Bellefonte Bed and Breakfast

Stay in Comfort and History at the Bellefonte B&B & Cottage

Welcome to the Bellefonte B&B, a cozy and comfortable place to stay in the heart of downtown historic Victorian Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. Built in 1899, this Georgian Revival brick home was originally the residence of Joseph Ceader, a local baker, caterer, and confectioner. Over the years, it’s been a doctor’s office, a family home, and now a comfortable Bed and Breakfast where guests can relax and feel right at home.

We’ve updated the space to keep its historic charm while adding the modern comforts you need for a great stay. Whether you're in town for a weekend getaway, visiting friends or family, or exploring central PA, the Bellefonte B&B is a great place to unwind and enjoy the best of small-town life.

Comfortable Rooms, Classic Style

The main house has three guest rooms, each with its own private bathroom. The rooms have been recently renovated and are designed to feel both classic and comfortable. There are also shared spaces like the living and dining areas where you can play games, read a book, watch movies, or just hang out. Step outside and you’ll find a quiet courtyard and garden area—perfect for morning coffee or an evening unwinding by the fire.

The Cottage: A Private Space with Room to Spread Out

Behind the main house is The Cottage, a separate two-bedroom guest house that's perfect for longer stays, families, or anyone who wants a little more privacy. Originally a carriage house for the Ceader home, it’s now a fully updated, cozy spot to call your own during your time in Bellefonte.

Downstairs, there’s a full kitchen stocked with cookware, dishes, a coffee maker, and basic supplies that you’ll need if you feel like cooking. There’s also a dining room, a comfy living room, and a half bath

Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a full bathroom. One bedroom has a King bed that can be split into two Twin XL beds if needed—just let us know. The second bedroom has a Queen bed. Whether you’re here with kids or just want extra space, the Cottage is a great fit.
