The Inn and Spa at Intercourse, Pennsylvania provided a warm, intimate place to rest away from the rainy weather outside. The furnishings I saw at the Inn were exquisite and thoughtfully arranged. Our room, the Zimmerman Room was the cozy place to be with the wind and rain ruling the outdoors. It offered lots of natural light. It had a centralized floor plan, and with the queen bed in the middle felt like the center of the empire like a French King's palace. It was our place where my SO (significant other) and me lounged with the pillows, curled ourselves up in little shapes and giggled like kids thinking our real world was continents away. It was that easy to do. We'll be back to try out your Attic, which we have heard is a hideaway retreat where two can stay . . . for a while. Thanks folks, it's been two great stays where everything has been taken care of.

I stayed at Intercourse BB mostly because I thought it would be funny to say I stayed at Intercourse on my wedding anniversary (yeah, I'm immature like that). However, I can honestly say that it was one of the best choices I've made. The rooms were awesome, the food was delicious, and the service was exceptional. I will definitely be staying here again when my wife and I need a retreat for some relaxation.

This is the only place to stay in Lancaster county. It has ruined us for any other B&B. Amazing rooms and kind, genuine staff.

The Inn and Spa at Intercourse Village is a wonderful place to go. The staff is friendly and wonderful, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The Harness Shed suites have a sitting area with a fireplace, which is a wonderful place to take a break in between shopping and shows. The several course breakfast they serve is very unique and tasty. My husband and I return several times a year, as we have never found a place we are more comfortable to go to just to get away for the weekend!
Risposta del proprietario
We are so glad we have become your go to place when you're in need of a getaway. The Harness Shed suite is a guest favorite, with stone fireplace and corner Jacuzzi tub; it sets the tone for relaxation and romance. We truly appreciate your loyalty.

My girl and I went here during the off season and it was a first stay at a B & B we could not have picked a better place. The staff go out of their way to see that everything is to your satisfaction. By the end we had already decided that a return was necessary when the weather is warmer.
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for your great recommendation! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and will be coming back to visit when the weather is warmer.

This was our first time here. My wife and I were immediately impressed by the main house - it had the comforting feel of a B&B yet not overly frilly. And our room - the Thomas Suite - was so much more than we expected. On the third floor, it was very spacious with a decor just our style. The Jacuzzi and mini kitchen were great. And the staff were very warm and friendly. We highly recommend this B&B!
Risposta del proprietario
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and the hospitality of our staff. It truly is our pleasure to get to know our guests and to provide an atmosphere that promotes relaxation. We are also glad you appreciated the recently remodeled Thomas suite, so spacious and warm.

Spent one night at this lovely B&B in the Thomas Suite. Every aspect of our stay was great, from reception to check-out. We were greeted warmly, and the innkeepers provided for our every need. Our room boasted two TVs and two DVD players and the inn had a wide selection of movies to choose from. They even provided popcorn! They gave free reign of the refreigerator, and laid out fruit and cookies.The room was lovely and well-maintained. Breakfast was a delicious five-course affair served on an immaculately laid table. All in all this was a great stay and I would recommend this B&B.

We love to come to lacanster because of the beautiful b&b's & inns. Our usual inn was closed for winter so we decided to try the inn & spa at intercourse, it looked great online & when we arrived it did not disappoint! We stayed in the harness shed suite it was so roomy but cozy..we chose to have breakfast in our room each morning which was wonderful. We also took advantage of the spa a couple of steps away..very convienant. We absolutely will be back and have recommended it to friends already..Thanks for a great stay! Deneen & Darren

We recently spent 3 nights here and loved it all. From the wood burning stove, the robes, the fabulous sheets and the breakfasts. They are really 5 courses and wonderful. Plan on staying there the next time we are in the area.
Risposta del proprietario
So many people ask about and purchase our sheets. We purchase from the "Comphy Co" and they sure do live up to their name. With a comfortable bed and the fireplace going it's hard to leave the room. Thank you for sharing and staying with us; we look forward to your return.

Our stay at The Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village was phenomenal. The accommodations that the staff provided was beyond our expectation and their hospitality was so warm and genuine that it made my wife and me feel like family with all the comforts of home. We also had the privilege to meet several wonderful couple there that we became good friends with. When it comes to having an awesome stay that's worth the money my wife and I recommend that you stay at The Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village.

From the moment we enter the wonderfully decorated Inn until we completed our breakfast before we left, the weekend was simply totaling relaxing. Anything we asked for was granted, any questions we asked were answered immediately. These inn keepers know how to take care of their guests.

My wife and I felt that from the moment we first talked with an Inn & Spa staff person on the phone that we were going to be in for a special treat - & we weren't disappointed. The initial reception was warm & friendly, the accommodations unique & finely appointed, and a personal note was left on a counter acknowledging my recent retirement - nice touch. We loved the feel of the various buildings (house & two out building), along with the walking path, gardens & fencing - giving the Inn & Spa a village within a village feel. Breakfasts were a feast - we always left the table full. Prior to indulging, the staff chef greeted us & informed us about the delectables in front of us.Additional amenities including delicious cookies & chocolate treats in our suite, as well as beverages, fruit, candies, cookies, popcorn & DVD housed in the living room. We're already trying to find a way back to the Inn & Spa - perhaps we'll see you there! And, speaking of other guests, that was another highlight - meeting wonderful people from all over the U.S. - Phil (Mt. Holly, NJ)

My husband and I stayed at the Inn and Spa for our "babymoon" recently and it was a wonderful experience. We stayed in the Beiler suite, which was beautiful and perfect. Everything is taken care of before you even think to ask for it. The innkeepers are very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and always willing to help out. The breakfast was amazing, wonderful and delicious food that kept us full until dinner. The inn is located in a fantastic location, right across from Kitchen Kettle Village, walking distance to all kinds of shops and short drives to restaurants and attractions. The spa is also fantastic, the services are fairly prices and very relaxing. It was a wonderful, peaceful experience and we will be back. If I had to say anything negative about the inn, it would be that our room got very warm, almost uncomfortably so, at times, and the wifi signal is weak, at best. But those were small things that paled in comparison to our amazing experience.
Risposta del proprietario
Having spa appointments is a perfect way to compliment a relaxing stay. Our unique location allows our guests to feel miles away from all of life's stresses, yet located within walking distance to many quaint shoppes and attractions. We are so pleased to here that we not only met, but exceeded your expectations. Think of us again when needing that special getaway!

Our only complaint would be the bed pillows. They were too soft. Other than that everything was great.

So glad you had a great time! The next time you come, be sure to let an innkeeper know you prefer firm pillows and we will be glad to replace any down ones with cotton. See you soon!

