Beaufort House Inn

Check in time; 1100 check out time; comfortable bed; amazing shower; temperature of room was perfect; quiet area even though surrounded by so many other homes. Loved that house was so close to walking to downtown area. All around great value.

Breakfast could have been better. Yogurt was in a shared bowl for all guests; no microwave to heat eggs or oatmeal if needed after mixing with hot water; had to wait on coffee; only one shared canister for all guests; had to ask for items instead of having plenty displayed for all guests.

The 5* reviews on here are no where near our experience of this guest house. Our room was very compact, the bathroom (5ft x 3ft) was a toilet and a shower fashioned into what must have originally been a store cupboard. If you sat on the loo your knees and feet protruded into the shower. No window in the 'bathroom cupboard'. Showering was an experience. Sink was in the bedroom. Only one bedside table due to space. Very little space for cases and as we were travelling through the mid west we were living out of our cases. The house is listed as a historic building...goodness only knows why as in UK this is just another cronky old B&B that needs investment. It was clean, cold given age and weather at the time and breakfast was as described... a continental offer which was fine. However, I totally understand why US travellers are impressed by its age and hence the reviews.

The house was beautiful! This was my boyfriend’s and my first time at a bed and breakfast. It was also super easy to walk to the downtown area.

The room was very warm at night. I did not think the heat was needed during this time since it got very warm during the day.

Disappointed when we were not in the Inn itself, but given a room called a cottage behind the back of the house, even though this is not what was booked. Very rarely do I post negatively, everyone deserves the benefit of good intentions. However, the facts are clear when we both tripped on the pot holes and broken roadway because the breakfast and the tea and coffee were in the main house. Walking in the dark to and from the house on the uneven brick path to our 'room' in the back was just as bad. This was probably in the lowest ranking of any stay we have had. I am quite sad to say this because we had been looking forward to staying at the Inn.

The fact that they preserve this old Inn-style accommodation is great. The atmosphere and the feeling in the Inn is just remarkable. Clean and cozy. You don’t have to mind a bit squeaky doors and floors, though. But that’s just part of the charm!

It was very cute and cozy! The staff was great!

This inn is simply perfect! We stayed on our way to Nashville and then back again several days later. Greeted by Sara, who is darling …we walked up a wide staircase to our room the Theodore Davidson. A queen bed extremely comfortable and a superb bathroom with large soaking tub( yes a step up) and robes. After a great night sleep a yummy breakfast of continental +++. Coffee, breads, bagels muffins, yoghurt great granola and juices. Perfect! Quiet, comfortable and extremely clean. Our return was the same room by choice. We have stayed at many other inns in this area over the years…but Beaufort is our number 1 choice for now. Also a simple but delicious dinner at Strada.
