Frequently Asked Questions
On the east bank of the Hudson, about forty kilometres north of Manhattan. The village, long known as North Tarrytown, officially took back the name Sleepy Hollow in 1996.
Only partly. Philipsburg Manor is a few minutes from the landing, but the main sites are spread over several kilometres: shuttles and organised excursions make the day much easier.
Allow about an hour each for Philipsburg Manor and Sunnyside, then keep time for the Old Dutch Church and the cemetery. A detour onto Tarrytown’s main street adds cafés and antique shops.
Because of the Headless Horseman. With The Legend of Sleepy Hollow in 1820, Washington Irving fixed forever the image of this Hudson Valley hollow, with its Dutch church, mossy graveyard and autumn mists.
A colonial-era estate recreating daily life on a large Dutch farming operation: a water-powered grist mill, a barn and a whitewashed manor house. Costumed interpreters run the millstones and address head-on the history of the enslaved people who kept the estate running.
Yes, freely: 36 hectares of monuments, obelisks and mausoleums shaded by century-old maples, around the old stone Dutch church. Washington Irving rests there among New York industrialists and notables. Themed guided walks are offered in season.
Washington Irving’s house, downriver from the village: crow-stepped gables, climbing wisteria and paths running down to the river. He shaped it in his own image over the last quarter of his life, and costumed guides describe the man behind the legend, the first American author to live by his pen.
Yes, an 1883 cast-iron lighthouse, recently restored and reopened to visitors, at the foot of the village. The riverfront walkway links it to nearby parks, with views of the huge bridge spanning the Hudson at its widest point.
The US dollar and English. Credit cards are accepted everywhere and restaurant tipping runs 15 to 20 percent.
Autumn, without hesitation: the Hudson Valley is at its finest and the legend makes complete sense. In October, book early, as harvest and Halloween season draws visitors from across the region.
