| Introduction |
|
Echos of the past blend seamlessly with the sparkle of the new at the R. R. Thompson House Bed & Breakfast in the town of Carlton, the heart of the Oregon's picturesque wine country. Built in 1936 and nestled in the northern Willamette Valley, the home features two luxury suites and three beautifully appointed rooms. Enjoy the historic charm and elegance of this completely refurbished house as you explore the best vineyards and wineries Oregon has to offer. Mike and Roselyn opened the R. R. Thompson House Bed & Breakfast in 2007 after refurbishing the historic federal style home. They had wished to become innkeepers for several years, and in the Thompson House found a property they were confident could become a beautiful and warm inn for guests to enjoy. |

Before his venture as an innkeeper, Mike spent many years as a research scientist for European-based companies (England, The Netherlands and Sweden). Roselyn worked as a writer and copy editor for daily newspapers in Pennsylvania. She wrote local news and feature stories on a range of topics. Mike and Roselyn have a son, Corey, who graduated in 2007 from UCLA School of Law. Mike and Roselyn thoroughly enjoy their new calling as innkeepers, and welcome you to join them at the R. R. Thompson House in Carlton, in the beautiful Yamhill Valley.
Enjoy a full breakfast in our dining area as you chat with other guests or make plans with your companion for a day of wine tasting or perhaps shopping for antiques. Or you may plan a day trip to Portland or the beautiful Oregon shore. Your breakfast may include our Signature Brie Omelet, puffed apple pancakes, Signature Mango Squeeze, Oregon Hazelnut Bread with Oregon Blueberry jam or yogurt with fresh fruit. There's always coffee, milk, and cold cereals, if you choose. The guest refrigerator holds a supply of juice, sodas and water for your enjoyment anytime.

 The Rose Suite |
You are invited to experience the beauty of a 1930s Oregon mansion surrounded by roses of every color, irises, daisies, wisteria - and a magnificent magnolia tree. The home features original appointments of exquisite mahogany woodwork, softwood fir floors and lighting fixtures. Echoes of the past blend seamlessly with the new, in our private, marble tile baths with whirlpool tubs for each suite and room. Fine linens, air conditioning and free wireless internet will add to your enjoyment. Satellite HDTV is available in the main living room and in the suites. In the living room, enjoy conversation with fellow travelers, read a book, or challenge your companion to a board game. You will find the furniture soft and comfortable, with beautiful side tables of mahogany. You may also step out onto the cedar deck to enjoy the beautiful gardens or simply relax in the sunshine. Whether your visit to the Yamhill Valley is for a romantic weekend getaway, wine tasting, or for business purposes, we will endeavor to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. |
