I can't say enough good things about this space. First of all - the location has it all. Mary's home sits on a hill just off of a main street that leads right into downtown, so it is very convenient and only requires a 15 minute walk to get to shops and restaurants. At the same time, we felt like we were staying at a farm house as they have a large property with plenty of beautiful old trees and gardens. The guest area is attached to the main house, but it is its own space entirely and offers a great deal of privacy. Everything about the space from the gorgeous antique chandelier lights in the bedroom to the uniquely beautiful bathroom was warm, charming and inviting. Also, the private deck is a great spot to have coffee in the morning.
If you're going to Asheville and want a space for two that is charming, private, and conveniently located, this is the space. Mary was so sweet and welcoming upon our arrival and gave us great advice about restaurants and things to do. We would absolutely stay here again!
