The Shelburne Country Inn is a true American classic B&B
and Pub. Its location in the small town of Seaview on the Long
Beach Peninsula in the Pacific Northwest has a timeless
appeal.
Originally established in 1896 as a retreat for visitors
from Portland, Oregon, this turn-of-the-century Inn has
operated continuously since that time.
A relaxing retreat for city dwellers and a sublime sanctuary
for nature lovers, this Washington State bed and breakfast
hotel offers a welcome escape for those in search of beauty
and tranquility. Before you retire your room, cozy up to the
fireplace. You can also relax on the porch or explore the
Shelburne's English side garden. Admire the Art Nouveau
stained glass windows, which date back to the late 1800's. You
might want to browse through the Inn's gift shop, which
features the pottery of host David Campiche.
Choose from 15 thoughtfully appointed, antique-furnished
guest rooms, each with a private bath and most with a private
deck or balcony. Each lodging accommodation is individually
decorated to reflect its own personality, whether it be
furnished in fine period antiques or appointed with whimsical
wicker or brass. Special touches such as freshly cut flowers
are placed in every room, and freshly baked cookies await each
new arrival. Conveniences such as data ports and hairdryers
are in each room as well. For that something extra, take
advantage of the romance package available, which includes a
bottle of champagne and a Northwestern appetizer for two -- a
touching reward to a special occasion.
Guests delight in all of the dining experiences offered at
the inn. The Innkeepers' gourmet breakfast is complimentary to
inn guests. Enjoy entrees such as frittatas with salmon caviar
and local wild mushrooms or porcini steaks with herb scrambled
eggs. You can also dine at the nationally acclaimed Shoalwater
Restaurant with its award-winning wine cellar, as well as at
the well-stocked, more casual Heron and Beaver Pub and Cafe,
both located right on the premises.
At The Shelburne Inn, travelers have found warm hospitality,
wonderful food, and comfortable shelter for over a century.

Situated between the Columbia River and the Pacific Ocean on
the Long Beach Peninsula, The Shelburne Inn is surrounded by
stunning scenery just minutes away. The peninsula is known for
its 28 miles of sandy beach, festivals, oyster farming,
cranberry growing, and recreation. Browsing the many antique
shops, bookstores, galleries, and second-hand places in the
Peninsula villages can net some very special finds, or take a
walk on the beach for a moment of quiet contemplation. Outdoor
activities in the area include clamming (in season),
picnicking, surf fishing, golf, boating, deep sea fishing,
horseback riding on the beach, hiking, wild mushroom hunting,
kayaking, and birdwatching. |
