that so inspires us along with the steady stream of guests and visitors, whether they join us for a weekend escape, a home tour, garden tour or one of our workshops on the farm.
Below are a few of the articles that have been written about what we're striving toward here at Inn Serendipity. We are thankful to the writers and publications for giving coverage to some of the many ideas and projects going on, so that others might share in our experiences.
Please visit the calendar of events for information about the many workshops or our other speaking engagements.
