SUITE retreats
By Torie Robinette
WHETHER YOU'RE HERE FOR WORK, TO VISIT FAMILY OR TO PLAY, CHARLOTTE'S COZY
ACCOMMODATIONS NEVER CEASE TO ELEVATE YOUR STAY.
Southern Living's takeaway from a visit to The Morehead
Inn—"Expect to be spoiled rotten"—says it all. Nestled in the
Dilworth district, this beautifully aged Colonia Revival estate built
in 1917 was designed by London-born architect William Peeps.
Since opening its doors to the public in 1984, The Morehead Inn
has become an in-demand boutique bed-and-breakfast providing
a picture-perfect respite for visitors and locals looking for a
getaway within a getaway.
From the ivy that climbs the inn's exterior chimneys to the
touches of elegant, Southern Victorian Era design that fill its
interior, the inn's history and splendor has been preserved through
time, including during a renovation process that took place in
1995. Luxurious guestrooms are adorned with exquisite period
furnishings and many include fireplaces and balconies.
Retreat back to an early 20th-century morning over a homemade
Southern breakfast served atop fine china in the inn's main
dining room. Then stroll the lush courtyard canopied by sprawling
trees to admire the delicate architecture that imbues this grand
clapboard mansion with the grace and charm for which it's most
famous.
