Nestled in 11 acres of woods with Scattering Fork River running along the edge, Simple Pleasures Bed and Breakfast in Tuscola, Illinois is within convenient driving distance to the university towns of Champaign or Charleston.
While strolling down the nature paths on occasion, a deer may pass. After a walk, you may relax in the hot tub that's centered in the all-glass conservatory surrounded by tropical plants, a good time to do a little stargazing. There are several places on the wrap around porches to sit and chat or read a book.
In the game room you will find a regulation-sized pool table, a color TV, reclining sofas and games to play. Evening snacks are served around 8:00 pm. In the morning a full breakfast is served in the formal dining room or cozy country kitchen. Within 30 miles are Amish Country, Rock Home Gardens with horse drawn carriage rides, the Broom Corn Festival, Raggedy Ann and Andy Festival, and much more.

Our group of friends from Northern Ireland and the U.S. met at O'Hare Airport in Chicago, and it was extremely stressful getting out of the airport and city. This was after a day of delays on both sides of the Atlantic and the usual hassles of international travel. We drove a few hours south to Simple Pleasures B&B, and it was getting quite late. We were impressed that the innkeeper waited up for us and saw that we were tucked into our beautiful rooms before going to her own bed. The elegance of this charming country B&B cannot be overstated. Each room has its own deluxe antique furnishings, features, and comforts. The quality of sleep in those delightful rooms was just what we need. We all awoke to an amazing morning and walks on manicured paths leading to the river, a goddess' statue, a hot-tub in its own gazebo, and lovely endless gardens. Then an amazing breakfast was served, starting with fresh fruits in yogurt sauce with home-made pumpkin bread, leading to a full breakfast of sausage, hash browns, eggs, biscuits, and ending with a breakfast dessert of fresh strawberry shortcake. It was really unbelievable, and all our stress was relieved. Thank you to Bob and Berniece for creating this bit of Heaven on Earth for weary travelers! After leaving Simple Pleasures, we visited the Amish museum and Rockome Gardens between Arcola and Arthur, Illinois, and learned a great deal about the Amish way of life.
