    Located in a quiet, residential neighborhood, Strickland Arms is walking distance to Shipe Park, Elisabet Ney Museum, Austin landmark restaurants, and coffee and other specialty shops. Featuring twelve-foot ceilings, formal dining and living areas, wrap-around antebellum style porch (complete with rattan swings), a private back yard and French patterned garden veranda(under construction), the native limesone, turn-of-the-century, 5000 square foot home will take you back to a time when things were much simpler. You will forget the hustle and bustle when you step through our antique wrought iron gate and walk through the beautiful baroque fountain garden shaded by a massive red oak and pecan trees, up the limestone front steps, and past the twin giant great dane statues that guard the front door of Strickland Arms.

    First time in a B&B will Definitely Repeat!

    March 23, 2013

    We stayed in Sir David's Room and was absolutely impressed by his hospitality. We had a beautiful view through the windows of the back gardens with the pool and trees. The breakfast was so nice with delicious coffee, yummy orange juice, fresh eggs, fruit, and amazing biscuits with jam. We would definitely stay here again, it was so soothing, a little oasis in the heat of Texas spring, a home away from home.

    Best Bed and Breakfast Ever!!

    October 24, 2012

    Strickland Arms is the most welcoming, gracious bed and breakfast we have ever stayed at. The inn keepers made us feel so welcome!! The breakfast was delicious!! The coffee was available at 7 am and breakfast was served at 9. There was a mini-fridge filled with bottled water upstairs by the rooms which were beautifully decorated. The porches and grounds were magnificent. There is a pool, hot tub, and fountain in the backyard. We will only stay at Strickland Arms on our future trips to Austin!! Danny and Beth Ward

    A great stay in Austin

    July 30, 2012

    We had a great stay -- the B&B was very reasonably priced, located in the heart of Austin about 5 minutes from UT where our conference was held. The room was great and I would definitely stay here again!
