My boyfriend surprised me for Valentines day and took me to this B&B. We both have never been to one before and were a little heating on what to expect. We stayed in room 1 and it was simply gorgeous inside. The bed was really comfortable and the pillows were excellent. There was so much for us to do just at the inn. They had a wide selection of newer and older popular movies that we had a choice from. They also had a wide selection of board games making it wonderful if you just wanted to hang out for the day. The pottery selection is fantastic, all hand made and special. The other guest were very nice and respectful. Everyone talked to us when we saw them but at night everyone was very quiet. Breakfast was delicious. She made eggs with veggies, blueberry muffins that were delicious and assorted fruit. The town itself is beautiful with a grocery store, dollar store, and plenty of eating choices right there. We went to a pizzeria called Tastebuds were they make their own dough. I would highly recommend this. We are excited to visit again as soon as possible.

My wife and I came here on our honeymoon. It was amazing. Julie is a fantastic host who is fun, personable, and kind. She went above and beyond to take care of us and by the end she was our friend. Wilmore is a great place to go to get away, and the Potter's Inn is a fantastic bed and breakfast. We highly recommend it. It was awesome!

We stayed at the 18th century log cabin. It was the perfect place for us since we were in the area for a re-enactment of the Seige on Fr. Harrod. We were warmly welcomed, treated to a wonderful breakfast, given a personal tour of the owner, Rudy's, pottery studio, all for a price lower than a decent motel room. We plan to return

The Potter's Inn is a relaxing place, rockers on the porch, but with central heat and air - a thermostat in each guest room. The rooms are beautifully furnished. Julie fixes wonderful breakfasts at a convenient time for the guests! She is warm and welcoming, and will make your visit one to remember fondly. You will want to come back! And it's convenient to Asbury Univ. and Asbury Theological School, plus many area attractions. You can also purchase hand-made pottery, lovingly made by Dr. Rudy Medlock, the "potter" of Potter's Inn.

I just happened upon this charming little B&B as I was in search of a place to stay for a couple of nights. The beds were very comfortable. The bedroom had a private bath (I'm told that all four rooms have a private bath). The breakfasts each day were plentiful and delicious. The host made the stay pleasant and I intend to return as often as I am in the area.

This place is a must try. If you visit, insist that Julie make apple bread french toast with the signature apple cider syrup. You will be totally blown away by the hospitality and the quaint ambiance of the historic home. I will definitely plan future stays here.
3.6 out of 5Very charming Inn!

This was my first stay at a B&B, so I was not sure what to expect, but it was overall a great experience. The beds at The Potters Inn are the most comfortable I have ever slept on! Great hospitality.
