We had such a wonderful experience at Diane and Villard's Brazos B&B during a weekend of lovely winter weather. The land on which the B&B is situated is so nice. The rays of a sunset or the early morning sunshine is so warming, golden even, through the limbs of their live oaks. It set the tone for a relaxing weekend, which we were SO in need of! We received a warm welcome from Diane. She showed us the lay of the land, pointing out guides for the area and their personal recommendations for restaurants. The outdoor hot tub was appealing with the lovely view of garden, trees and pasture. Our private patio had a table for two to enjoy a meal. A grill is nearby, ready for use for a hamburger or steak dinner. The sitting area had very comfortable seating around the fire pit. (We enjoyed a nice fire one night and loved the clear skies with so many stars. Delightful!) Diane also showed us the cottage's special armoire. They redesigned the interior so nicely as a kitchenette with mini- fridge, microwave, coffeemaker, sink and space for a few spices. The nearby buffet stores plates, glasses, mugs, cutlery and linens, everything you might need for a grilled dinner in or snacks during the stay. The table was prepped for two with flowers, chilled wine, cheese, crackers and fruit. Diane's breakfasts are amazing! One morning we had heart-shaped pancakes, scrambled eggs, meaty bacon, fruit and yogurt. Coffee and OJ was there to accompany this splendid meal! Another morning we had delicious muffins, frittata and fruit. These meals were one of the most special parts of our visit, especially with the kindness of Diane and Villard bringing the breakfast to our room on a lovely tray with flowers. Very special! We enjoyed having access to the Olympics during our weekend as well as having Apple TV so that we could AirPlay a morning workout. Additional exercise is available with hikes around the property. We slept so well on the comfortable bed, with special copper pillows. The cottage has a very large bathroom. It contains a separate WC, walk-in shower, double sinks and large jacuzzi tub. The hosts have thought of everything! Lastly, not only did the hosts think of everything, but they ask what we would like as far as seasoning on food, and what improvements we might suggest. It's rare to have such thoughtful care. What a blessing they have given us and I'm sure they extend the same to all who visit. We want very much hope to have a repeat visit!!!
