This is Holly Court Inn...I've attached a link to the pic, so if you'd like to click on it, it should take you there for a more personal tour of this lovely estate once you're done viewing my other pics below of our room.
This is the first thing you see when you enter the room, and the owners, Phil and Maggie have restored this home to a spectacular level of quality. The fireplace is gas, and it was so nice since it was still cool outside in February last year when we visited. I love the colors of yellow/blue, anyone that has been on my blogs know they are some of my favorites! The chandy lured us in, and the rest is below...
These side chairs sit to the left of the fireplace and there is a window to the left of both chairs that you can see the large property where the garden is. Even though the garden wasn't in bloom when we were there, I still loved walking through it to imagine how lovely it must get.
This was our King Size bed with fine linens, the finest I've ever experienced in a B&B. Phil & Maggie visited many B&B's all over Europe before they went into this business. They both wanted the "perfect" B&B, and they've got it! This room had all the spectacular touches, and we enjoyed it so much. Each morning a tray with hot beverages was outside our door by whatever time we requested it.
This is a lovely closeup of the mirror above the fireplace so you can see the way the chandy is viewed. If you click on the mirror, you should be able to see the details better. So gorgeous!
This was our lovely bathroom, the pic does not do it justice, that's why you'll want to go out to the site by clicking on the house above. This was royal treatment from start to finish with our own stark white robes to wear while there. The entire bath was restored with all new plumbing and bathroom fixtures.
The pics I miss sharing right now are those of the parlor where we dined for dinner one evening for two hours all by our romantic lonesome. Maggie is the chef, Phil the server...it was so wonderful! The breakfasts were spectacular, and so nice at the huge dining room table where we sat each morning. You must do yourself a favor for 2009, go to Phil & Maggie's in Washington, GA...if not for anything else, just to experience the peace and enjoyment of this magnificent historical estate.
The restoration of this home reminds me of what God has done for my marriage over the past seven years. Phil told us about all the work that went into making this B&B the beauty that it is today. It wasn't an overnight project, and it definitely cost them a bundle (my perception) =), and marital recovery works the same way. But, just like the B&B at Phil and Maggie's made it through the transition, it's gorgeous now, just like our road to recovery and healing in our marriage!
