About this property

Holland House, built in 1877 filled w/ character and charm located on the square

A building filled with character and charm built in 1877, one of only a few that survived the hurricane of the 1900's. The unique twist of the building is what we fondly refer to as "character". Located on the square, a private brick paved courtyard with large oak trees to unwind or simply enjoy the quiet that our small town has to offer. Shops are within walking distance or just minutes drive from eating establishments. The 2 bedrooms share a Hollywood bath (each bedroom has it's own vanity and toilet but share a claw foot tub/shower enclosure). The first bedroom has a queen and a twin. The second, has 2 full size beds. In addition, there's a hall half bath. The kitchen is fully equipped with the basics for meal preparation along with breakfast cereal, coffee and tea. Washer and dryer available for guest use. Minimal parking in the rear or free street parking in the front. No parking or blocking of the side or back alley. Free WiFi, Netflix and TV with 50+ local channels, DVD player

No smoking or pets.

Discounts offered for weekday business travelers or frequent/repeat weekday guests.

Girls trip

The property was comfortable and has more than enough room for sleeping and relaxing. The living/dining/kitchen is huge. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes/utensils/pots, and pans. Loved the large island and the claw foot tub/shower. We arrived on the coldest day of the year and there are plenty of extra blankets for the beds.

Wonderful Place!

We loved our stay! Everything was very clean and the place is beautifully decorated. Everything we needed plau more was provided including food basics like coffee, tea,cereal, etc. The beds were comfortable and the Jack & Jill bath was perfect for two women. There was plenty of privacy between the two bedrooms for people who may not be on the same sleep schedule. I highly recommend this property for two singles or two couples.

Small Town Charm

The Holland Haus is as quaint and charming as in the pictures. It's a peaceful property yet close to cute shops and wonderful restaurants. I enjoyed a relaxing week exploring the area and just resting. It was a much needed break from the hustle and bustle. Donna has thought of everything one might need during their stay and quickly responded to my questions. She even sent me suggestions of some things happening nearby on the 4th of July. Only an hour from Houston---this may be my new favorite getaway place.

Perfect Girls’ Weekend!

Holland House was the perfect setting for a wonderful time with my daughters and granddaughter. The location was ideal for shopping and dining on the square. We could just step outside and walk. Bellville has terrific shops and restaurants, but isn’t overrun with other tourists, so we were never bothered by noise. Also, we loved sitting in the back courtyard listening to the birds and watching the cat. There was also a park nearby for my five year old granddaughter. The house itself is charming and comfortable. I really enjoyed the big bathtub! We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Donna Lankford

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Bellville and proud to call it home. Brad and I live off site and are proud parents of our daughter who is a recent Aggie graduate.

Why they chose this property

The building was originally home to a newspaper that had been moved from where the library currently stands. Through the years it has been a bar, antique store and many restaurants. Built in 1877, it has lots of history. Brad and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary in the early 90's when it was a quaint, romantic restaurant called Holland House. When I purchased it, the floor and walls had many license plates covering holes. Some of the holes in the floor, we were told were bullet holes from the days when it was a bar. The 1936 plate which is hanging by the front door was taken from the floor and restored. The sign above the dining table was made with the flooring from the back rooms of the building in which the lumber is a mixture of species, textures and patterns.
