The Bell House Bed and Breakfast, open year round,  is located in Columbia County, New York, in the historic Hudson Valley.  At the tri-corner of New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut, it is close to all Berkshire attractions.  

Situated in the beautiful Taconic Mountains, The Bell House is a gracious 19th century inn built in 1830 by the Bell family who resided there for generations.  Set on four acres and carefully restored in recent times, the inn offers guests a rural setting of picturesque charm.  Warm and inviting, the house has comfortable rooms furnished with antiques, as well as all modern  amenities.

Overlooking beautiful perennial gardens, mature plantings and stately trees, guests can enjoy the swimming pool on a hot summer day or relax on the covered wrap-around porch or the brick terrace overlooking the garden.  One can stroll to town, or walk or bicycle on nearby lanes or browse through Red Fox Antiques located on the grounds.

Bask in the warmth of the fireplace, curl up with a book, play the piano or listen to music on a cool autumn or winter night in the comfortable living room or library.  Choose from five lovely bedrooms, tastefully decorated with antiques, with private bathrooms and jacuzzi.  
Hike at Bash Bish Falls, Mt. Washington and Taconic State Park, and enjoy other outdoor activities, such as biking on the Harlem Rail Trail, hiking on Monument Mountain, horseback riding at nearby stables, and golfing at many golf courses in the area. Enjoy the New York and Massachusetts winter skiing at Catamount, Butternut and Jiminy Peak, both downhill and cross-country. 
Cultural attractions throughout the year include: Tanglewood Music Festival, The Berkshire Choral Festival, Shakespeare & Co. Theatre, Jacob's Pillow, Norman Rockwell Museum, Three Shaker Villages, Olana, home of Frederick Church, The Berkshire Theater Festival, or spend the day searching for antiques, a favorite pastime in the Berkshires.  Located on premises is Red Fox Antiques, noted for fine Americana.
