We loved our stay at the Bellwether! The location is fantastic, the accommodations are charming, and the staff is great! We particularly appreciated Paul who made us feel so welcome and went out of his way to make sure our stay was fun and comfortable. Matt was also super friendly and was very attentive. The complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, and champagne toast were the “cherry on top” to our stay.

Fabulous property in the most beautiful location. Our room was lovely with the most comfortable bed and luxurious bedding. The location of the property is brilliant- we walked everywhere and it was gorgeous cafes/restaurants and squares at every turn. We had a lovely breakfast each morning and they also offer afternoon tea and champagne in the evening. We really enjoyed our stay was wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay here. The elevated breakfast was delicious every morning. It was a beautiful presentation every day. The staff were all so friendly and attentive. We felt very relaxed during our stay. Sipping coffee on the front porch, enjoying champagne on the back patio added to our experience. We truly felt the Southern hospitality here. The tree lined street in the beautiful neighborhood was the perfect location for us. We were close enough to walk to everything but far enough away to enjoy the calm and quiet. The afternoon tea was a lovely bonus. I highly recommend staying here if you want a true Bed and Breakfast experience with a lot of attention to details. I definitely will stay here again.
