MANSION ROOMS
Lovely Mansion Rooms in a Historic BnB in Hot Springs, AR.
The mansion guest rooms at 1884 Wildwood BnB were named by "Tink" who owned the home from 2002-2016. She loved Wildwood and she loved classical poetry. Even though she has gone to her "mansion in the sky", as a tribute to her, the rooms are still named after her favorites. Rebecca (her daughter) and David still are the Innkeepers.

The Barrett-Browning Room
"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul reach…”

Their courtship and marriage had to be carried out in secret because of her father's disapproval and she was indeed disinherited following the wedding. They sacrificed much to be together so their story is a true love story!

The room is in a wonderful rounded turret space decorated with lace and silk to set the rood for romance. You can relax in this large room surrounded by the original woodwork.
