Joan Brown's Bed and Breakfast

Lovely clean and non invasive. So eclectic. Great food and friendly environment.

I LOVE going to Joan Brown's B&B..Very relaxed atmosphere beautiful house & grounds. Joan is an awesome hostess & cook and has a welcoming personality!!

The most beautiful historic home and a lovely owner. Everything was just perfect. Thanks Joan.

I adore Joan!I stayed here for two nights with my work team on a strategic retreat. It's a beautiful old colonial house in a gorgeous neighbourhood filled with lovely gardens, bees, deer, strolling people who smile and say hello, and within 7 minutes of downtown by car.Joan's home is full of art, keepsakes, photographs, books, cds, bedrooms and bathrooms and a large garden with a couple of seating areas for reading, chatting and just relaxing.Though my favourite place in the entire house is the kitchen - it's homey, and Joan is there :) She does most of the baking and cooking, and works hard to be as environmentally friendly as possible, which I appreciate very much.The breakfasts are beautiful and generous. Lovely fruit plate, and one morning it was eggs cooked in bell peppers and baked with cheese on a potato patty with a tomato & salsa on the side, and the next was the biggest waffle with the best bacon I have ever had along with homemade rhubarb sauce.There are no locks on the doors to the bedrooms, as someone mentioned, and it's not massive ensuite bathrooms people have become accustomed to in opulent hotels or chain suites... it's homey, interesting period rooms that attract people I feel safe and comfortable around, and Joan is always nearby.Highly recommended! Tell her I sent you!

Fabulous happy and superbly fed weekend for me and my family. Our son Ben took a photo of the breakfast table groaning with delicious food. This should be on the index page of the web site. It would attract hordes!As a hobby web page maker, I suggest that the name of the business and web site be changed to Bed and breakfast with Joan Brown" - or something like that. This would move her up alphabetically on the listings.Commendable

Booked for 7 nights but on day 3 got told by the host we had to leave due to “tiredness” and “can’t be bothered with a B&B anymore” even though she was accepting new guests… very unprofessional and unpleasant host, wouldn’t recommend to my worse enemy!

My wife, Julie, and I stayed with Joan in August (2019) and were more or less bowled over by the comfort and elegance of our accommodations in the Blue Room." The house is architecturally interesting and beautiful
