Carleton House Bed & Breakfast

Located in the heart of historic downtown Bonham, in North Texas, just one hour from Dallas, twenty minutes from Whitewright, is the Historic Carleton House Bed & Breakfast. The House was built in 1888 by A.J. Clendenen, who operated a grocery and produce store on the square. In 1914 , Dr. J. C. Carleton purchased the home for his family and electricity was introduced at this time. This newly renovated three story Victorian, listed on the National Register of Historic Homes, features a large entrance hall, a parlor, dining room with ceiling mural, music room, breakfast area and a large staircase leading to the bedrooms. We are also fortunate enough to have one of the two remaining carriage stones left in Fannin County. The home sits on a beautifully landscaped half acre including remnants of its original gardens, perfect for weddings and parties. It is also suited for romantic evening strolls to put you in a vacation frame of mind or a great getaway to reunite with friends or Scrapbooking Retreats.
