My wife and I love this little inn. Very charming and Homie with lots to discover. Highly recommended. The end keeper Howard was very responsive and attentive. Couldn’t ask for more

Staff reached out to us in advance to provide us check-in and parking information. Once we arrived, staff welcomed us via text and made sure everything was going well. The location was great and convenient for the purpose of our overnight stay. Room was clean and everything worked well for an older property.
The property was really cool and we enjoyed our stay.
The only reason not to give it 5 stars was the condition of the building. It is a old home in an historic area, the cracks in the walls and shower area just need to be patched and updated.

Howard was a wonderful host. The decor is wonderfully done. It is very quaint and lovely. It’s is in walking distance to the town square even though we took the car. It’s in a nice neighborhood. I will definitely stay again.

Wonderful host, great old house to explore, like a museum with a Brit twist! Great wrap around porch. Teacups, plentiful tea and coffee in room. Our suite was like an antique store, so many items to appreciate. Very clean accommodations. Short, easy walk to downtown Waxahachie, great breakfast places. Sweet town.

Amazing experience! We stayed in the cottage, and it was just beautiful. The bed is comfortable, and the cottage is very quiet. They have a Keurig with assorted coffee and tea (regular and decaf). I look forward to staying here again!

A museum and interesting but not quite as comfortable to stay. There is no in house breakfast and only Keurig drinks 😔 but a coupon down at a couple of restaurants.

Lovely little BB. We chose the cottage to keep to ourselves although found ourselves touring the inside of BB and sitting on the porch of the main house. Very lovely place

This is our second year to stay at the English Merchants Inn. The beds & pillows are so comfortable! They provide q-tips, eye makeup remover, cotton balls, makeup remover wipes, & bathroom spray. Who does that? It was rainy & cool during our stay so we enjoyed a fire without the mess of wood. This is a wonderful place to stay. I do wish they provided on site breakfast. Not thrilled to have to leave the Inn for breakfast, but not such a big issue to keep me from staying there again.

The English Merchant Inn is a wonderful place to stay. All the amenities you could think of in a beautifully maintain home. The owner, Howard Baskins, is a great host.
We have stayed here several times in the past as we do an annual bike ride “Tour D’ Italia” each year. Unfortunately, do to the early start of the ride we have not experienced breakfast. However we plan to stay two nights next year.
The town of Waxahachie is quiet and lots of Beautiful homes in the surrounding neighborhood. Excellent restaurants are also near by.

It's just lovely. The decor and the attention to detail where remarkable. Felt like we were somewhere completely different. We had a great nights sleep. Howard and Mary are so sweet and accommodating. We had dinner at the Parlour and it was wonderful. Eddie and Dulce took such good care of us.

This bed and breakfast was a delightful find in Waxahachie. Howard, the owner, was very friendly and gracious. My husband and I stayed in the cottage and found the place to be quite comfortable. We enjoyed the Keurig for tea and thought the main house was very well decorated and comfortable.
This place is very inviting. It was nice to have 3 options to choose from around town where to have breakfast. My favorite was the White Rhino Coffee.
However, I do want to mention that the train was very loud during our stay and I was left incredibly sleep deprived on the last night, before needing to wake up early for our flight the next morning. (Yes the train goes all day and all night and is very loud). This is not The English Merchant's Inn's fault but would recommend you bring ear plugs so you can have a restful sleep.

This Bed and Breakfast is pure bliss! The owners are incredibly friendly and accommodating. I will definitely plan another stay here but for longer than two nights. They also have a restaurant/pub in downtown that is amazing.

Our stay at the English Merchant's Inn was very nice. The house is quite charming with a little whimsy thrown in. We stayed in the Cottage which was private and clean. The bed was comfortable with a nice assortment of pillows and the sheets were heaven. It was a great Get away. We will definitely be back.
