Plan the Ultimate Romantic Getaway in Pennsylvania This Year

Now that you know where you’ll be staying in Sharon, it’s time to start filling out your itinerary for your next romantic getaway in Pennsylvania. Depending on the season, you’ll find a host of outdoor activities, wineries to visit, historical sites, and lovely restaurants for date night to add to your list. Whatever adventure you choose, when you get back to your guest room, you’ll be ready for a bubble bath in our oversized jetted tubs! 

Here are the most romantic things to do in Pennsylvania for couples: 

1. Spend the Day at the Spa: With Buhl Mansion as your home base, there’s no excuse not to plan a spa day during your stay! We have a list of spa packages designed for couples, including our new Chocolate Indulgence Package, which is four and a half hours of pure bliss with your partner. From couples massages and body treatments to nail care and facials, you’ll be on cloud nine at our Pevonia International elite spa. 
2. Wine Tasting Around Mercer County: There is a lovely selection of wineries in Pennsylvania in Mercer County near Sharon for a fantastic tour of our beautiful countryside. If you’re joining us in the spring for a romantic getaway in Pennsylvania, The Gatehouse Winery and Mortal Keys Brewing is the perfect destination for wine and beer tasting, as well as wood-fired pizzas. For a year-round location, head to “The Property” by Nova Destinations in Pulaksi for a full experience of wine, beer, spirits, cider, and mead tastings. 
3. A Beer with Waterfall Views: While breweries aren’t always the first thing that comes to mind for a romantic date, Cobblehaus at the Falls is perched on a bluff overlooking a stunning waterfall. Head down the trails to a seating area surrounded by stone with picnic tables and yard games for a close-up view of the rushing falls and relax. 
4. Romantic Strolls at Buhl Park: An iconic landmark in Hermitage, PA, Buhl Park has long been a community gathering space. Take a brisk walk along the fitness trails and meander through wooded areas and open meadows. If you’re a golfer, you’ll have to hit the links at the only free golf course in the nation. 
5. A Lively Lunch at Donna’s Diner: Take a step back in time for a patty melt and handmade milkshake (one of the top ten in the state) at this local stalwart diner in Sharon, PA. An anchor on West State Street for decades, you’ll love enjoying a good old-fashioned date. Overnight guests of Buhl Mansion receive a discount! Ask your innkeeper for more details. 
6. Shopping for Sweet Treats: Since 1949, Daffin’s Candies has created high-quality, locally made chocolates and confections. Through the passion and legacy of the Daffin family, the company continues to produce both time-honored chocolates and new sweet creations for the local community. It’s right next door to the mansion, so you can’t miss it! 
7. Outdoor Adventures with Carried Away Outfitters: Depending on the season you’re planning your romantic getaway in Pennsylvania, there are so many beautiful state parks and outdoor areas to explore. We always suggest checking out Carried Away Outfitters, a local group offering kayaking tours, bike excursions, and more. 
8. An Elegant Dinner at Stonewall’s Tavern: Our sister property in Clark, PA, is a hidden gem for romantic getaways. Tara – A Country Inn has sweeping grounds with trails leading to the Shedango River Reserve. The on-site restaurant, Stonewall’s Tavern, is the perfect place for an intimate dinner for two. It offers hearty steaks, sides, and an excellent wine list.
