The Shelburne Country Inn is a true
American classic B&B, Restaurant & 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 patio or
explore the Shelburne's English 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 free wireless internet and hairdryers are in each room
as well.
Guests delight in all of the dining
experiences offered at the inn. The Innkeepers' full 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 Shelburne Restaurant with its extensive wine list, as well
as at the well-stocked, more casual English Style Pub and
Cafe, both located right on the premises serving lunch and
dinner every day. |
Situated between the Columbia River and the
Pacific Ocean on the Long Beach Peninsula, The Shelburne Inn

peninsula is known for its 28 miles of sandy beach, festivals,
oyster farming, cranberry growing, and recreation. Browsing

fishing, horseback riding on the beach, hiking, wild mushroom
hunting, kayaking, and birdwatching.
