Yes, there is a key to heaven and you're given it when you check into the Caldwell. From the first moment I entered this beautiful B&B, I was immersed in beauty and warmth. The highlights of my stay included three gourmet breakfasts that I assure you could not be surpassed at a 5 star restaurant. Having been in the hotel & B&B industry for years, I can say this with certainty. Content, texture, taste & presentation, all were perfectly balanced and served by the most gracious hostesses Carolyn & Gretchen. If you don't instantly fall in love with these ladies, you should check your pulse. Next on my rant list had to be my bed. Holy mother of all that is fluffy and enveloping, this bed made me feel like I was indeed in heaven wrapped in a white cloud of softness. If it were not for the many activities I had planned for that weekend, I would have rarely left it. AMAZING COMFORT!!! Ok, so bottom line, beautifully appointed rooms, exquisitely decorated historic home, lush landscaping and inspiring stonework, statues, fountains, lemon trees, wrap around porch (great for chillaxin), professionally managed, graciously hosted and I can't say enough about this place. FAR exceeded my expectations! I swear I heard an occasional harp playing. ;-) Mitzi Romanelli

We were met at the door by proprietaor Carolyn Sagrera, whose fine hospitality was the cornerstone of out trip to Abbeville, LA. We felt as a part of the family that would have lived in this fine residence 104 years ago. We will return often.
