This is a wonderful "bed and breakfast" in the little town of Monticello (close to Tallahassee). The owners are very welcoming, the room was fabulous (with full bath and comfy robe!). The breakfast was delicious and cooked to order. The property is absolutely stunning with dozens of camellias and gorgeous landscaping. Ample parking. And if you like collectibles of all types, you MUST stay here!! This is a "highly recommend!!"

My husband treated me a night at The Daffodale House for my birthday. We enjoyed our stay! Cathy is a great chef and hostess and Scotty was entertaining with ghost stories and conversations The vintage feel of the house gives to the stories their ambiance. I highly recommend this haunted getaway.

Cathy and Scott are so welcoming, accommodating and fun. The hospitality cannot be beat. Cathy’s cooking is gourmet- from scratch ravioli, perfectly seasoned Mahi Mahi, homemade herb bread, decent wine selection, plus a free decadent dessert. Cathy cooked a delicious breakfast too, with eggs made to your liking-a perfect over easy for me! In some older BnBs you sacrifice modern comforts, but with a spacious hot shower, comfy bed and pillows, cool AC, many cable channels, reliable WiFi and a mini fridge stocked with waters for the middle of the night, there was NO sacrificing comfort here. If you are an ‘amorous’ couple, I would recommend staying in the carriage house. 😊

Our group of seven savored Victorian tea on Saturday afternoon, complete with savories, quiches, scones, and sweets.. Then two of us spent the night to more fully enjoy the house and property. We started our Sunday with a cooked-to-order breakfast before we headed home. Treat yourself to the Daffodale House. You’ll be glad you did!

Beautifully decorated with antiques and themed international items. Feels like a historical walk around the world. We stayed in the Safari room. Top class dining makes you feel like you're in a Michelin restaurant. Innkeepers are very hospitable, thoughtful and quite efficient. We'll return. Rich & Marie

What an experience! Daffodale House is a one-of-a-kind experience with uniquely furnished interiors, amazing cuisine and a very friendly owners. I slept like a log each night of my two night visit, had fascinating conversations with the owners, and truly felt like I was welcomed like a long-lost friend. I would absolutely stay there again, and would request the carriage house next time.

I was traveling with my brother so we stayed in the Victorian room. It was unseasonably cool and our host turn on mattress warmers for us. All hot food was served in warmed dishes including our coffee. The breakfast was delicious. We ate sea bass and it was delicious and so was the desserts. Monticello is a peaceful town and a great place to stop if heading to Georgia.

Beautiful elegance with just the right touch of Edgar Allen Poe! The hosts were engaging and the dinner and breakfast superb. Worthy of a destination post card, of which I intend to create! The village of Monticello is a perfect location for those of us who prefer the dimension of the rich phantasmal with their travelling experience...
