This month we had a chance to visit Texas Wine Country and stayed in Fredricksburg, TX. We were celebrating my parents 40th anniversary and the family chose to stay at a bed and breakfast that offered an entire house for our accommodations. The Hoffman Haus is divided up into individual buildings and rooms and our place was an actual full sized farmhouse.
The farmhouse is equipped with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, dining room and a living room. There were six of us staying there for the weekend and it was very comfortable. Here are a few shots of the house and decor!
This is the living room. The front door opens directly into this room.
The door way to the left of the fireplace above leads into the dining room, pictured below.
To the left of the table in the dining room, there are built-in shelves, what a great idea for almost any room! The door in between the shelves leads to the master bedroom.
Beyond the dining room is the kitchen. It was very simple with the same creamy color scheme.
The door to the stairway is actually in the dining room (right next to the living room)
The stairs lead to this spacious landing which is setup with a desk and two chairs for lounging.
This is one of the three bedrooms (the one we slept in, my brother + sister in law and my sister + brother in law slept in the other two bedrooms). Two bedrooms were upstairs and one, the master (with bathroom) was downstairs.
The decor was simple and rustic, which definitely suited the style of the house. Of course, it was a bed & breakfast so breakfast was served in the mornings. The difference here is that we didn’t have to go to a common dining room. Breakfast was served in adorable picnic baskets right in our home.
The grounds were lovely and we had a very nice visit.
Have you stayed at a bed & breakfast? Do you have a favorite?

Thanks for posting — I love this style — clean and simple
Aw, I’m glad!
I’ve never stayed at a B&B, but it looks like it was fun, especially to do it with family. Congrats to your parents!
Beautiful…
Thanks for sharing! I live in Houston and my husband and I like to drive up to that area once a year, sometimes twice. We’ll be in Austin for the 4th and in wine country in September to help bottle at Garrison Brothers and I was looking for a cute B&B to stay at. 🙂
Oh that’s great! Glad it helped.
I HAVE to ask since we’ve been burned in a number of B & B’s. I am taking our whole family too but for four days. How were the actual accommodations in The Farmhouse? Beds comfortable or as old as the home? The water got hot? There was actual water pressure? The AC/Heat worked in all the rooms. I really want to stay near the rest of the wedding party so I hope you can help me – my hubby wants to stay at the Holiday Inn. (ARGH!!
I slept in the king bedroom on the 2nd floor and the bed was comfy. The furnishings look relatively new. The shower upstairs is SMALL. My husband is 6’4″ and found the shower to be tiny, but the water was hot and the pressure was just fine. We were there in April and did not need heat, but the a/c system worked well. My husband did not like the breakfast, but I did. I avoid wheat derived flour and they accommodated me with gluten free items. One day was eggs florentine and he does not really like eggs in any other style than scrambled. The farmhouse was very nice and perfect for a family. Hope that helps!
