MOUNT HOPE

Over the course of two centuries, Mount Hope Estate and Winery, located in Northern Lancaster County, has grown from a private residence to a flourishing historic estate featuring spectacular entertainment. Outdoor festivals, indoor theater, a Victorian wine shop and on-site brewery and winery locations provide something for everyone 365 days of the year... Mount Hope began as the summer home for four generations of the Grubb family, an early American iron master family who found their way from England seeking their fortune. The properties that were to become the Estate were purchased in 1779 and Peter Grubb established an iron furnace at Mount Hope in 1784. His son, Henry Bates Grubb, built the original Federal Period Mansion between 1800-1805. At the same time, the formal gardens surrounding the Mansion were created including trees, an elaborate grand avenue of colored flowers and pillared entrances to the various stone roadways leading to the Estate, all of which continues to exist..