My husband & I have drove past The Inn & Spa for years and finally decided to treat ourselves to a night away for an early anniversary gift. We stayed in the Harness Shed suite and absolutely loved it. We requested rose petal turn down. We found our night away to be so relaxing and romantic and worth every penny. Our breakfast, which we requested to be in our room was delicious. I have celiac so the chef paid extra attention and made delicious gluten free pancakes with homemade blueberry syrup and banana muffin....just simply awesome. The staff will just go above & beyond to make your stay enjoyable. We also took advantage of the spa being there and had a couple massage....a first for us both but was so relaxing and loved it. We had the best time and our stay was so memorable. We will definitely stay again and highly recommend staying there. You will not be disappointed.

This was the first time I had ever stayed at a B&B. The staff were exceptional, the rooms more than comfortable, and the scenery in itself was worth the rate. I wanted a ghost tour and within 5 minutes the Innkeeper had one pulled up and a dinner option thrown in as well. We took both and it just added to our excitement and pleasurable experience.

Your help was very nice and helpful. I Love the Main house this is the kind of home I always dreamed of having. When I can get away again I will be staying with you. The only any I missed is a claw foot tub. I love taking a hot bath. But the room was beautiful I could have stayed in there all day.

Our main goal was to go and relax! And we were more than relaxed when we left the Inn and Spa of Intercourse PA!! Everyone was so friendly and made sure you were taken care of. My husband and I loved all if the extra touches in our room. They thought of everything right down to romantic music and candles! We felt like we were family by the time we left. We've decided we are going to make this a yearly tradition! Loved the shops in the town and you must take in a show at Sight and Sound!

We have a saying that so many of the folks who come to stay with us, arrive as guests and leave as friends. It truly is a pleasure to provide a place of respite, relaxation and romance. There is so much to do in Lancaster County, we have guests return year after year. We are glad you found us.

We were lucky enough to pick up a last minute cancellation thanks to a thoughtful phone call from one of the innkeepers. We had our heart set on the harvest shed suite, but only the Thomas suite was available. Our suite encompassed the entire 3rd floor of the main house. The suite was immaculate and so cozy. The inn's attention to detail is superb...candles around the jacuzzi, keurig machine en suite, plush robes, turn down service, delicious breakfast. I could just go on and on. They thought of everything. We loved our suite so much; it will be our first choice next time.

Looked for and found more modernly designed rooms at the Inn. The woodwork, furniture and Amish charm of the Esh suite were very comfortable. Felt like we were in a cabin in the woods. Even though the barn house another occupied guest room, it was very quiet. Breakfast and a great variety of foods although they settled too much on the sweet side for my wife's liking.

We are pleased you found your respite from the busy world here at our Historic Inn, without compromising any modern amenities. We look forward to your return, be sure to let your innkeeper know your wife's breakfast preferences; our chef can often accommodate.

We spent New Year's Eve at this delightful B&B, in the quaint village of Intercourse. The staff is so accommodating and friendly, our suite was lovely, and overall, everything was perfect, except the 5-course breakfast. Although quite elegant, I can't do sweets in the morning, and except for the cheddar and broccoli quiche and the smoked sausage, the remaining 4 courses were sweet. I was dying for a piece of toast, or a roll. But don't let this stop you. We will definitely be back to this charming Inn.

My husband visited the Inn for the first time and found it very comfortable and relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed the couples massage in the privacy of our room. Breakfast was delicious and filling. The area is very quaint with plenty of lovely, little shops. Most close early on Saturday and are closed on Sunday, so you should plan accordingly. We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed in the Thomas Suite or aka the Penthouse Suite, because it is on the 3rd floor of the main house. The room was incredible with the king size sleigh bed and the jacuzzi tub. It also had 2 flat panel tv's, one at the foot of the bed and the other in the sitting area. I also had the I Love You package so the room greeted us with fresh flowers, Godiva Chocolates, and a bottle of sparkling grape juice. The staff was very friendly and courteous, even during the power outage(which doesn't happen often) when they greeted us with water bottles and a candle. Breakfast in the morning was not gut busting, but rather very flavorful and elegant as it was served over 5 courses. My wife and I can not wait to go back and enjoy their hospitality again.

Risposta del proprietario
Thank you so much for your gracious comments. Although everyone at breakfast is served the same entree we are always careful to ask for any special dietary restrictions or allergies so our chef can plan accordingly and everyone is able to enjoy their meal. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to your return.

The room was exceptionally clean. The Innkeeper put a special note in our room before our arrival wishing us a happy anniversary. We loved all the little details such as leaving an umbrella for us outside of our room so we didn't have to walk to the main house for breakfast in the rain. The breakfast was a magnificent five course hearty breakfast. We also had the priviledge of having breakfast delivered to our room which was a special treat for our anniversary breakfast followed by an in-room couples massage from the spa next door. We highly recommend The Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village and hope to return in the future.

My husband and I had a very relaxing stay in the Lapp Suite, the room was comfortable and very restful. Having the suite was a great choice, a place to sit and talk and watch some TV. My only suggestion would be one more chair our friends were in the next suite and I ended up sitting on the floor which is ok since I do it at home but another chair would be nice especially if we were all playing cards or a board game. The location was great easy to walk to great shops and easy driving to other attractions. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Loraine Dentel

We had a delightful visit at the Inn, and we would not hesitate to come back. The only possible thing missing from our room was a big comfy stuffed chair. The staff were friendly and helpful.

They have made loyal customers out of us! We will definitely be back!

The Inn is a charming comfortable place to spend a couple of getaway days. Our mother/daughter trip could not have been more enjoyable. Spa treatments were among the best that we've ever had. The technicians were extremely knowledgeable and provided just the relaxation we needed. I've already recommended it to some of my friends. Myrna

We spent two lovely nights as a short get-a-way to celebrate our 40th anniversary. The Inn keepers were friendly and made us feel right at home! What a fond memory we have of the special occasion we can keep with us! This is a great place for a romantic get-a-way or just a place to relax and catch your breath.

This Inn was spectacular!! My husband and I spent one night (wish it was more!) in the Harness Shed Suite. Private entrance, sitting room with gas fireplace, kitchenette, jacuzzi, king bed. What struck me right off the bat was how CLEAN it was!! And I'm a stickler for clean! Every amenity you could think of was there. Even extra candles for around the jacuzzi! The innkeeper made us feel like we were staying with friends...very casual but very elegant. The candlelit five-course breakfast (you could opt to have it brought to your room) was delicious and the innkeeper recommended a great place for dinner. There are so many places to walk to right in downtown Intercourse and most things we planned to do were less than a 15 minute drive. Very convenient and lots of Amish buggies and craft stores if you want the nice Amish experience! Will definitely visit again!

