The Inn at Grace Winery

History
The Inn at Grace Winery occupies Sweetwater Farm at 50 Sweetwater Road in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, on land the founding family originally acquired from William Penn. According to local lore the estate was occupied for two days by British troops during the Revolutionary War, and the farm passed through many hands before being converted into the Sweetwater Farm bed-and-breakfast.
Grace Le Vine purchased the property in 1996, and after her death her brother Chris Le Vine and his wife restored the inn, revived the old malting barn and planted vineyards producing wine under the Grace Vineyard label. By 2015 the whole enterprise had been rebranded as The Inn at Grace Winery, uniting historic country lodging with an on-site working vineyard.
