“Bay Area Coastal Visit - The Pittman's”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 21, 2013

What an absolutely wonderful place to stay, relax and and enjoy the majestic pacific coastline. Rick and Kathy were terrific hosts and provided invaluable tips of historic places and restaurants to visit. If you're ever in the mood for a getaway back in time when life was simple, please consider Old Thyme Inn. You won't be disappointed.

“Chamomile Queen”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 12, 2013

What a cozy place.
In 8 weeks of travel it was the best claw bathtub setting ever!
The chamomile room warm yellow walls, a butterfly window and a sky light over the tub created a place of peace all the way to the shell that scoops the bath salts.
The grapefruit at breakfast baked 2 perfection simply divine.
Only thing to be aware of is when it rains the ants make their way into the room.
Thank you!

“Warm and inviting”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 6, 2013

I called from the airport for a reservation and Kathy was vary helpful and accomodating. When I arrived she showed me around like she was showing a house guest her home. She helped me with my heavy luggage up the stairs. The room was so sweet and comfortable and the breakfast was divine. I will come back again.

Room Tip: For a single person or young couple on a budget the Chamomile room is great. Claw foot tub can be v...

“Lovely time at Old Thyme Inn B & B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 3, 2012

Five family members gathered for my son's wedding in Half Moon Bay. We opted for this B & B because of the inviting website, homey decor. We were MORE than happy with our choice. Rick is an excellent host, Kathy's paintings added to the warmth of the home. Food is delicious and plentiful. Staff kept everything going. Rick provides many suggestions and has a command of local information. For our extended family, this is a relaxing and intimate time together to celebrate a super couple's marriage.

Room Tip: Book early!

“What a delight!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 5, 2012 via mobile

We stayed in the Garden Room for an overnight and were charmed! The room was cozy and comfortable - the Grand Marnier french toast breakfast delivered to our room was fabulous and the bed was wonderfully comfy with very nice linens. It was a delightful stay and we will be back.
