Sourwood Inn

I surprised my wife with a weekend getaway at SI for our 10th Anniversary. From the moment we arrived the staff was very accommodating and we had one of the most memorable dinners at the Inn that night. The food and presentation were excellent and the wait staff were attentive, but not overly so. We are both in Sales and stay at a lot of B&B's during our travels and this was one of the best. The breakfasts both morning were excellent. We will definitely stay here again and I would highly recommend SI to anyone wanting to spend some time away from everything.

A fabulous inn, from the flowers to the fireplaces, to the footstools and food, everything has been thoughtfully laid out... nightlights, a pool table, walking trails, a library of surprising variety including nature books to identify the thousands of plants and animals just outside. The Blue Ridge Parkway is a 5 minute drive away, charming Weaverville with the delectable Well Bred Bakery and the Curtis Wright Fly Fishing shop 20 minutes one way and downtown Asheville 20 minutes in the other direction. Gentle, responsive hosts. We will return again and again. I am dreaming of the white chocolate cake.

The best little hide-a-way on earth. A wonderful experience, the atmosphere, rooms and food were amazing. The Inn is stunning! The staff are the nicest people I've ever met. If you want to get away for a very romantic weekend, this is the place to go, or if you're looking for a calm and relaxing place to stay while in Ashville, NC, you have to stay at the Sourwood Inn.

This is a fabulous Bed and Breakfast. You'll love the innkeepers and the food is something to remember too. There is no air-conditioners and if you come in June, July, or August it can be hot and even uncomfortable. The grounds are beautiful and perfect for strolling. You aren't far from tourist areas, shopping, art galleries, and outdoors activities abound. We consider this OUR special B&B.

Beautiful, peaceful, breathtaking views, fantastic food, I could go on forever about how wonderful and special our stay was here.

We have spent many a wonderful weekend at Sourwood over the past years and just returned from a lovely long summer weekend. This amazing Inn offers complete relaxation on the side of a mountain with magnificent views. The Staff and Innkeepers are like family and cannot do enough to make everyone special. They always remember your name and all about your family. Kacia the chef prepares the most devine dinners, all fresh local grown food, prepared with wonderful seasonings beautifuly presented. This lovely inn is only a few minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the staff are well informed on the best hiking trails. If you are an Art lover in just minutes you can be down in Asheville and enjoying the local art galleries. This is our favorite place to decompress. Charlotte, NC

Sourwood is simply the best bed & breakfast ever. Our first visit was on our honeymoon and we've recently returned each Fall for "recharging." The breakfasts, snack, and service are top-notch. I will never stay anywhere else in Asheville!

We spent two nights at Sourwood last week. We loved the open windows, hummingbirds that practically sat in your hand, wood burning fireplaces in each room, the absolute cleanliness of every single corner, gorgeous landscaping, multiple areas to quietly read, lovely arts and crafts detail, knowledgable hosts. It was a "come back to" place for us.

My wife and myself recently had the pleasure of staying at the Sourwood Inn... I can truly say I will reutrn and enjoy the experience again. From the moment we checked in until we departed... the entire staff was incredible. The best kept secret in Asheville. Meticulous attention to detail. amazing breakfast, simply a warm relaxing experience, words cannot express our gratitude for this totally enjoyable experience in simply having a place to relax and enjoy lifes simple pleasures.

I've traveld the world and I've had great service in lots of places - Sourwood fits right in there with the best. If you want to be pampered and attended to like your a king or queen and feel comfortable treating people as servants then do not go to Sourwood - they don't derserve that type of behavior - if however you want a very nice quiet place to relax where clean rooms, great food and scenic beauty mesh to provide a truly great experience unobtrusivly managed by some of the nicest people you will ever meet - seriously, then head to Sourwood. Sourwood is like a duck - you just don't notice all that goes on under the water - you just notice the smooth operation and grace that is Susan and her family. I've been back to Sourwood 5 times and each time has been fantastic - highly recommeded.

We have been staying at the Sourwood regularly for years, and everyone there makes you feel extremely comfortable. Each and every room is gorgeous, with a balcony and big tub overlooking the mountains. The beds are amazing, and we have stayedn in many of the different rooms. The owners put such care into every detail. Breakfast is amazing and the dinners created by the chef never disappoint. If you are looking for some true rest and relaxation, this is the place for you. We could not recommend it more.
