The Bluff Top Bed & Breakfast is elegant, comfortable, relaxing and a joy to visit. A beautiful home in a lovely neighborhood with a stunning view of the Mississippi. Neil’s gardens are very pretty and meticulously tended. Neil Varnell, the proprietor, is a gracious southern gentleman with a quiet manner and sense of humor. He's never intrusive but is always...

A wonderfully characterful wooden house on the bluff overlooking the Mississippi. The owner, Neil, is very welcoming and friendly, and has renovated the place to its former glory, with period furniture, china and ornaments and art everywhere. The front porch is a wonderful place to watch the sun setting over the mighty Mississippi. What next? A short walk into the... More

We have stayed in dozens of Bed and Breakfats throughout the U.S. and Canada and Bluff Top has to rank as #1 or 2. The property is beautiful; the owner, Neil, took 16 years to fully restore it. This B&B is located on the highest point on the entire Mississippi River and the view is simply spectacular. Neil is a... More

This is an intimate B&B experience where the owner, Neil, is involved, caring and interested. The home is nicely decorated and a fine example of the period but the star of the show is the view of the river. We enjoyed our stay immensely and highly recommend "The Bluff Top" to all.

After 31 years it was time to revisit Natchez. I felt like I had won the lottery when we found Bluff Top. Southern charm and hospitality at its finest. Neil is unsurpassed as a host. Our accommodations (all 3 rooms) we perfect for the 6 of us. We had our own living area with the charming balcony overlooking the mighty... More

The home is beautiful and the owner Neil is very kind. It was wonderful to wake up to the beautiful player piano and the breakfast was wonderful. The location is amazing and the back of the home is as beautiful as the front of the home. Loved all the Christmas decorations.

Dear Neil, thank you so much for making our Natchez experience a unique one! Your attention to every detail, knowledge of the neighbourhood, the good tips you gave us, the amazing view of the Missisippi. It was an exceptional pleasure to be pampered with breakfast on the porch in true "Southern" style. Many thanks It's not a bluff, Bluff Top... More

Neil! Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality. The hard work you've put into your queen anne is evident. The video I took of your beautiful piano playing, turned out great too. What a marvelous view of what us northerners call the "Muddy Mississippi". Our room was perfect, the bed comfy, and breakfast was something we fully enjoyed as... More

Bathroom around the corner through the sunroom but not a problem. Great view from the sunroom balcony. The sunroom is hared with the other upstairs room occupants.
