It’s the most wonderful time of the year in New Hope! Charming homes around town have decked their halls with décor, lights, and swag. Shoppers are scavenging small shops to find the perfect gifts. Family and friends gather to share the spirit of the season. There’s still much to do in 2018 and 2019 is just around the corner! Check out our top holiday picks for this year and next, then plan your stay at The Carriage House of New Hope.

Gather up the family, put on your PJ’s, and take a train ride though beautiful Bucks County! Up until December 31st, the New Hope & Ivyland Railroad will be toting around travelers with hot chocolate, freshly baked cookies, and live Christmas carols. On Santa’s Steam Spectacular, tell jolly old Saint Nick your Christmas wishes. For a trip back in time, ride the North Pole Express, pulled by a vintage diesel locomotive.

The holidays are not complete without a trip to Peddler’s Village! Stop by the Christmas Festival & Gingerbread House Competition before January 1st to view imaginative gingerbread houses like you’ve never seen before. There are ample stores to check off those last minute items on your shopping list and plenty of dining options too. After dark, pick up some warm apple cider before strolling along the stretch of glowing lights.
