Bed and Breakfast Description

For a restful and relaxing retreat, come to House Alpenglow Bed and Breakfast. Located in the picturesque town of Kimberley B.C., nestled in the Purcell Mountains.

A warm European decor carries the Bavarian theme throughout the bed and breakfast and further on to the village just minutes' walking distance away, making this B&B the perfect starting point for the sights, festivals and the many other activities Kimberley has to offer.

The house was built in 1998 by German craftsman Tony Swartzenberger. Tony acquired his many skills while working in the family business in Germany; he cut the wood used in the inn's construction in his own sawmill. When you enter the doors of House Alpenglow, the fresh scent of the beautiful wood is very pleasant. You only have to look around at the fine crafted furnishings, ceilings and lovely wooden floors to fully appreciate his unique attention to detail.

When you enter the dining room, you will be greeted by the wonderful aroma of fresh ground organic coffee. While you enjoy the full flavor of your coffee, fresh juice or a fresh fruit in season will be served, followed by a hot breakfast.

Our theme breakfast is the "Bavarian Feast," which includes bratwurst sausage, farm fresh boiled egg, a variety of cheeses, homemade breads and jams. Other specialties of the house include eggs benedict, ham and cheese omelet roll, and farmer's skillet breakfast.
