Eva and Filip are wonderful hosts. I had a weekend event and they did everything possible to accommodate all of my guests. The rooms are comfy and decorated tastefully. Breakfast is delicious and served by Eva. They also have The Red Onion restaurant on the Peninsula. Wonderful food also.

The house and grounds are beautiful--a historic inn, family run. We enjoyed passing the afternoon sitting under the old apple tree. We only wish so many people hadn't stayed away from because of the fire in the area. The town and the inn deserved more guests.

Excellent breakfasts every morning and delightful owners and staff. Wonderful extra touches...sherry...cookies...morning coffee...would absolutely stay here again. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
Susan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a traditional BnB in a homey setting on green and pleasant grounds. The building is an old hotel with a rear two story wing of rooms. Our room, the Rose Room , was airy and spacious. The breakfast was served either inside or outside on patio tables. It was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend Bidwell House.
Larry W, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The host and staff are welcoming, the Inn comfortable and classic, the grounds beautiful--and the little touches, from the wine/beer cooler to the cookie jar to the home cooked breakfasts--are all lovely.
