Frommer's Review
This inn opened in 1987 in a Georgian/Queen Anne-style home in the historic Montford district. The house was built in 1898, during the heyday of Asheville's summer resort boom. Restored to its original grandeur, the inn is run by Jim and Linda Palmer. Oriental rugs and antiques, some of which are precious family pieces, are used throughout the inn. Sherry (served on the porch) and discreetly placed fresh flowers add grace notes that make this a tranquil retreat -- one of the best-run B&Bs in Greater Asheville. Guests dine around the fireplace in cold weather or on the porch in summer. For breakfast, try the fresh blueberry blintzes and banana pecan waffles with butter rum sauce. The traditionally styled guest rooms have queen-size beds, and some have a sitting area with a couch. The two-bedroom suite is decorated with white wicker and lace. One bedroom has a queen-size bed, and the other has twin beds; there are also well-kept bathrooms with walk-in shower or tub/shower combinations, and a private balcony. Children 13 and over are welcome on weekends only.
