When the previous owners decided to retire from the B&B business, the house was purchased by the team in 2006, and they proceeded to invest in the home to completely restore and redecorate this beautiful 1892 Victorian mansion. Today, one of the previous owners, Ripley Hotch, remains a partner to ensure the continuity of his expert touch on the inn.
A majority of the antiques located throughout the inn were transported from France and Belgium in late 2006. The collection of the current antique furniture was a tireless effort of traveling through the European countryside over a period of four years. Various pieces were purchased directly from French and Belgian chateaus. Additionally, a significant amount of wine and gourmet cuisine was sampled during the search to bring our guests the best of the best, and this process included staying in excess of 75 European castles and chateaus.
We’re proud to be a designated National Register of Historic Places property and local landmark, and we are happy to partner with some of the premier bed and breakfast associations in Asheville and around the country.
