McLallen House Bed and Breakfast

Self-catering Apartment Available

Furnished, two-story, two-bedroom, cottage-style, self-catering* apartment
with separate entrance and off-street parking.

Two couples staying more than four nights in Trumansburg may want to consider the apartment as an alternative to the bed and breakfast. It is more economical and, if you are "foodies," you can avail yourselves of the local farmers markets (in Watkins Glen, Ithaca, and Trumansburg) farms, wineries, roadside stands, and Amish stores to collect the makings of many fresh meals during your stay.

Quiet historic village neighborhood with three-minute walk to post office, bank/ATM, restaurants, clubs, laundry mats, bookstore, Gimme! coffee shop, a short drive to the grocery store, and the TCAT bus 21 to Ithaca Commons and Cornell campus is available at the bottom of the hill.

Desire: quiet folks sensitive to B&B operation.

Hermann M. Biggs (1859-1923), New York's first commissioner of public health, was born and raised in this Italianate Victorian house. The apartment is located in the north wing of the house, likely a former servants' quarters.


*Self-catering: breakfast, daily housekeeping not provided.

The apartment is on the premises of McLallen House Bed and Breakfast. It has an open floor plan with a fully-equipped kitchen/sitting area and living room, one and a half baths (lines/towels provided), weekly cleaning, private second-story porch off both bedrooms, ground-level back porch with gazebo overlooking meadow garden, digital cable television with DVR and DVD player, WiFi, non-smoking, security deposit.

The living room is decorated with landscapes of upstate New York and Europe. At right is a watercolor of Owasco Lake by Trudy Cunningham Van Atta. In the center is a watercolor of a covered bridge at the Tuscarora Club in the Catskills. It was painted by Mary Jean Alexander, Trudy's professor at the Parsons School. At left is a reprint of an archival photograph of Genesee Valley Park in Rochester (an Olmsted landscape) from the George Eastman House collection.



Over the couch are two watercolors by Van Atta of Sweden and Norway. On trips to Scandinavia Deirdre's father fished for salmon and her mother painted. At right is a Van Atta oil painting of a train station in the former Yugoslavia painted by her mother from a photograph taken by Deirdre during a semester abroad in college.
In the west bedroom upstairs is a watercolor of the Governor's Palace in San Antonio, Texas. Van Atta painted in the 1940s while her first husband (Deirdre's father) was stationed in Texas during the Second World War. The mirror is by Mary Reynolds, an Ithaca area artist. We have another of her mirrors in the Bradley Room in the bed and breakfrast. At far right is the door out onto the upstairs porch.


There is a Van Atta watercolor of an Italian village over the bed in the east bedroom.

A sleeping porch is accessible from both bedrooms. A chaise longue
 and a chair hammock allow guests to watch the birds in the pines,
 listen to the sounds of village life, and take a nap.
Another Mary Reynolds mirror is over the bureau in the east bedroom. The photograph (right) of barn doors at the Crane Beach Hotel in Barbados was taken while spending a few days on the island after a research cruise (ODP Leg 154).
