What exactly is a Bed & Breakfast you ask? A bed and breakfast (typically shortened to
B&B or BnB) is a small lodging establishment that offers overnight accommodation and
breakfast. Bed and breakfasts are often private family homes and typically have
between four and eleven rooms, with six being the average. In addition, a B&B usually
has the hosts living in the house.
According to the US Census Bureau County Business Patterns, there were 3,042 bed
& breakfast inns with paid employees (721191). These bed & breakfasts employed
19,665 employees in 2001 in the United States. According to a survey conducted by
the PAII there were some 20,000 licensed inns in the United States in 2004.

Overlooking 1,300 acres of protected land,
the two-story inn on this working ranch has a
wraparound porch; there's also a private
cottage that features its own garden. In
addition to serving eggs from Beltane hens at
breakfast, the ranch produces olive oil and
the owners raise grass-fed beef.
