The Cabell House

Your stay at The Cabell House puts you at the heart of the Old South just steps away from the High Battery and views of Charleston Harbor and Fort Sumter.

A stroll up lovely brick paved Church Street to stately Broad Street and on to the famous Market Street area offers a variety of unique shops, unforgettable restaurants, and lively night spots.

Inside this charming Charleston family home, the antique furnishings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and broad verandas create an elegant restful environment. Large guest rooms have king size beds, private baths, and cable TV. There is plenty of free parking available and a soothing garden to rest in at the end of the day.

Native Charlestonian, Randy Cabell, will help you with recommendations and reservations, for restaurants, tours and entertainment.

We serve a continental breakfast every morning and our sister B&B, The Palmer Home, just around the corner on East Bay Street, graciously offers our guests the option of a full hot Southern breakfast every day (except Thursdays). Each afternoon, our guests are also invited for wine and cheese at the beautiful Palmer Home, a chance to meet and mingle with locals and other visitors.

Innkeeper Response
It's true, you caught us on a very bad day. The homeowner (me) recovering from the flu and both housekeepers coming down with it. Room, breakfast and hospitality all dependent on these people. But shame on you, mr and mrs jim niemir, for never voicing a single disappointment with us. When guests assure us that they are fine, even in the face of a problem, we believe them. My apologies for what truly was a rough visit. Please contact me for a complimentary repeat and let us show you how responsive and hospitable the CABELL HOUSE normally is. Randy Cabell

Review The Cabell House, Charleston, SC

Photo Album

The Nathaniel Room has a king size Charleston Rice Bed. The windows to the front of the house in this room look out onto the old narrow brick paved Church St. and some of the most charming and historic homes in America constructed during the late 18th and early 19th Century. The windows to the south look over the second floor columned piazza. (That's Charleston for porch.)The Mantle and entrance in the Nathaniel Room
The Nathaniel Room offers a flat screened tv, a ceiling fan, tea/coffeemaker, and a private dressing room. The room looks out onto the narrow brick street and 18th century houses across the street on the west side and onto the columned second floor piazza on the south side.Our guests are invited to our sister B&B the Palmer Home, just a few steps away for a full hot Southern Breakfast every day (except Thurs.)for an additional $5.00. Our guests are also invited to the Palmer Home for a complimentary wine and cheese every afternoon at 4:00 pm. A great chance to meet and socialize with other visitors.
The Cabell House is just a few steps from Charleston's famous High Battery, a seawall that offers an inspiring sunrise walk or a truly romantic moonlit stroll.
