1740 House

What 1740 House does

1740 House is an independent, privately held country inn operating since 1964 along the Delaware River in Lumberville, Pennsylvania, within Bucks County approximately 5 miles from New Hope and Lambertville. The property offers 24 fully equipped guest rooms — every one with river views — configured as twin, queen, king/deluxe, and suite tiers, with complimentary breakfast included and one designated pet-friendly room. Beyond lodging, the business operates The Club @ 1740 House, a members-only private club providing bar and dinner service five nights per week (Wednesday–Sunday) for an annual household fee of $250, and hosts private events including corporate retreats, rehearsal dinners, and bridal showers.

The company's commercial stack is built on third-party platforms rather than proprietary technology: InnRoad powers online room reservations through the 1740house.com site, TableAgent handles restaurant table bookings, and direct phone/email plus dedicated inquiry forms support event bookings. Marketing runs through the company website, Facebook, Twitter, and travel review platforms (TripAdvisor, HotelsCombined), the latter having awarded a 2018 Recognition of Excellence at a 9.0 guest rating.

The revenue model combines transactional lodging (per-night double-occupancy room rates with a 50% deposit), recurring membership dues from Club households, restaurant/tavern transaction revenue, and professional-services-style event packages. The company shares a sister-property relationship with HollyHedge Estate, enabling cross-property guest access, and offers an active-getaway product in partnership with New Hope Cyclery. Operations are supported by approximately 20 employees, with no public listing, no disclosed funding, and no parent company identified in the source data.
