Southern Green Gables Bed and Breakfast


  • Inn Details

    This Historic Dutch Colonial was built in 1932 by prominent politician, Alexander Nelson Pursley, was later donated to the Catholic Church for the St. Louis de Montfort Fathers' and was used as a monastery. After extensive restoration by several owners, it is now an Elegant Southern Styled Bed and Breakfast. Our recent purchase of this home situated on three and a half acres of wooded property and extensive redecorating has created a very unique weekend getaway. Jeanetta and Rodney have designed each bedroom to reflect an elegant memory of the South. Jeanetta and Rodney are both natives of Eastern Kentucky and Western North Carolina. They have fond memories of their southern childhood upbringing and wish to share this with you. Southern Green Gables Bed and Breakfast would like to invite you and your family to come, relax, "sit a spell", and get ready to enjoy true Southern Hospitality! Let us be your home away from home. As said by Carlton R. Smith "A person doesn't have to live in the South to want to share good food with friends at the end of a warm day when the breeze is just right or to bask in the rewarding afterglow of a hard day's work in the garden. Southerners didn't invent these sorts of simple pleasures-WE JUST REFINED THEM."

    Southern Green Gables Bed and Breakfast was a warm and welcoming destination for these two weary travelers - a big, beautiful, comfortable house in a peaceful rural setting. The rooms are very comfortable and immaculately kept, and breakfast is beyond extraordinary - bountiful and delicious! Innkeeper Jeanetta Mabry is about as nice a lady as you'll ever meet - she will take such good care of you that you'll definitely want to visit again. We had a wonderful stay here and we highly recommend this beautiful inn to all fellow travelers! Kate & Brad Tucker Richmond, VA

    So much nicer than staying in a hotel! Jeanetta took care of everything for everyone! We had a very nice visit even though we had just met. Breakfast was wonderful and everyone was so friendly.

    I stayed here for a recent getaway so that I could do some personal and professional writing that I had been putting on the back burner for a long time. My stay at Southern Green Gables far exceeded my expectations, and I was able to accomplish all my writing goals ~ all while being well fed and treated warmly by Jeanetta and Rodney. We had some wonderful conversations that helped to balance my writing time. We also had several belly laughs! I was so lucky to stay in the Derby room. The bed was very comfy. I recommend requesting the almond danish. I had more than my fill, plus Jeanetta sent the rest home so that my family could enjoy! I am a grateful guest!

    My husband and I were traveling through Hartford City on our way home from Springfield and decided to choose Southern Green Gables to spend the night and we were very happy with this choice. This B & B is exceptional in many ways and I must say the home is absolutely beautiful, the innkeepers are very friendly and the food was wonderful. We were very happy we picked this B & B and I have to say it was outstanding in many ways. Mike and Nancy from Pa.