There was virtually nothing more we could have asked for. This place has it all. Seldom have seen a B&B or hotel pay such attention to every detail regarding your needs and comfort. Hard to believe because it is such a rare thing, but everything was perfect. And they offer such nice touches as a welcome email a few days before arrival, asking if there was anything they could do for you...and then a thank-you email when you return home. Our suite (summerhouse), breakfast, service, amenities were all five-star quality.

Right out of the gate, the staff was informative and helpful from explaining surroundings to making special reservations at restaurants for the evening, they are very accommodating. The breakfast was well thought out and just right to start the day. But the rooms are the cleanest that i have ever seen. Tank you for the perfect 24 year anniversary for my wife and myself. Can't wait for next year we are gonna renew our vows in their wedding gazebo courtyard and they said they will handle the whole process. I am looking forward to it.

This was an amazing B&B! We stayed in The Harness Shed Sweet. I just loved everything about this place. Very nice for romantic getaway with my hubby. I would highly recommend this Inn to anyone looking for a quiet, personal space. The innkeeper was exceptionally nice and having room service for breakfast was very nice. Not to mention the food!!! I was very impressed by the menu we were served. The outdoor area was beautiful and there was nice music playing if you'd like to have a dance while there. Overall our stay there was exceptional. Can't wait to stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was a beautiful area, with a beautiful bed and breakfast! It was historic and charming, while also having modern amenities. The spa right next door to the bed and breakfast was a fabulous asset to this property, but the bed and breakfast alone was beautiful and cozy for relaxing, shopping, or romancing. Location is in Amish country and near 2 amazing outlet shopping malls. Restaurants in the area were well recommended and certainly lived up to their reputation.

This was by far, the must pleasant of my expiences at a B&B. Very user friendly website for reservations, extremely competitive rate in these hardship of economical times, endless suggestions on the surrounding area, very elegant, cozy, and romantic rooms with outstasnding atmosphere, and every needed conveinience . This will absolutely NOT be our last stay at the Inn, and will share this most rewarding experience with everyone I know

I planned our 25th wedding anniversary with the intentions of spending more on a 2-night stay in a beautiful decorated suite instead of spending that money and travel time on airfare or a cruise. The Harness Suite at The Inn & Spa of Intercourse (Lancaster, PA) made for the best anniversary, plus we are very familiar with Lancaster and love the area so this was the best choice for us. The things we loved about the room were the jacuzzi tub, waterfall shower head, a very comfortable King bed, living room area and the special touches that the chef did at my request: cheese, fruit & cracker plate, non-alcoholic champagne that was the best!, chocolate covered strawberries and our breakfast delivered to our room each morning. All the food was delicious and we had access to the main house for sodas, water, cookies, pretzels and DVD movies and books. My husband and I also indulged in the spa next door - he had a full body massage and I had a facial which included hands & feet and both were the best we had ever had. We also dined at two new local restaurants: Revere Tavern near Paradise and the Fireside Tavern on the Strasburg bypass - both had excellent food. There are great shops and many scenic country roads to explore and view the beauty of Amish farmland and the Park City Mall and outlets are not far away. In the morning and night we also loved the clickety-clock sound of Amish horse and buggies outside passing by. I cannot say enough about how comfortable and relaxed we were and how much we enjoyed our stay and time spent in Lancaster. As my husband put it, "this will be something I will always remember."

We stayed here for our honeymoon and couldn't have been happier. The pictures on-line do not do it justice. The service is awesome, the suite was immaculate and roomy and the gazebo in the back is stunning. Christmas time is the best time to go, the music playing in the yard was the perfect touch.

The only complaint we have is when we stayed on the 1st floor of the cottages out back. You could hear the folks in the room above you. This had us up until past 3:00 am which we were not pleased with. We started our 15 wedding anniversary tour at a different location and traveled down through Lancaster to the Inn & Spa. Don't get me wrong it was beautiful. we just didn't get the rest we wanted/needed from our big day of traveling..
Risposta del proprietario
We are glad you enjoyed the beauty of our Inn for your anniversary, however we are disheartened to hear that you didn't receive the rest you craved. We truly care about the comfort of all of our guests and wish we had the opportunity to call the folks above you to ask them to quiet down. Being an upscale bed and breakfast, we rarely have any issues with guests being discourteous to each other. We would love to have you visit again and find the relaxation that so many others have found at our Inn.

We have been wanting to stay at your INN for a long time. Finally we did & we were not disappointed.We stayed in the Harness suite, better than the photos. It was so warm & inviting, all the colonial touches were so authentic. The bed was king size & very comfortable, between the f/p & jacuzzi, plus the 2 HD tv's we could have lived there. the extra nice touch was having our Breakfast delivered to our rm, both my husband & I have medical problems, which would have made it somewhat difficult getting to the dr.Shopping was nearby & at night we had alot of options for Dinner, only a short drive away. Next time we will stay longer & see a show, I'd like to stay in the suite that I think is like a honeymoon suite. The one problem are the prices, so I'LL wait for a special. All in All my husband & I had a great time ,no c/o & would recomend it for any couple in love! NJ
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for your gracious comments regarding your recent stay. We are so glad the Harness Shed Suite exceeded your expectations with all of the extra touches. It is one of our goals to have our guests feel at home in their suites and we're glad to hear you didn't want to leave. Just so you are aware we currently have three grand (or honeymoon) suites and the Harness Shed is one of them. We also offer very spacious, romantic and economical country homestead suites or quaint Victorian rooms as an alternative to the grand suites. We look forward to seeing you on your next visit.

I would definitely recommend to friends and stay again myself...two comments that would have enhanced our stay...a choice of breakfast seating and knowing that the spa amenities close on Saturday the same time as check-in for the Inn...
Risposta del proprietario
We are so glad you enjoyed your recent stay with us and are recommending our property to your friends. We offer several different options for breakfast. Although we set the breakfast time in the main house in order to have a served fine dining experience, we also offer room service and vouchers to a nearby restaurant that serves breakfast all day to insure that all of our guests' needs are met. Thank you so much for your input regarding our Spa's hours. We are always looking for ways to improve our guests' overall experience and have decided to try changing our Spa hours to stay open until 8pm beginning in February 2012. Thank you for your kind comments and we look forward to your return.

My wife and I stayed in the Lapp Suite... We chose it because we felt it to be the best value and it still had a fireplace and "jet tub". When we got there we were slightly disappointed to find that the tub was not a hot tub style but a jacuzzi style and an older model at that. It appeared old and somewhat beat so we did not use it. All else about the experience was great. Great breakfast... Very nice staff.
Risposta del proprietario
We are glad you had a great experience at our Inn and enjoyed getting to know our staff. We would like to clear up any confusion regarding your suite choice. The Lapp suite is one of our first floor country homestead suites which offers a standard size tub and shower combination which has whirlpool jets. Our two-person Jacuzzi tubs are offered in our Grand Suites. If the relaxation of a Jacuzzi is the escape you are looking for, be sure to book one of our Grand suites on your next visit.

