I am so delighted that the current members of the board are working diligently to restore this beautiful mansion and the farm managers residence. I have family ties to this wonderful historic property from approx 1921 thru 1952, at which time when New Bolton Center was developed in Southern Chester County. Both my grandfather and father served as the farm manager in Bucks County. My grandfather died suddenly in 1951, and thats when my father took over as farm manager. My father continued as farm manager at New Bolton Center until his retirement after 50+ years with the University of Pennsylvania.
We did a tour with the boy scouts and loved the tour! The house had a lot of rooms, and examples of how they cooked, dishes they used. It was a great trip, 10 minutes away!
Love the events they hosted. Very friendly and great atmosphere!
Want to see beauty? Want a nice time to see some beatiful items? Visit Bolten Mansion. I trip worth the time.
An historic colonial home under ongoing restoration by a dedicated group. I love seeing history kept alive as opposed to being knocked down to make way for yet another strip mall or convenience shop. It is happening here with programs and activities occurring to raise money for restoration efforts, whilst also educating participants on what daily life was like back then! Check in with them often and find an enjoyable event to partake in! Then watch as the house continues its gradual rebirth!
Great food truck festival today!!
Always a great event at the Bolton mansion!
Because of its rich history.
Bolton Mansion is still so full of life thanks to the Friends of Bolton Mansion and those who participate in the events held almost weekly. There are historical reenactments, ghost hunts, a haunted attraction for the Halloween season, food truck days, and other fun events. Very family-friendly.
They did an awesome job for the first year. Hopefully many more to come. The haunted woods.
Awesome family day
Great day! Big thanks to everyone who took the time to show off their amazing vehicles.
This historic mansion built when america was young has survived several centuries and continues to do so. It is surrounded by levittown homes and sits on several acres. It is always under reconstruction due to its neglect over the years due to a fire and other problems. It maybe haunted and several times a year they hold fundraisers to try and restore it to its original state. Also check out the bolton cemetary which is off levittown parkway!
People were very friendly and cheep had fun with the kids
Went for the touch a truck event thought there would be more food trucks and vehicles but was a cute event
Very nice they keep this house,but the people running it are not very friendly
Nice piece of history the tour is nice but they were redoing some so we couldnt see the whole house
Great place to see
Had a great time. Something for everyone one.
Nice venue only complaint is there is one restroom during their events.
Historic property, always hosting public events, nice place to visit
Great events for the when family including fur babies
Its charming, historical and magically spirited
I used to go here all the time with my cousins but it was all boarded up. We used to sneak inside when no one was looking and scare each other. I live in the South West now and haven’t seen it since they fixed it up. The pictures are beautiful!! Next time I’m out for a visit I’ll have to stop by the place.
What a great opportunity to take a walk back in history. The people that have given their time, energy and resources to open this beautiful old home to the public need to be commended. It’s well worth the trip
Good food truck event loved the vendors
They had a haunted tour festival. Food trucks were great. Vendors outside were amazing. Unfortunately they didnt have any tickets for the ghost tour. Kids were disappointed! If they do this again, buy tickets ahead of time.
Interesting history, hope to see it again when its complete.
Historical place that is being renovated
Another great food truck and vendor event!
Was passing to pick up a family member when I realized it was Bolton mansion I was impressed
Awesome
Didnt see any porta potties at food truck event.
I really dont see what all the hub bub is about! Its nice for prom photos though of you want that look in the background.
Very nice event..building still needs improvement
Always good fun at the mansion
Went for the food truck festival, which wasnt worth it. The prices of the food was very expensive. Didnt see the mansion, but the grounds were nice and well kept. Will update once I get to see the inside of the mansion.
Haunted House was fun
I pretty much grew up near the Bolton Mansion as my grandmother lives on the corner. The best sledding hill around.The Friends Of The Bolton Mansion have done a wonderful job of preserving and maintaining the historic property.
Great food truck turn out
Dancing in the rain..looking at ravens in a window..pleasant & polite caretakers
This place is so cool we saw some ghosts
The 330th anniversary event the friends at the Bolton Mansion recently held was a nice time with lots of local vendors and fun for the kids. Bolton Mansion is a beautiful historic building.
It is very fun when there are festivals. I liied the food truck festival
Beautiful time spent here all throughout the year. Worth checking out when events are happening
Beautiful grounds...Wonderful ground keepers
Great piece of history!
Very nice building, dont stare at it for too long, always gives me the creeps!
Mansion is a work in progress, but definitely worth preserving.
We go for the sledding. Having a historic mansion is pretty sweet too.
Beautiful historic home to visit around holidays with a long history.
My parents lived by the mansion for years. Always nice walking down the street seeing a bit of history
