Welcome to the Alling House, a Bed and Breakfast with three rooms and five cottages, owned and operated by Gerald and Nan Hill. For over 40 years this was the home of E.B. Alling, a well-known mayor of Orange City during its formative years. Learn how Orange City was founded as part of the expansion of modern civilization into Florida along a prominent transportation route provided by the St. John's River. You will find the house has been well preserved over the years. Many visitors agree that the Heart of Pine wood floors are one of its most beautiful characteristics. The house is decorated in a comfortable Victorian style that reflects its heritage. Nan has designed each room in a way that provides a uniquely refreshing experience, encourages stress to melt away and causes guests to forget about the cares of a busy routine.
We invite you to sit for a spell in the swing on our large front porch and relax while listening to the many beautiful birds. Take a peek at the goldfish in our pond and spy on the two large bullfrogs that guard the edge. Stroll across the front yard that provides a great presentation of our majestic home and a nice view of our landscaped property, surrounded by the residential neighborhood nearby. Browse underneath the canopy of trees behind the house and view the flora and fauna of an area frequently visited by the local critters that call this place home.
Each room has a clock radio with CD player, cable T.V., hair dryer and a private bathroom with spa quality towels and robes for your comfort. An iron and ironing board is available in the closet at the end of the hall.
The common area on the second floor is available to relax in, watch television, read, play games or use high-speed access to the Internet with our guest PC or wireless router. This area also contains an ice machine and a small refrigerator with drinks and snacks. The exit door in this area is only intended to be used in emergencies. The main house has central air conditioning and heating. Each cottage has its own A/C and heating unit. The family room, parlor and dining rooms on the first floor are available for your use. You are welcome to play the 1908 Baby Grand piano. We love to hear the music. There is a handicap-accessible half-bath on the first floor.
You will be given certificates that will provide discounts to businesses in our area and are available to use for the length of your stay. Tickets to local theatrical productions are available for guest use.
We have access to a professional massage therapist that can provide one-hour full-body massages for guests in their rooms at a very reasonable rate. Please make arrangements with us in advance.