From the moment we arrived, we were treated to warm welcomes and great attention to our every need. Restaurant recommendations were "right on" as were hints on which stores to visit and excursions to take. The hostesses remembered our names and spent much time being sure we were happy and pleased with the Inn. I was especially appreciative of the concern given to my dietary needs. I am lactose intolerant and this was handled beautifully (and deliciously) by our hostess and the chef. What a restful, beautiful vacation. My husband and I highly recommend The Inn and Spa at Intercourse Village.

Thank you for your gracious comments. Our experienced chef is pleased to be able to accommodate special allergies and dietary concerns whenever possible. So many of our returning guests appreciate the warmth, attentiveness and knowledge of our staff which helps to make our Inn a choice destination.

Inn and Spa is hands down the best place to stay in Lancaster County.....We have been coming out to Lancaster for years and have tried them all, but this is second to none when it comes to everything....Great care is taken by the staff, and the grounds are well kept.....I have nothing bad to say about anything while we stayed there....Will be guest there many more times....

I recently stayed at the Inn it was very nice.The people were very nice,.The rooms were extremely clean and the breakfast was very good. The only thing is if you want to have anything done at the spa make sure you make reservations before your get there. Also I wish check in was a little earlier then 4:00 pm.
Risposta del proprietario
We are so glad you thoroughly enjoyed your stay. For the future we often can accommodate an earlier check-in time. We guarantee all rooms to be ready by 4pm however, if you are in the area give us a call and if your room is ready earlier we would be happy to check you in. We often have rooms available as early as 2pm. We hope that is helpful.

It was my Wife's Birthday and the Inn reall did something nice. Thet had a bottle non-alcholic sparkling wine in our room for her along with a birthday card. Nice touch!! If I had one compliment (if you want to call it that) is that a 10:00 Breakfast is a little to late. However the Breakfast was great.
Risposta del proprietario
What a wonderful way to celebrate a special occasion by visiting us at the Inn & Spa. We wish we knew your desire to have breakfast at an earlier time; we are often able to accommodate requests by offering either an 8:30 breakfast time, room service or ticket vouchers to a local restaurant that opens at 6:00am. We are glad you enjoyed yourselves and look forward to your next visit to Amish country.

This was very nice place to stay. We were welcomed in a friendly manner, given a tour of the home, our room, and the grounds. They were available when we needed them for service or to ask questions. The room and Inn was very clean, well kept and the furnishings were as good. The only comment I have is the breakfast was not as I expected it to be. They said they hire a chef, the breakfast was not up to par - not well cooked and not what we were led to expect. The dining room was set up the best I have seen in a B&B.
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for all the accolades regarding our grounds, staff and accommodations. We will take your comments regarding breakfast under advisement, although they do seem to be inconsistent with other reviews. We take great pride in making sure all aspects of our guests' stay is pleasant, relaxing and second to none. We look forward to having the opportunity to serve you in the future.

For a superb romantic (or non-romantic) getaway, this is the place to go. Everything was superb, especially the 5 course breakfast, interior design work, hospitality, service, cleanliness, AC in the summer, etc.! Caution: On Sundays, none of the shops and restaurants in Intercourse, PA or surrounding areas are open, so book this B&B accordingly. A must place to stay at least once.

My husband and I chose the Inn and Spa at Intercourse Village for a two-day getaway to relax and re-connect, and it was absolutely wonderful! We stayed in the Harness Shed Suite (pictured). It was very clean and quiet. The people were extremely nice and accomodating. The location is great, within walking distance to all sorts of shops in the Kitchen Kettle Village. Any type of restaurant that you could imagine is within a short distance. Each day, we spent the morning relaxing in the garden, and then enjoyed a five course breakfast by candlelight. The Spa is great too! I enjoyed a sixty-minute massage while I was there. Make sure that you book your spa sessions early, so you can ensure you get the availability and time that you need. I definitely recommend staying here, especially if you are looking for a romantic get away. I would go again in a heartbeat! I also recommend the Greenfield Inn Restaurant and the Sight and Sound Theater...

My husband and I spent a weekend at Intercourse Inn and Spa to celebrate my 50th birthday and the 29th anniversary of the day we met. This was the second time we stayed at this location. On our first stay it was winter and cold outside so we stayed in one of the Deluxe Suites. It was perfect for that time of year with the two person jacuzzi tub. On this past trip it was summer and hot, so we decided to stay in a Homestead Suite. It was wonderful!! It had a one person jetted tub, a large living room, and beautiful bedroom with a very comfortable bed. The day we arrived it was pouring down rain, an umbrella was left at our door for our use. Breakfast is unbelievable, you won't need lunch!!!! We have already made our reservation to return for our 29th wedding anniversary, and are so looking forward to it.

My wife and I hadn't decided where we were going to stay when we left that day for our anniversary. When we got there we looked at another place but the other place just didn't seem to be what we were looking for so I told her lets check out this other place I saw on the internet it wasn't much further beings that we wanted to stay near Lancaster. So we went to the Inn & Spa and when we got there we just new it was the place. The room that we got was perfect very well laid out and very clean. The best part was that the town was having a Heritage Day and at dusk they were having fireworks. Just so happens that our hot tub had these sky lights that faced in the direction the fireworks were being set off. What an anniversary with a perfect place to stay with very nice people who run the Inn and fireworks. What a perfect ending doesn't get any better than that.

It was wonderful to stay at the Inn again. I was surprised to see that they left a little gift of chocolate & a thank you for returning card. They were kind enough to make sure that my fiancee' did not get any dish that he didn't want (he doesn't eat egg dishes). They give little sheets of things that there is to do on a Sunday in the middle of Amish country where most things are closed. We had so much fun and can't wait to go back. We love our little getaways there.

Wife and I spent a long weekend here and had a very relaxing time. From the terrific day at the spa to the delicious breakfast to the wonderful suite, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and a time to re-energize. We stayed in the Thomas Suite, which is the entire top floor of the main house. Very comfortable king bed, nice sitting area, and wonderful Jacuzzi. Impeccably clean and comfortable temperature wise. The staff of the spa and inn were so kind, friendly, and helpful with restaurant suggestions. We indulged in a couples day at the spa, which included a nice private lunch, an hour massage, and pedicure. It really set the mood for our weekend of relaxing together. We would highly recommend this as a wonderful place to stay. The location is also very good, across from a "touristy" but nice Amish marketplace. It is an easy drive to all of the terrific villages of Lancaster County and to the city of Lancaster.

