The Holley House Bed & Breakfast

The Holley House Bed and Breakfast was originally built in 1906 by the Lovelace family as a wedding gift to Mr. Lovelace's daughter and her husband. In 1936, it was purchased by Dr. A. F. Holley and became known as the Holley Hospital, the first hospital in Escambia County. Seven generations of the Holley and Henley families have played in this yard, walked these halls, ived in these rooms, and cooked in this kitchen.

Every baby during WWII that wasn't delivered at home in the surrounding area, was delivered here- the post-war boom kept the nursery full. Once the hospital closed and Dr. A. F. Holley moved into private practice in the 1950's, Holley House was re-purposed as an apartment building for nearly 30 years. After an extensive remodel in 1988, Lenis Holley opened Holley House as a retirement home.

Currently owned and operated by Dr. and Mrs. Holley's daughter, Deborah and husband Kermit George. Holley House has undergone a four year renovation involving blood, sweat, and tears. From floor joists to roof, the entire house has been remodeled. There is a new aqua lift elevator to accommodate those who struggle with the stairs. We are proud to welcome you to our home and hope you will come back again and a again.
