What’s the weather like in Tallahassee this week?
HOT - JUST HOT! Stay inside if you can, and if you can't, cover your head and drink LOTS of fluid! And that goes for your furry friends too! #Wehaveairconditioning #FreeAC #Freebreakfast #FreeWifi #FreeParking #TallahasseeBedandBreakfast #REALBnB #19yearsInnBusiness...
Where’s the Best place to stay in Tallahassee?
Trip Advisor says the Little English Guesthouse Bed and Breakfast is in THE TOP 10% of ALL the listings on TripAdvisor and we're chuffed to bits! That makes us one of the best places to stay when your travels take you to Florida's beautiful Capital. A big THANK YOU to...
Who does Harry and Meghan’s new baby look like?
They finally released a photo of their daughter, who just turned 1 year old. Lilibet, named after Queen Elizabeth, was in London so Mum and Dad could attend the Platinum Jubilee celebrations honoring the Queen's 70 year reign. Harry and Meghan stayed at their Frogmore...
Who does pomp and ceremony the best?
Well the British, of course! Today's first day celebration of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee has kept some of us (well, maybe just me!) glued to the screen to see all the happenings around the country. The trooping of the color is one of the finest examples of British...
Of course 70 years on the throne is something to celebrate!
Wouldn't it be marvelous to be in England today, as the celebrations for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee get into full swing? All over England, the bunting flies high (I heard the shops had actually run out) and there are streets cordoned off for street parties. Most...

In the busyness of business, we may have forgotten to tell you that we accept Venmo, Cash App and Paypal. When you make your reservation, just make a note that you'd like to pay that way rather than using a credit/debit card and we'll make sure to honor your simple...
When do the clocks go forward? This freezing Saturday night! That’s when.
Methinks this plan would drop a rather large fly in the ointment (well, mine anyway) because 4 pm on Friday is the busiest hour of the week around here! That hour is Check In time at the Little English Guesthouse. Even when it's supposed to be a freezing Saturday...
Rest in peace, George, my friend
A few months ago we buried a dear friend, George. Gone, after 32 years of friendship. Much of that time was spent debating (some would call it arguing) politics, climate change, swapping travel tips and airline seats. We'd find flight bargains on the internet and...
Tallahassee Marathon and half marathon this Sunday – are you a runner?
This Sunday, February 6, 2022, Tallahassee is the place to be! But it's already Thursday so you need to get busy if you're planning on adding Tallahassee to your belt. Alas, I'm not a runner or I most certainly would be downtown with you. Tallahassee is such a pretty...
Florida weather – too funny – and absolutely true.
Much as we all love to complain about the weather, or as some call it, "just talking about" the weather, these facts speak for themselves. (Courtesy of Wink TV in Southwest Florida). It's almost like living in London. Many of our guests are parents of FSU students....
Did you know today is National Florida Day?
Who knew? Not I. Today, January 25th, is National Florida Day where we celebrate all things Florida. I'm not sure what that would be. But I can think of several things for which I'm grateful. Living in Florida brings hurricanes, tornadoes, 100% humidity, mosquitos,...
Prince Andrew, Jeffrey Epstein and the Queen of England
What a disaster. Prince Andrew, 9th in line to the throne (which means 8 of his blood relatives would need to die, or abdicate, before he could be crowned king), has been stripped of his titles. No more His Royal Highness, no more military titles or honors. He's a...
Just because this made me laugh…

It’s a brand New Year – or it can be anyway.
Happy New Year to you and yours! I'm glad that 2021 is in the rear view mirror, are you? For many the year of the pandemic, 2020, was quite dreadful, only to find 2021 be even worse, for a myriad of reasons. It's made many of us realize that we should count our...
We think you’ll love our Tallahassee bed and breakfast !
It's been an unusual year (didn't we say that in 2020?) for this Tallahassee bed and breakfast. We are grateful to be still in business, about to enter our 19th year, having seen so many small businesses (and large global corporations) close their doors in the last 18...
Places to see in Tallahassee – from atop the St. Marks Lighthouse
What's not to love about this dignified, 80 ft high edifice gracing the skyline over the Apalachee Bay? It's the 2nd oldest light station in Florida, originally built in 1830, with a giant reflector lens at the top. It would be a rather picturesque place to get...
Thank you, Veterans! Lest we forget their sacrifice for you and for me
Lest we forget! So easy to forget unless we are intentional about it. It's also easy to forget the details of why it's important. Celebration of the end of World War 1 in 1918 soon turned to sober remembrance of all who were lost and the freedom for which they fought....
Come listen to Star Wars under the Tallahassee stars! Things to do in Tallahassee
If you're a fan of Star Wars, or the epic film scores of John Williams, you won't want to miss this night! On Friday, November 12, the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra will be playing his music at the outdoor amphitheater downtown. Grab a seat up front, or spread a...
Greek Food Festival – fun things to do in Tallahassee
Spanakopita, anyone? Dolmades? Gyros, Moussaka or Baklava? What's it all about, you ask. It's the Tallahassee Greek Food Festival - and they're back to pre-Covid fun! An annual event in Tallahassee, Thom and I have enjoyed this for almost 2 decades. Scheduled for...
