Plumbush Bed & Breakfast

Plumbush is less than one mile from the historic Chautauqua Institution, five minutes from Red Brick Farm and a ten minute drive to the village of Mayville for fine dining, shopping, art galleries, as well as countless music events. Just a thirty minute drive east will take you to Jamestown, New York; home of the Lucille Ball - Desi Arnaz Museum, Roger Tory Peterson Institute and the Robert H. Jackson Center. After a thirty minute drive west you will be at Peek'n Peak Resort and Conference Center where winter skiing and summer golf is available.

This elegant country 1865 Victorian bed and breakfast was the family home of Wesley and Jane Ann Cornell. Plumbush has specific characteristics which identify it as a home of the Italianate Victorian style; a central tower, L shaped floor plan, rounded arches over windows, double wide entrance door, detailed cornice trim etc.

Sandra and George Green purchased the home in 1987. The Greens completely restored the house, built a beautiful barn and created the Plumbush Bed and Breakfast. Plumbush sits on 5 acres of lovely countryside; each window looks out to nature at its most beautiful, no matter the season. With towering oaks, rolling hills and soft meadows, it is always a breath taking experience for guests. Bert and Mary Rappole purchased this property in November of 2005. They have decorated each room in unique style while keeping the heritage of the Cornell family and the restoration of this farm house by the Greens in mind.
