“Personal, beautiful little getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

I wanted to book a very special weekend with myself and my partner. Having missed out on a bunch of last-minute Groupon offers, I decided to pay full-price for something special. This place stood out as being quaint, well located - and of course the raving reviews people leave are hard to ignore.

Well, I can honestly say that we couldn't have wanted for more. We booked the small cottage with the green walls. Very cute, compact and with everything you could want. The grounds are beautiful and serene, far from the road, so very quiet, and with plenty of wildlife.

The real highlight, as others have observed, was Tom and Brenda's hospitality. They may have been doing this for 27 years, but they make you feel like you've been welcomed into their home. Tom talked about his repeat business - well, duh! If you feel like you've just made new friends, of course you'll be back :) As others have observed, these guys are very well connected in the area and are very generous with their advice.

As others have observed, Breakfast is simple but healthy. I'd far rather have what they gave me than a bog-standard Continental.

Book with confidence.

“Simply the Best!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

My husband and I have stayed at Belle du Jour at least once a year for the past 13 years. It's not just the location, the beautiful grounds, the 5 gorgeous cottages to choose from or the outstanding breakfast that keeps us returning year after year. Tom and Brenda are just wonderful! Their hospitality is simply 5 star and you cannot find more fun and gracious couple. Want to discover a new winery, get dinner reservations or learn who is the best local nursery? The Hearn's will know and you will love their recommendations!

You will not be disappointed in your stay at Belle du Jour Inn and once you have stayed, you too will never make a reservation anywhere else when visiting the Healdsburg area.

Room Tip: Each cottage is different so be sure to try a new room with each visit!

“Perfect last minute getaway!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2012

My husband and I stayed 1 night at Belle De Jour and had a fantastic time. We were able to get some quality R&R here after the busy holiday season. Tom and Brenda were very accommodating and spot on when it came to winery recommendations. They were both extremely attentive and the breakfast was delicious (fresh fruit, homemade scones, parmesan egg, latte and fresh squeezed orange juice). This was a unique B&B experience for us because rather than staying in a big house, each room was in a separate cottage so there was definitely a huge sense of privacy. We felt comfortable coming and going as we pleased and didn't feel like we had to tiptoe around after coming back from a late dinner! Also, our room was spotless and extremely quiet (the Atelier room).We will recommend Belle De Jour to our friends and look forward to visiting again soon!

“Keep coming back because it feels like home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 December 2011

Over the years we have returned here many, many times. Although we never met them before our first visit, Tom and Brenda feel like good friends that seem to know just what we want and need without our telling them. Because they are long time residents, they are experts in the area and what they share adds lots to the vacation.

“A very special, wonderful B&B!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 December 2011

Our first visit to the Hearns' wonderful B&B was a last minute three-day extension of a California trip: no power at home (NJ) due to October snowstorm, so off to wine country and more CA weather! Our guidebook, and these reviews, led us to northern Sonoma and Belle de Jour, and we were extremely pleased with the delightful rooms in separate buildings, our gracious and very helpful hosts, and the away-from-the bustle setting of Healdsburg. After a day's vineyard touring, we would walk in the gardens, then settle in the gazebo with wine and cheese, reading and watching the sun go down. It all made for a perfect trip in a perfect setting.

Room Tip: The Carriage House, up above it all, is a treat not to be missed!
