Guests of Buhl Mansion can choose to dine by candlelight in Ashley’s Gourmet Restaurant or casually at Stonewall’s Tavern both located at the Inn’s sister property, Tara – A Country Inn, located just ten minutes away. The Buhl Mansion includes limousine shuttles for those wishing to enjoy an incredible meal at either of Tara’s award winning restaurants.
Tara is a 27-room inn inspired by the film Gone with the Wind. For those that are are avid historians of the epic film, there is movie memorabilia and Civil War antiques and are on display for guests to see. There is even the bed jacket worn by actress Vivien Leigh in the film’s honeymoon scene.
Tara has a similar history to that of the Buhl Mansion. Originally it was the private home of Senator Charles Koonce who made his fortune in coal and real estate. After being acquired by different owners the Winner’s saved this glorious building which was in a state of disrepair.
As a guest at either inn, you can walk through the hallways and look at all the other lavish guestrooms. If a room is not occupied the door is left open, with a rope across the entrance, so guests can see some of the other elegant rooms.
During warmer weather you can walk the beautiful gardens that overlook Shenango Lake or take a dip in the heated pool. Complimentary bicycles are also available for all the guests.
Indoors partake in exquisite afternoon tea, where a hostess in a Gone with the Wind-style gown serves you. Both inns have received awards from the Pennsylvania Tourism & Lodging Association.
The staff ensure you are treated Iike a guest in both of the inns and include all the amenities to make your stay a luxurious one. Both inns are also members of Select Registry, Distinguished Inns of North America
Both properties are perfect for a fairytale style wedding or a romantic getaway. You can count on me to be booking a
much-needed getaway with my Prince Charming very soon! Hopefully then I’ll get to stay out past midnight and keep both my glass slippers!