This is a wonderful place to have a relaxing weekend with the one you Love. My fiance and I decided to "get-away" from it all to spend some nice quite time together. Intercourse Inn and Spa was definitely the place to go! The breakfast was wonderful and they even took special requests (as I do not like cheese!!). My fiance and I woke up late on Sunday (daylight savings), we were so upset that we were missing breakfast!! Well, no need to worry because the wonderful staff at Intercourse went out of their way to accommodate us by bringing breakfast to our room! I would definitely recommend this place - and we will definitely be returning as soon as we can! Oh, and don't forget to treat yourself to a massage! You're worth it!

We were return guests to the Inn. Hospitality was fabulous! A personalized return welcome letter with chocolates for us in our room~ a very nice touch! Fresh fruit and refreshments available 24 hours was wonderful! Room was beautiful. The only thing missing is a hearty, sumputious breakfast. They offer a "6 course" breakfast with a lot to be desired. Very petite portions including a mixture of cold cereal, and a fresh baked item. The table setting is beautiful. The food is just missing. If they corrected this, we wouldn't be able to stay away! Suggestions would be omlettes, stuffed french toast, pecan pancakes, breakfast meats~all served family style with a basket of fresh muffins/croissants and homemade jellies on each table!

My husband and I visited the Inn and Spa at Intercourse Village as our first night away since having our son 10 months ago. It was also the perfect excuse to use the bed and breakfast gift card that we received at our wedding nearly three years ago. The room was very nice, the staff friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed massages and pedicures at the spa. Our only small disappointment (which was in no way the fault of the inn) was that most of the small shops were closed late Saturday afternoon and on Sunday.

My DH & I loved this Inn. We went here to relax and unwind after some stressfull times at home. The Innkeepers were very nice. When we arrived we were greeted by a nice young lady who showed us around the main building which was Beautiful. Explained how things worked at the Inn and showed us to our Suite. We stayed in The Beiler Suite. It had a sitting room with a fireplace & kitchenette. The bedroom had a Queen size bed. It also had a private bath with tub. The Inn was nice and quiet due to the time of year. It was right in the center of town. Across the street from The Kitchen Kettle Villiage. We would most definitly stay here again.

My boyfriend and I spent a weekend here in January, and booked a spa package as well. The entire experience was lovely. I recommend staying in winter because the rooms have fireplaces and steam showers, and the view of the snow with the horse and buggies outside our window was great. There is a great shopping area across the street and many nice restaurants within a short drive. The five course candlelit breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend for a romantic getaway complete with spa services and relatively affordable.

This B&B was chosen as a last minute trip by my girlfriend and I. The stay was Christmas night. Upon arriving, the first thing you notice is the beauty of the grounds. Upon exiting the car, we heard the clip-clop of the Amish buggies on the road, heard classical music thru speakers on the grounds, and noticed the quaint look of the buildings. Since it was Christmas night, no employees were attending the office, but our welcome packet was nicely placed on a table by the door. The packet had information on everything we could possibly need. We entered the room and the first things you notice are the incredible country decorations and the cleanliness of the room. I mean this room was IMMACULATE. The bedding was comfortable as I have ever had in a place outside of my own house. My girlfriend and I simply use the word stunning for how we feel about this place. After a great romantic night, we woke relaxed in such a quiet place. We had breakfast scheduled in the main building at 8:30AM. The breakfast did not disappoint. 5 courses, all thoroughly enjoyable. The attention given by the staff was top notch. Everything was thought of and taken care of. One great thing is that I have some specific preferences on food, and The Inn makes sure that these preferences are on file for when you return. And believe me, you will want to return. Do not pass up an opportunity to experience this inn. My girlfriend and I will return, as it is "our place" now. We plan on celebrating special dates in our relationship right here.

We originally reserved the Victorian room, but we felt we rented the whole 2-story house because no one else was there until the evening on 12/25 (How lucky we are!!!). The house was really cute and pretty-! :) The fireplace and all the pretty Victorian style ornaments~! The Victorian room was smaller than I had expected, but it was very cozy and romantic. Plus, the breakfast served on the morning of 12/16 was pretty good-!

For the first time in many years my wife and I splurged on a romantic weekend get-away at the Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village and we loved every minute we were there. We had a massage when we first arrived and then went back to our room for some quality time in the heart shaped tub, lit only by the fireplace in the bedroom. In the morning our five-course breakfast was beyond amazing and we talked with a couple from Australia as we ate. Afterwards we waddled back to our room and fell into bed again. Our hosts were amazingly attentive and gave us anything we asked for. The Inn gave me and my wife an exhausting and thoroughly enjoyable weekend that we will always cherish.

My husband and I stayed here for our one year anniversary. We only stayed for one night but, we wished we could have stayed a couple more nights. The rooms are in a beautiful county setting and it's in the heart of intercourse. Kitchen Kettle Village is a great place to shop and the outlets are not too far away either. We had the option of having our breakfast brought out to us, which we did, and the breakfast was amazing. When we got there, they gave us a packet of things to do and dining suggestions. They highly suggested the Olde Greenfield Inn, we do too. It's fine/ casual dining and the food was spectacular. I definitely recommend staying at the Inn and Spa at Intercourse Village.

Just returned from a overnight stay at The Inn & Spa at Intercourse Villiage in PA. My husband and I have not had a relaxing weekend/getaway in a long time. I made the reservations based on the internet site. I can honestly say it is the same as the pictures displayed. We were checked in, given a tour, given some history of the property, but most of all we felt welcomed. They combine the warm and fuzzy feeling along with professionalism. The property sits back off of Rt. 30 which makes the property quiet. The grounds are very well kept and there is a gazebo at the back of the property. They have a candelite breakfast, however if you ask they will bring up a tray in the morning to you by 9:15 am. on a case by case basis. The property is centrally located to shopping that you can walk to however keep in mind on Sundays a lot of the shops are closed. They give you a booklet when you register with Sunday ideas of things to do and where to eat. All and All we will be going back, again and again. We recommend this INN mainly because we had a WOW experience. Joanne and Bill / Delaware County residence.

If you want to spend the night at a romantic getaway, the Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village is the place to be. The setting is gorgeous, the staff is VERY friendly, breakfast is outstanding and the location in the middle of town is perfect to do all your shopping. We will be back!

We stayed in the Leaman room which is in the house facing the road. At 5:30am the traffic was a bit loud. Had to turn the air conditioning back on just get some white noise to help drown out the traffic. That was the only negative experience of our stay. Looking forward to our next stay there.

