Rooms feature wood-burning fireplaces, high ceilings, original wooden floors, and elaborately carved woodwork. Overnight guests enjoy hearty, full, southern breakfasts served in the dining room. The Schoolhouse, built circa 1840 by the Parker Family for their children, and the kitchen building, circa 1800, have been converted to guest houses. Together with a third guest house, built in the 1930's, these buildings provide eight charming guest rooms with overnight accomodations for sixteen people. Interiors feature handsome furnishings, floral chintz fabrics, fireplaces, beautifully carved mantels and woodwork, private entrances, private full baths, and air conditioning.
Guests enjoy the outdoors at Mansfield.
From the spacious brick terrace, designed in the shape of a palm leaf, guests have a magnificent view of the marshlands. Depending on the season, the grounds feature azalea and camellia gardens bursting with color. Guests are invited to picnic on our expansive lawns under canopies of oak trees draped in moss, play croquet, or simply relax in a hammock with a good book. There are many ways to enjoy Mansfield's unspoiled, natural environment. We invite you to walk in our woods and fish for brim and bass from our dock.
