Escape to the quiet charm of the Hill Country at Timbuctoo Hotel - Room 1, a beautifully appointed guest suite nestled on a working ranch just outside Bandera, Texas. Surrounded by peaceful landscapes, rolling hills, and native wildlife, this inviting space is ideal for a romantic retreat or a restful solo getaway. The interior exudes authentic Western warmth, blending rustic textures like corrugated tin and natural wood with thoughtfully curated decor and cozy bedding.
Step outside your private suite and take in wide-open views of the surrounding countryside, complete with horses grazing nearby and deer wandering through the fields. A stone pathway leads past a firepit and native landscaping, welcoming you to relax under the big Texas sky. The front porch is the perfect perch for sipping morning coffee or enjoying an evening sunset. With easy ranch road access and scenic beauty in every direction, this suite offers a peaceful Hill Country experience just minutes from Bandera's downtown attractions.
Inside, you'll find a plush queen bed with charming ironwork, wood-paneled walls, and a handcrafted table and chairs. The kitchenette features a K-Cup coffee maker, mini fridge, and microwave for light snacks and simple meals. Whether you're heading out for a day of adventure or enjoying a slow morning in, the room is thoughtfully equipped to keep you comfortable. Large windows bring in natural light and scenic views, while the interior A/C keeps the space cool on warm afternoons.