My husband and I spent one night here for our anniversary. The place was immaculate and beautiful as well as the staff being very friendly. They left a bottle of sparkling juice in our room which was a surprise. The atmosphere was very quiet and there was also lots of store shopping within walking distance. We are already discussing when we can make it back there to stay again and hopefully for a longer weekend. Oh I forgot to mentino that we even had breakfast delivered to our room in the morning since we did not wish to eat in the dining room (in the main house). It was a very good. I'd recommend this place to everyone.

My wife and I stayed in the Grand Suite for our anniversary in February. It was a fantastic experience. The room was very nice. We also used the spa which was also very good. We were extremely happy with our experience in this quaint little town in Lancaster County.

My husband and I visited here for a two-day anniversary trip. The Inn was everything we had hoped it to be. We had never stayed at a Bed and Breakfast before and we were extremely impressed with this inn.Our Victorian room made us feel as if we had stepped back in time(with the comfort of central air and tv). The five course breakfast was an experience all in itself. We made a visit to the spa and throughly enjoyed it. Thanks to the wonderful experience at this inn, my husband and I plan to check out other bed and breakfast inns. And of course should we ever find ourselves back here, we will be staying at the Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village.

Bradford, Rams hand Texans 4th straight loss 38-13Sunday, 13 October 2013 18:48 Published in Sports
HOUSTON (AP) — The St. Louis Rams had a simple chant in the locker room after Sunday's 38-13 rout of the Houston Texans.
'2-and-0, 2-and-0,' coach Jeff Fisher said his team repeated.
Sam Bradford threw three touchdown passes, St. Louis added a score on defense and special teams and the Rams stunned the mistake-prone Texans with a 38-13 win on Sunday to win their second straight after dropping their previous three games.
"I think everyone totally bought in," Bradford said of the turnaround. "I think if you look at the way we've played the past two weeks; it's been a completely different mindset, a completely different attitude."
The Rams (3-3) were up 24-6 early in the third quarter before rookie Daren Bates returned Keshawn Martin's fumble on a kickoff return for a touchdown.
Rookie first-round pick Alec Ogletree pushed the lead to 38-6 when he took an interception by T.J. Yates back 98 yards for a touchdown. Yates was in after Schaub sustained an apparent right ankle injury.
Coach Gary Kubiak didn't have many details on Schaub's injury after the game, saying only: "Matt's got a little bit of everything on that one leg."
Schaub didn't have a turnover after throwing six interceptions, three of them returned for touchdowns in the past three games.
But several other Texans had key gaffes as preseason Super Bowl hopeful Houston (2-4) lost its fourth straight game.
"For the past few weeks the finger has been pointed in one direction a lot," Kubiak said. "But we sprung leaks all over the place today."
The Texans had 95 yards of penalties, lost two fumbles and Yates threw two interceptions. Schaub had 186 yards passing and Yates finished with 98 yards passing.
"We played our absolute worst football the last two weeks and we've got to change it," Houston safety Ed Reed said.
Bradford was 12 of 16 for 117 yards. Rookie Zac Stacy had 18 carries for 79 yards in his second straight start.
"To come out here and play a pretty much complete game was fun," St. Louis defensive end Chris Long said. "Offense and defense were in complete sync."
Brian Quick's 4-yard touchdown reception extended the Rams' lead to 24-6 early in the third quarter.
Rodney McLeod forced the fumble by Martin on the ensuing kickoff and Bates, an undrafted free agent, scooped it up and returned it 11 yards, diving into the end zone for the score.
Schaub was injured on Houston's next drive when he was sacked by Chris Long. Some fans cheered while he was down after the injury, angering Houston's players.
"For them to cheer about something like that, it just shows they have no class," Andre Johnson said.
He was replaced by Yates. Schaub had thrown an interception that was returned for a touchdown in four straight games entering Sunday.
Yates made it five in a row for Houston when his first drive ended with the interception return by Ogletree, who high-stepped his way into the end zone as the home fans serenaded the Texans with boos.
The Rams took a 7-0 lead in the first quarter when Cory Harkey grabbed a 2-yard touchdown pass from Bradford. Kareem Jackson received a 40-yard penalty for pass interference early in that drive.
The Texans were driving later in the first when Ogletree forced a fumble by rookie DeAndre Hopkins which James Laurinaitis recovered and returned it 43 yards.
The Rams capitalized on the fumble with a 42-yard field goal by Greg Zuerlein to push the lead to 10-0 early in the second quarter.
Houston cut the lead to 10-3 with a 20-yard field goal by Randy Bullock.
Another 2-yard pass by Bradford — this one to Lance Kendricks — extended the lead to 17-3. An unnecessary roughness penalty on Brian Cushing for a late hit on Bradford helped that drive.
Houston settled for another field goal just before halftime when Schaub's pass on third down fell incomplete to make it 17-6 at halftime.
About the only highlight for Houston on Sunday was the play of Arian Foster, who finished with 20 carries for 141 yards. He added four catches for 57 yards.
Ben Tate scored Houston's only touchdown on a 1-yard run in the fourth quarter.
NOTES: Martin has an injured shoulder. ... Houston S Danieal Manning has a right knee injury, but Kubiak didn't know how severe it was after the game. ... Janoris Jenkins had an interception for the Rams.
Backes' 2 goals lead Blues over slumping RangersSaturday, 12 October 2013 22:08 Published in Sports
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- David Backes scored twice, and the unbeaten St. Louis Blues beat the slumping New York Rangers 5-3 on Saturday night.
The Blues, who haven't trailed at all this season, are 4-0 for the first time in franchise history.
Derek Roy, Alexander Steen and Vladimir Tarasenko added goals for St. Louis, which has outscored its opponents 19-7. Jaroslav Halak made 26 saves to improve to 4-0.
Ryan Callahan scored twice for the Rangers (1-4), and Brad Richards added his team-leading fourth goal. New York, which has four games left on a season-opening, nine-game trip, has lost three in a row by a combined score of 20-5.
St. Louis scored four times on its first 17 shots against backup goalie Martin Biron, who was making his first start of the season. Biron was pulled after the second period in favor of regular netminder Henrik Lundqvist.
Biron stopped 13 of 17 shots. Lundqvist allowed one goal on 17 shots.
