This is the best bed and breakfast we've ever stayed. Joseph and Walter are excellent hosts and the property is absolutely beautiful. Bellingham is a very quaint medium sized town with lots to do. Very relaxing!

The garden inn is a beautiful serene setting. We stayed in the Japanese Garden Suite and all was perfect. We did make the mistake of not planning our visit to be able to stay for breakfast (definitely will be more leisurely on our next stay). The room was quiet, well equipped and very comfortable. It was still winter but could tell that gardens will be amazing in the spring/summer.

This little garden retreat was a marvellous place to stay. The host was a kind friendly man who went out of his way to make us feel at home. The morning breakfast was the perfect thing to start the day. Housemade jams, “seasoned just right” biscuits, egg bites and the best coffee yet. The accommodation was a visual treat, the garden area a peaceful setting. We can imagine no better place to stay.

So much better than staying at a hotel! Our stay was wonderful and the hosts were fantastic. The room was clean, comfortable and much larger and nicer than any hotel at the same price point. Lovely garden to walk around with a park a short walk away. Pet friendly with two loving dogs and a cat if you can not travel with your pets. We will not hesitate to return in the future.
