The Inn at Lewes opens in old Driftwood Motel on Route 1
The owners of the Heritage Inn near Lewes have purchased the old Driftwood Motel and reopened it under a new name: The Inn at Lewes.
Located on the same side of Route 1 as the Heritage Inn, about a quarter of a mile closer to Dartmouth Drive, the Driftwood Motel was built in 1978. Under the name Drifts RG DEV LLC, H&R Hospitality purchased the property for $2.2 million in November.
Kathy Bishop, general manager for both locations, said The Inn at Lewes has nine fully furnished studio apartments that are available for daily, weekly or monthly rentals. She said all the linens have been replaced and, at some point in the future, there could be additional renovations.
The Heritage Inn opened in 2000. At the time, the nine-hole golf course on the other side of Postal Lane was part of the operation. The golf course was sold in 2014 and became American Classic Golf Club.
