Location & Getting There
Loch Aerie Mansion sits at 700 Lancaster Pike in Malvern, Pennsylvania, only a 30-minute drive outside Philadelphia in scenic Chester County on the Main Line. That location is a genuine advantage for a wedding weekend, since guests coming from across the Main Line and the Philadelphia metro have an easy drive, and Philadelphia International Airport is within reach for anyone flying in, while Malvern and nearby Philadelphia offer abundant hotels, restaurants, and attractions for out-of-town guests. The Main Line setting keeps everything convenient and easy to plan around. Yet the mansion’s 1865 Gothic Revival architecture and garden grounds give the property a private, elegant, historic feel once you arrive, a blissful retreat away from the buzz of the city. That combination of a historic, elegant mansion with a convenient Malvern location near Philadelphia is a big part of what draws couples to Loch Aerie Mansion.
