Quilt Garden

The Scottish Bed and Breakfast is just 8 miles from the two “Quilt Gardens” in Nappanee, Indiana one located at Amish Acres and the other located behind the Nappanee Chamber Office on US 6.  Make your reservation now for your stay and plan your trip to visit the beautiful Quilt Gardens in “Amish County”.  18 super-sized quilt inspired gardens from May 30 to October 1.  Why not take along a picnic lunch to enjoy as you stroll the gardens. You won’t want to miss even one!

The quilt gardens tour is a “free” self-guided tour, at your leisure, takes visitors to 16 locations throughout Elkhart County. Gardens range in size from about 80′ by 80′ and can include more than 80,000 blooms. Along the way you will find 16 large-format murals painted in patchwork quilt designs on sides of buildings.  The Innkeeper at the Scottish B&B will supply you with a map.

When you return back to Inn, you may relax by the indoor pool, or outside garden patio and reflect on your FUN day.  This Northern Indiana getaway will charm you with the beautiful gardens and the simple life of the Amish that you will see along the way.