The Blues won their first three games in 1969 and 1993, but had never won four in a row to start a season in their 47-year history.
Backes, who scored just six goals last season in the lockout-shortened campaign, already has four this season. He didn't notch his fourth last season until the Blues' 35th game.
Backes put St. Louis ahead 2-1 by beating Biron with a wrist shot at 5:11 of the second period. He pushed the lead to 4-2 later in the frame off a pass from T.J. Oshie.
Steen added three assists giving him a team-leading eight points - including four goals.
New York tied it 1-1 on Callahan's first of the season, but trailed the rest of the way after Backes scored his first. The Rangers' goal came during a 5-on-3 power play with 5.8 seconds left in the first period.
Callahan closed the gap to 4-3 with a power-play goal at 2:54 of the third. Tarasenko restored the Blues' two-goal lead with a power-play goal midway through the period.
NOTES: St. Louis is 27-6-5 against the Eastern Conference since the start of the 2010-11 season. ... Rangers LW Rick Nash missed his second consecutive game because of a head injury sustained Tuesday on a hit by San Jose's Brad Stuart. Stuart was suspended three games by the NHL. ... Lundqvist has beaten every NHL team except St. Louis. ... The Blues allowed their first third-period goal of the season. ... St. Louis is starting the season with five straight home games for the second time in team history.
Wacha, Cardinals edge Dodgers for 2-0 lead in NLCSSaturday, 12 October 2013 21:09 Published in Sports
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Matched against ace Clayton Kershaw, the only thing Michael Wacha lacked was a no-hit watch.
"He's becoming a guy a lot of teams wish they drafted," teammate David Freese said. "What he's done is remarkable, especially on this stage."
Wacha stared down a bases-loaded test in the sixth inning and pitched into the seventh, and the kids in the bullpen also were impervious to October pressure, keeping the Los Angeles Dodgers bats silent for the second straight day and winning 1-0 Saturday for a 2-0 lead in the NL championship series.
"I'm kind of at a loss for words to describe him," said fellow rookie Kevin Siegrist, who got a big out to end the seventh. "It's kind of ridiculous how well he's done so far."
The Cardinals managed only two hits off Kershaw and the Dodgers, but Jon Jay's sacrifice fly set up by Freese's double and A.J. Ellis' passed ball in the fifth stood up.
The Dodgers' scoreless streak in the NLCS reached 19 innings after they averaged 6 1/2 runs in a four-game division series against Atlanta. Rookie fireballer Trevor Rosenthal struck out the side in the ninth with a heater reaching 101 mph, fanning pinch-hitter Andre Ethier on three pitches to end it.
A day after outlasting Los Angeles 3-2 in 13 innings, the Cardinals moved two wins away from the World Series.
Game 3 is Monday at Dodger Stadium, with Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright facing rookie Hyun-Jin Ryu. The Dodgers have already used their top two starters and have nothing to show for it.
"We don't get too far ahead of ourselves," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "We don't deny also what's happened here the last two days.
"Those were two very good wins, two very tough wins when you face starters like that."
Hanley Ramirez and Ethier were out of the Dodgers' lineup with injuries after starting in the opener. Los Angeles missed a handful of opportunities, going 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position for a two-day total of 1 for 16. Star rookie Yasiel Puig struck out in all four of his at-bats.
"We had our chances," Kershaw said. "We had our chances, for sure. You've got to give a lot of credit to Wacha."
The teams may have been hindered by shadows creeping across Busch Stadium in a late-afternoon start, with lights providing no real help. Both also were no doubt fatigued, which might have shown on the crucial passed ball by Ellis that wound up resulting in an unearned run.
Wacha was nearly untouchable for the third straight start, allowing five hits with eight strikeouts and a walk in 6 2-3 innings.
The 22-year-old right-hander was one out away from a no-hitter in his last start of the regular season, losing it on an infield hit by Washington's Ryan Zimmerman. Wacha ignored a crowd chanting his name in Game 4 of the division series at Pittsburgh, holding the Pirates hitless for 7 1-3 innings to bring the series back home.
In 22 2-3 innings in his last three starts, Wacha has given up two runs on seven hits with 26 strikeouts and five walks.
The 6-6 Wacha struck out Puig and Juan Uribe with the bases loaded to end the sixth. Catcher Yadier Molina helped by making a couple trips to the mound.
"That was a game-changer right there," Molina said. "To get out of that inning was unbelievable."
Kershaw led off with a single, and runners were on second and third after second baseman Matt Carpenter slid in shallow right to glove Carl Crawford's infield hit but threw it away for an error trying to get a forceout at second.
Adrian Gonzalez was walked intentionally to load the bases and the Dodgers 4-5 hitters coming up. Puig struck out on a fastball in the dirt and Uribe had a feeble cut chasing a 1-2 pitch out of the zone.
Carpenter tripled on Kershaw's first pitch of the game but didn't budge when the lefty retired the next three on nine pitches.
The Cardinals had another runner at third with nobody out in the fifth after Freese doubled and advanced on a passed ball by Ellis, This time they converted on Jay's sacrifice fly to shallow left as Crawford's throw was well offline.
The previous pitch the Cardinals tried to squeeze in a run with the Dodgers infield playing in, but Jay fouled off a 1-1 pitch.
Kershaw worked six snappy innings, needing just 72 pitches. He gave up two hits and struck out five.
The majors' ERA leader had plenty left, too, but the Dodgers needed runs and manager Don Mattingly opted for pinch-hitter Michael Young after Nick Punto's two-out single in the seventh.
"I always want to stay in the game, but I understand where Donnie's coming from," Kershaw said. "I get it. We can't give up any more outs and Michael Young is one of the best players the last 10 years."
The Cardinals lifted Wacha for another stingy rookie. Siegrist, who had a minuscule 0.45 ERA in his debut season, threw a pair of wild pitches before getting Young on a flyout to end the seventh.
Relievers Randy Choate and Carlos Martinez pitched the eighth for St. Louis before turning it over to Rosenthal.
The Cardinals handed Kershaw two of his nine losses this season and have beaten him four consecutive times overall.
NOTES: SS Ramirez was a late scratch with sore ribs after getting plunked in the first inning of Game 1. Ethier has been slowed by a sore ankle. ... Carpenter has a hit each of the first two games after entering the NLCS in a 3 for 39 slump. ... Choate, the lone veteran reliever the Cardinals used in Game 2, has gotten two outs on four pitches in two appearances.

