Now that Thanksgiving has passed, I think it’s reasonable to start Christmas shopping. My goal each year is to find the perfect gift that someone actually needs, or something fun that fits their personality. The best way to fulfill my goal is to visit holiday bazaars, Christmas villages, and Christkindlesmarkt’s that sell the treasures that you can’t find in a department store! Lancaster Amish Country has some great options for finding that perfect gift. And what better way to shop than to also be on vacation and staying in a Lancaster Pennsylvania bed and breakfast? With 41inns in the Authentic bed and breakfast association of Lancaster County, you’ll be sure to find an inn that fits your needs and leaves you feeling relaxed for all the unique shopping experiences.
There are two Christkindlesmarkts in Lancaster County this year: in Adamstown at Stoudt’s and at the Brendle Museum in Schaefferstown. Stoudt’s celebrates the five Sundays before Christmas from 7:30-2 pm. Known as the Antique Capital, it’s no surprise that there are plenty of antique crafts and decorations. Be sure to visit the Wonderful Good Market for seasonal treats and artisan cheese to help make your holidays special. In addition to the shopping, there is festive music and food to get your family in the Christmas spirit. If you happen to be visiting on December 5, you just might run into St. Nicholas! On Sunday December 11, from 9-3 pm, the Brendle Museum will have handmade crafts that represent the 1800s. The most exciting part of this Christkindlmarkt is the Tavern Lunch from 10-2 pm. Be sure to make your reservations for this authentic colonial-style lunch and entertaining hosts.
Zion Lutheran Church will host a Holiday Bazaar on December 3rd and 4th. In Leola, Pa this bazaar will feature quality crafts, pottery, home decor, kids’ corner, baked goods, food, and cookie decorating!
My favorite place to shop during the Christmas season is Kitchen Kettle Village. In addition to the quaint shops and delicious food, they celebrate Holly Days and Old Fashioned Christmas Friday Nights. Be sure to visit for caroling, cookies, s’mores, and roaming musicians. You won’t find a more fun and less stressful way to complete your holiday shopping!
Be sure to plan your visit today to Lancaster Pa and stay at a unique bed and breakfast. You’ll delight in the treasures and hospitality you’ll find at an Authentic B&B. I challenge you to visit in hopes of finding some unique gifts for friends and family.
