Beautiful house; excellent breakfasts; lovely, quiet neighborhood. We stayed in one of the cottages and didn't love the shower in the corner of the room -- with glass doors, meaning no privacy, and no place to put a towel. But the bed was very comfortable. Nice little deck in back, too. I would definitely stay here again. Near Trader Joe's too.

The staff was very cordial and always willing to engage in conversation as well as suggest places to go or things to do in and around Asheville. And the breakfasts were outstanding.

We checked out earlier than planned because: The heat did not operate in the room. On the day of our departure, the temperature on the room thermostat was 67 degrees. TV & internet were inconsistent. TV would function for about 30 seconds, and then freeze until a screen message appeared to inform us that it was "buffering." It would take at least a minute for the buffering process to complete.

We had a wonderful stay. The room was comfortable, the staff was friendly and helpful, everything was well communicated, and the breakfast was delicious. We enjoyed our stay very much and recommend this to others. I appreciate the updated plumbing in the bathroom but the historic style matching the overall property was maintained.

Beautiful bed and breakfast with superb amenities, in a quiet neighborhood with private parking, quiet peaceful outdoor gardens and porch areas to relax, eat, and see the mountains in the distance. Fantastic staff and chef made breakfast daily. Excellent care and understanding of food allergies to ensure serving each guest is possible. Nearby walking to some local bakeries, restaurants and grocery stores in the neighborhood. If you enjoy walking or biking, this was a safe walk to the downtown Broadway street area.

We were speechless with the area and accommodations at the beautiful Beaufort Inn. We stayed in the Savannah Room in the Carriage house behind the house. Super clean and spacious. I love how there are working fireplaces in all of the rooms! I love how it’s a good distance off the street with a huge front and side yard full of gorgeous flowerbeds and patio seating. The area is so quiet, but a quick 10 minute walk to downtown and delicious restaurants, bakeries, grocery stores, yoga, and massage therapy. We will be back for sure!!

Wow!! One of our highlights on our week in SC, NC & Georgia! Property was beautiful! Our Host: Makayla (spelling, sorry!) was amazing! Truly kind and super attentive to us in offering local points of interests, history of the Inn, and restaurants in walking distance. We felt completely safe on the property, which helped us feel completely relaxed during our stay. Our chef presented chocolate cookies upon our arrival, as well as a Keurig coffee (tea!), or cold water dispenser. Breakfast was yummy, with a fruit/yogurt parfait, and a few alternatives in breakfast to accommodate dietary issues we have. We were surprised of his kindness and willingness to change the menu to assist us, but it was important for him to ensure we were taken care of. Quite the kind gesture! Parking was on the property, and plenty as well. Beautiful Inn with amazing history! We loved our stay! And like I said, one of our favorite highlights during our travels!! Thank you!

We stayed at the Beaufort House Inn during Thanksgiving week and really enjoyed it. The room was comfortable and quiet and we both slept really well. The breakfasts are sensational, something different from the chef each day, and all the dishes were imaginative and delicious. There's a nice porch which would be a great place to hang out, read a book and meet other guests, but in the colder months there's not really much space inside to do that - the main floor of the house is mostly given over to dining, The location is about a 15-20 minute walk from downtown, which is great, although parts of the walk felt a little sketchy at night. Overall, a very charming and enjoyable base from which to explore Asheville.

Our stay was very nice except for the temperature of our room. It got very hot through the night and there was not a thermostat to adjust. We didn’t consider this a true emergency (being that we have been in the medical field for four decades) so we did not contact anyone at the emergency number provided. Everything else was wonderful……would not currently recommend that room, though!

Beautiful BnB
Staff was so wonderful - we arrived slightly after check in times (we called ahead) and we were still greeted by the staff to show us to our room and gave us a little tour. The willow room was so sweet - wonderful shower, cute little porch with a view, and the bed was comfortable! Breakfast every day was outstanding, especially with the free coffee and tea 24/7. Thank you for a wonderful stay! Would recommended!!!

Beautiful Inn
It is a beautiful Inn and they really try to take care of every need. The breakfast was amazing. It is a little bit of a walk to town and parking was tight. One night we got back late and there were no spaces left so we had to park on the street.

Zero responsibility and misleading description
I book BNBs to have the opportunity to talk with the BNB owner. This is a corporate run place, no one lives on site. The main house is beautiful looking. But beware! Perhaps the great reviews are from people who stayed in a room within the house! Which is what we thought we were doing. But the “cozy suite” “with its own entrance” that is “in the main house” is actually a windowless (the entrance door is glass) stuffy dump of a room that is not part of the home itself but part of the same building - probably a former wood storage area or similar that is located at the back under the main house. It’s also under the kitchen given we heard every movement of the cooking staff the next morning. So the description was duplicitous and totally misleading. Further, after coming back from a walk in the late afternoon (still light) we came up behind a large bear!!! Never having seen one before we were absolutely petrified and raced into our room - fearful the bear would come banging on our very unsubstantial glass door. We called the after hour emergency number - no one answered. We left a message saying we were scared and didn’t want to leave our room. No one ever rang back. So we had a hungry evening in our horrible little room. Luckily I guess the bear moved on because there was no one around to offer help if any kind. This is appalling and could have been much worse had something actually happened. Apparently bears are around - would have been nice to have been warned.
