Bradford Place Inn is a unique B&B with Victorian era architecture from the Gold Rush period. What made this B&B so special was its owner/host Kim with her gracious hospitality and delicious homemade breakfasts. It’s just one block off Main Street Sonora and an easy walk to shops and restaurants. A great location for exploring beautiful N.California.

Comfort and Warming!

A lively Victorian bed and breakfast! The old charm with updated plumbing. Comfortable bedding, plus being served a tasty breakfast with delicious coffee! A picturesque garden to sit outside and enjoy the blooming flowers too!
Saying goodbye at the end of our delightful stay. Only 45 minutes to sledding in Strawberry.

Most wonderful B & B ! Loved it

Eric and I (plus fur kids) had an amazing stay for his birthday get-away at Bradford Place Inn. So happy that we found this place! Kimberly is incredible and the most kind host, ever. The breakfasts she thoughtfully prepared were so delicious! The Inn is beautiful. Perfect location. Our room was immaculate , comfortable and quiet as well. Everything you need is there. We stayed during very stormy weather and had tons of options for staying indoors if you wanted to (fun games, cards, books, movies, cocoa, coffee, etc.) We certainly will return there sooner than later. We can not thank Kimberly enough for such a lovely stay.

The house itself is a charmer. But what made this experience exceptional was the owner, Kim. She greeted us with the warmest welcome. I felt her sincerity and enthusiasm for making us feel at home and have our needs met. We had two nights here and the breakfasts were not only delicious and filling, but artfully presented. The coffee was fresh ground and brewed. Many thoughtful and special touches. All in all, we look forward to being with Kim again.
