Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.
We encourage our guests to disconnect and unwind while staying at our Inn. Once you check-in you’ll find that we make it very easy to relax. With no distractions such as televisions or wifi you’ll be able to truly enjoy the natural beauty of the smells, sounds, and sights of rural farm life. Hear our rooster crow and watch them nest in trees at dusk. Watch the goats and sheep play in pastures. Collect free-range eggs. Cut flowers or stroll out to barn.

The space
Enjoy your stay in our renovated farmhouse that was initially a log cabin built in the 1800s. It is perfectly nestled in between pastures and trees and is a short walk to our gardens and a beautiful bank barn.

The staff that you will find cleaning the Inn, making up your room, and setting out coffee and other treats are learning how to be inn-keepers. This is an active farm with people who have intellectual and developmental disabilities that work daily with our livestock, agriculture, and the Inn. They take great pride in making your stay as comfortable as possible. By staying at the Inn guests increase the opportunity for inn-keepers to make interesting acquaintances, learn about new places, become more proficient at hospitality and housekeeping, and share their enthusiasm and knowledge about Red Tomato Farm & Inn.

Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire 1st and 2nd floors which includes the 2nd-floor bedrooms and bathrooms, guest lounge/workspace; the 1st-floor living area, dining room, kitchen, workspace, and laundry room; and the outside patio, backyard, fire pit, and picnic area.

Other things to note
HANDICAP ACCESSIBILITY:
Unfortunately, due to the age and interior architecture, the inn is NOT handicap accessible. All guest rooms are located on the second floor via stairs.

AIR CONDITIONING:
To preserve the authenticity of our renovated farmhouse which was initially a log cabin built in the 1800s and the overall farm stay experience, we do not have air conditioning. We do offer portable fans during the warm seasons and heat during the cool seasons.

WIFI:
We do not have wifi at the Inn.

Neighborhood highlights

Our Inn is conveniently located just south of Carlisle, Pennsylvania allowing for an easy drive to Gettysburg, Hershey, Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Lancaster. Our Newville, PA lodging is close to the Appalachian Trail for fantastic hiking and gorgeous fall foliage in the autumn months. Kings Gap Environmental Education Center has varied trails to accommodate all levels of hikers. Yellow Breeches or the LeTort Spring Run provides an excellent opportunity for fly fishing.

For those that enjoy cars, Carlisle is known for its collector car shows held at the Carlisle Fairgrounds during the spring, summer, and fall seasons.

The Carlisle area is the home to many higher education institutes such as Dickinson College, Messiah College, and Penn State’s Dickinson School of Law. Also, Shippensburg University is located nearby. It's also notable that the US Army War College at Carlisle Barracks, home of the Carlisle Indian School (Jim Thorpe’s alma mater), is in close proximity to our Inn.

Red Tomato Farm & Inn and Stone Hosue Farm & Inn are projects I started to demonstrate the competencies of people with intellectual disabilities. The Inns at both farms provide training and employment and are an opportunity to meet new people, so every guest visit is important. We are not looking to be 5-star rated, but we are looking for your support. Our aim is to provide a pleasant stay.