1825 72nd Ave SE, Mercer Island, WA | Directions 9804047.593995 -122.243163
Monday To Thursday From 11:00 AM To 10:00 PM Friday From 11:00 AM To 11:00 PM Saturday From 08:00 AM To 11:00 PM Sunday From 08:00 AM To 09:00 PM
Great place to meet men! – What a wonderful place! Plenty of well groomed young and middle aged men to look at. What they need is discrete bathhouse in the back. It's my new favorite gay hangout.
Nice watering hole – What an awesome little spot on little Mercer Island. Good menu, Drink choices and friendly service & great parking!
Local Hangout – The Roanoke is a great pub wedged into a nice, quiet Mercer Island neighborhood.
You know the neighbors have been probably trying to get this place closed down
for years, but they haven't been successful yet.
Great place for lunch on a nice summer day, good brews and food.
This quaint Inn near the island's ferry dock is a pit stop for visitors and locals alike. – The Scene
Working stiffs and millionaires stop off at this residential location for a Blue Paddle and some friendly ambiance. The Inn has been around for almost 100 years, long before Mercer Island became some of the priciest real estate in the Northwest. In early days it reportedly hosted dancing girls and prohibition-era drinking, but now it's simply a warm and friendly place, with a toasty fire going on cold nights.
The Draw
The back room lacks a bit of the main room's charm, but it's the perfect place to grab a meal in a lively, smoke-free setting.
The food ranges from Wings of Fire (which truly are) to rib-eye steaks served with baked potato. Salads, sandwiches and daily dinner specials are all on the menu but it's the Mexican food that's worth a try.
Roanoke on Sunday afternoon – This is a great spot in the summer. You can sit in either the "beer garden" or on the porch. The owners have done a great job of preserving a "taven-like" feel with a Yuppie group of customers. Service can be slow but is friendly and energetic. Are applying for a liquor permit

Abdul Salam Zaeef, barely thirty years old, was the Afghan ambassador to Pakistan just before and after the September 11th attacks. The Taliban regime he served was so isolated that Zaeef became its youthful, thickly bearded international face while American bombs were falling on Taliban lines and Northern Alliance troops swept down toward Kabul. A few weeks after the fall of Kandahar, Zaeef disappeared in Pakistan. It turned out that Pakistani intelligence had handed him over to American agents, who held him in various prisons in Afghanistan before transferring him to Guantánamo, where he endured three years of detention without charge. At the end of 2005, after agreeing to refrain from "anti-American activities or military actions," he was released and returned to Afghanistan. He now lives a quiet life in Kabul, and occasionally speaks to Western diplomats and reporters (including Steve Coll, for his piece in this week's magazine) who want a read on Taliban thinking of the moment.
Earlier this year, Columbia University Press published Zaeef's memoirs under the title "My Life with the Taliban," translated into English by two graduates of London's School of Oriental and African Studies, who somehow manage to survive as foreigners living in Kandahar. It's a book with an obvious interest for Americans, since so little has been published in English from the point of view of the insurgents who are the reason a hundred thousand American troops are fighting in Afghanistan. There's no easily available Taliban equivalent of the writings of Ho Chi Minh, let alone "Mein Kampf." Zaeef's memoir is perhaps the best, and maybe even the only, way for readers here to begin to grasp the world view of this xenophobic and opaque movement.
In one way, it's also a book that American readers will immediately understand: a kind of Pashtun Horatio Alger story, about a poor village boy from southern Afghanistan, the son of a holy man, who suffers deprivations, studies hard, survives the calamities of exile and war, develops intense loyalties with his brothers in arms, and, through perseverance and intelligence, rises early and fast through his country's government to positions of great importance (which he claims never to have wanted), before suffering more calamities at the hands of his enemies—but there is no obstacle too great for Zaeef to overcome, because of his courage and unshakable piety. I've been reading the autobiographies of recent U.S. senators (a lot less absorbing than "My Life with the Taliban"), and the atmosphere is about the same. Zaeef's tale has the moral simplicity and lack of reflection of rags-to-riches literature by public men, even if this narrator ends up somewhere beneath the top of the heap.Continue Reading >>

Developing NICE clinical guidelines
This is a brief summary of how NICE develops clinical guidelines. See all clinical guidelines currently in development.
- Guideline topic is referred.
The Department of Health refers clinical guideline topics to NICE.
- Stakeholders register interest.
National organisations representing patients and carers, and also health professionals involved in their care can register as stakeholders. Stakeholders are consulted throughout the guideline development process.
Read more about stakeholder registration.
- Scope prepared.
The National Collaborating Centre (NCC) commissioned to develop the guideline prepares the scope. This document sets out what the guideline will - and will not - cover. NICE, registered stakeholders and an independent guideline review panel can all contribute to the development of the scope.
Read more about our National Collaborating Centres.
- Guideline development group established.
This group is made up of health professionals, representatives of patient and carer groups and technical experts. The group is recruited during the scoping phase: if required, one member may be recruited at the start of scoping.
Read more about guideline development groups.
- Draft guideline produced.
To produce the draft guideline, the group assesses the available evidence and makes recommendations.
- Consultation on the draft guideline.
There is at least one public consultation period for registered stakeholders to comment on the draft guideline.
- Final guideline produced.
After the guideline development group finalises the recommendations, the collaborating centre produces the final guideline.
- Guidance issued.
NICE formally approves the final guideline and issues its guidance to the NHS.
Short guideline process
Short clinical guidelines are designed specifically to address clinical questions which do not meet the topic selection criteria for a traditional clinical guideline or technology appraisal, but nevertheless require guidance to be produced by the Institute.
Short clinical guidelines are developed to the same rigorous methods as existing clinical guidelines but they are produced within a shorter 9 -11 month timescale. The criteria for their referral to NICE are the same as for topics selected for the main clinical guidelines programme, with an additional judgement about the urgency of the advice.
Rapid updates
Rapid updates are used to update discrete parts of published clinical guidelines, through a Clinical Guidelines Updates Standing Committee (pilot programme started in October 2013). The Committee develops recommendations for the NHS in accordance with NICE's published methods. Guidelines eligible for a rapid update by the standing committee are those focusing on small and very defined areas of the guideline.

ASHLAND, Ohio - No. 4-seeded Ashland University rallied from a 2-0 deficit to defeat No. 5 Northern Michigan University in five sets for a second-time in 2012, this time in the GLIAC tournament quarterfinals, 23-25, 20-25, 25-16, 25-22, 15-7, in Ohio.
During the regular season, NMU failed to convert on three match points in the fourth set in a 25-16, 20-25, 20-25, 29-27, 15-10 loss at Ashland.
The Eagles (23-7 overall) also eliminated the Wildcats (20-12) from the GLIAC semifinals last season in three sets on Ohio.
Three Wildcats finished with 10-plus kills as junior Kalli Herron had a team-high 15, junior Lina Lopes finished with 13 and freshman Lisa Studnicka had 11.
The Wildcats' blocking attack wasn't as successful, however.
NMU finished with only seven team blocks, led by senior Jasmine Calhoun's six block assists. Herron had four block assists and junior Sarah Hamilton had the lone solo block.
Senior Kalin Zimmerman finished with a team-high 23 digs and junior Kellisha Harley had 45 assists.
For Ashland, Brittany Snider had 20 kills, down from the 29 she had during the regular season against NMU. Baley Bernthisel had 15 kills for the Eagles.
