Welcome to South Court Inn! Spring 2009 was kind to us, just enough rains to keep plants growing and no late frosts and the garden really put on a show for us. We picked this photo not just because of the flower display, but because it also gives a good view of how large the house is. Built in 1875 as a farm house on the front of a 400 acre farm, a major renovation 1938-1940 saw it gain even more rooms, a sun room, the wrap-around porch and a brick veneer. Two parlors combined to make the 15x30 foot living room, the dining room expanded to 18x23 feet and two full baths upstairs made it an exceptionally luxurious house, well ahead of its times. Come visit today and enjoy the gardens and the grand refurbished interiors as part of you elegant getaway here in Luray, in the heart of the beautiful Shenandoah Valley...only two hours from Washington but a whole world of less stress and slower paced life away.

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage. It was the perfect balance of comfort and privacy. The breakfast on both Saturday and Sunday was amazing; I have tried and failed to make the pumpkin spice french toast at home. Tom and Anita went out of their way to make us feel welcome and to make sure our trip was perfect. We decided to try the wine trail, and we had an wonderful time relaxing at the different wineries. We will definitely be staying at the South Court Inn again. We cannot thank Tom and Anita enough for making our first vacation so wonderful!
Perfect!

I could not have asked for a better place to have my intimate wedding! The staff is great and really personable. They are also very knowledgeable about the house which makes for quite interesting discussions! Make sure you ask about how the basement was put in!

Tom and Anita are fabulous hosts. The room was comfortable. A welcome snack basket and mini fridge with sodas and water were nice perks we've not experienced before. Meals were FABULOUS -- looked great, tasted great, and were unique. The Thanksgiving package included dinner at the Mimslyn Inn in Luray. It was a delicious dining experience. Tom even made us pumpkin pie and yummy apple pastries for our second dessert! Great coffee to drink with the BEST PUMPKIN FRENCH TOAST made with croissants. Every course, from fruit to dessert, was what I would expect from a fine dining establishment. Tom and Anita have all the bases covered for a marvelous B and B experience. We've been going to B and B's for 10+ years for birthdays and anniversary, and South Court Inn with Tom and Anita Potts rates in the top 3 of all times.
