Our room was smallest with little room to sit, bathroom had more space, food was excellent and host was excellent. Liked sitting out on porch but view is side of another building. Convient walk to beach and shopping.

Online photos of this B&B don't do it justice. It is beautiful and immaculate inside and out. Paula and her staff are fabulous. We will definitely stay there again! The only negative is parking. The good thing is, once you park, everything is so walkable, you don't need to move your vehicle till you are leaving for home.

Property was lovely. Owner was curt and not particularly friendly. She was anxious during checkout and practically carried our bags out for us! Was it because we’re an LGBTQ couple or just an “off” day?

My family has been vacationed in this part of New Jersey since the late 1950s, so I have stayed in quite a few different hotels and BnBs. I chose the Bedford Inn based on the reviews I read, its location, and photos of food I saw on social media. My visit exceeded all my expectations, and this is the only place I will stay on future trips to the Cape May area. The breakfasts featured delicious, inventive twists on classic dishes, my room and bathroom were spotlessly clean, and I appreciated all the storage space, especially in the newly-remodeled, gorgeous bathroom. There was plenty of parking on the property as well as on the street, and I was also grateful for the keyless entry—one less thing to worry about! Paula is a gracious host, and I already told my Cape May-loving friends that they need to put this inn on their itineraries.

Place is in a great location and very charming Breakfast was delicious and the wine and cheese and homemade cookies was such a nice touch in the afternoon. Bed was comfy, bathroom was spacious and updated and room was very clean. Decorations for Christmas were lovely. Paula runs a tight ship and keeps the place top notch. If you are looking for a great B&B this is the one!
