Fantastic experience. Diana and Kevin were incredible hosts. Spending Thanksgiving with them and their guests was a real treat. All of the food was incredibly delicious. The room was warm and cozy during an especially frigid Thanksgiving. We come to Asheville often, but our experience at Carolina B&B made this visit especially memorable!

Carolina Inn Review

Exceptional hosts were so helpful and accomodating. The breakfasts were amazing, so delicious and different! On-site parking was great, the house was in the historic district and close to two wonderful restaurants that we walked to! The only "constructive criticism" would be that the bed (king-size) needs to be replaced in our room. It sagged and was soft . . . we are accustomed to firm! Everything else was extraordinary! Would love to see it in the Spring when her gardens are in bloom!

Magnificent Carolina

Diana and Kevin were very welcoming and friendly. Diana showed us everything and all the little extras, a wide range of teas, coffees, soft drinks and snacks. Excellent location for a dander into downtown Asheville which is full of great dining options. Carolina itself is set on about an acre of land in a lovely setting with beautiful plants and flowers and a lovely porch with rocking chairs.

This place is all around magnificent! The owners make you feel like you’re their most important guest every time you interact with them. The room we stayed in was large, charmingly decorated with very comfortable bedding. During this particularly cold weekend, we never felt uncomfortably cold or too hot. There was a furnace which controlled the temperature for the house, but in our room we also had an electric “fireplace”, a fan if we needed it and an air conditioner we could’ve used. The bathroom and dressing area were both large and updated. Towels were soft and thick. Two bathrobes were just icing on the cake! And speaking of cake…the breakfasts here are an event!! Served in different china and linens every morning, our table was set in one of two sitting rooms with its own real wood-burning fireplace. The two-course breakfast is a treat which is expertly and meticulously crafted by the owner herself and her staff in her magical kitchen. Every room is meant to welcome you and entice you to sit a while and enjoy the lost art of conversation. The grounds are lovely with different gardens that I’m sure are lovely in spring and summer. The quintessential front porch has another sitting area and of course a porch swing! I didn’t care it was cold, I swung! I can’t wait to go back. This was the first of what I hope will be many happy stays at the Carolina Bed &Breakfast for me and my family!!!
