I found this gem on Yelp! Thank you Yelp!…read more It's a beautiful bed and breakfast, and the owners have exquisite taste in furnishings and decor. We stayed in the Beaufort Suite, and I slept like a baby in that huge comfortable bed with such soft linens. I love that we could control our room temp because we like it cold at night, and the unit cooled down quickly and quietly. The bathtub! Oh my! I want one of those so badly! We were there only one night, and I took two baths. The entire bathroom is stunningly gorgeous, well lit, and so spacious. You had hot water within seconds of turning the shower on, and it didn't cool down even a little bit. The Inn is located at a perfect spot, as it's a quick walk to everything you'd want to do in Belhaven. There are condos directly across the street which block the water view, but a vacant lot next to those allow for a beautiful view. The breeze coming off the water is wonderful. Happy hour was a nice treat, and enjoyable. Gail and Alan are great hosts, easy to chat with, and also interesting to converse with. They really do make you feel right at home, and act as if they've known you forever. (Don't worry though, they also leave you alone if that's what you prefer.) They have a great outdoor area to just sit, or swing, and enjoy the peacefulness of this quaint town. We loved our stay there.

Booking was easy with friendly service. Arrival was contactless and we never met or saw anyone during our stay of three days. The cottage was on a second level with a flight of steps which as a surprise because I had not noticed that from pictures. It was fine for us but might be difficult if traveling with someone with mobility issues. Inside, everything was so cute and clean and they had anticipated our every need. The kitchen had coffee, snacks and cereal and the fridge was pack with delicious breakfast items and treats like fresh backed goods. The yogurt appeared to be homemade and was delicious! The bed as comfortable and the rain shower was delightful. They even supplied the bags for our dogs potty trips. The main inn was unoccupied during COVID so we had the beautiful back yard garden all to ourselves. The view of the water was blocked since the cottage is behind the main house but the town docks were very close by, just a very short walk. Because of COVID, a lot of the restaurants in town were closed in the middle of the week but there was enough available for our needs. We visited in September 2020 and it was just what we needed, a quiet get away after working 7 days a week since March. We loved it and highly recommend it as a nice, quiet place to get away and have your every need thoughtfully met.

Prices are totally reasonable and include a DELICIOUS homemade breakfast (one of the best quiches I can remember in recent memory!). The rooms are well furnished and contain many personal touches. They feel rather like staying in a friend's guest room, or maybe a friend's grown daughter's former bedroom. I found the room we stayed in charming; but this may be a pro or a con to you depending on your tastes. All rooms have ensuite baths. One room has a Jacuzzi, but we didn't stay in that one. The town itself is rather small, and you'll need to go outside it to find any lasting entertainment. But nonetheless, this is the place to stay if you find yourself in Belhaven.

We began the evening on the porch with prosecco and home cured salmon. Dinner was not easy since our family consists of a strident vegetarian (you can't say chicken in her presence), a gluten free person who won't eat fish or sea food, mushrooms or spinach, a diabetic, and two non meat eaters. To make up for this, three family members will eat anything. First course was spring vegetable risotto, next ratatouille with a side of roast chicken breast for the meat eaters, then salad. Dessert was house made mango sorbet, and a ten layer chocolate cake made by Donna the baker. Everything was delicious. After dinner we sat in the parlor and played games. A perfect evening thanks to our hosts Diane (the chef) and Don.

The porch was just beautiful with double seat swings at each room upstairs. There are 2 houses actually and we stayed at the newer one. The rooms all face the sound and sunset it amazing on those balconies. This place is so clean and well kept and very eclectic and funky. I have to say that the reason I chose this inn was because they had new king size tempurpedic mattresses. I am very picky about beds and this one was the most comfortable bed Ive ever slept in, the pillows too. Especially away from home. The other reason is that it said on their website that there was free wifi. I will say at the time we stayed there there was only wifi in the main house so we didnt really have that available. They said we could go over and use the main house parlor there for wifi but it was kind of weird for my husband because he woke up early and didnt want to wake the other guests up. Also walking between houses at night for wifi was not something I wanted to do. They said they may have more broad wifi access some time in the future so maybe that will change who knows. It would not stop me from coming back I can assure you. The surroundings more than makeup for the lack of wifi. The hosts were such a sweet pair which we looked forward to chatting with every day. They serve homemade breakfast out on your porch every day with very strong coffee first then they comeback with interesting, fresh high quality ingredient egg concoctions. Something different every day. They were extremely helpful and enjoyed giving us great suggestions and easy directions to wherever we wanted to go. We literally walked into a mama deer and her 2 babies while we were walking under the main house to go out to the sound. I couldnt believe it. We also saw a fox and rabbits in that secluded area they are in located at just off the main road. We also saw a beaver in the sound and little crabs at the edge of the sound. There is a cool walkway out from each of the houses that walks out to the sound and cool benches. Its very sceneic so amazing with boats floating by and the sunset. I recomend this place for adults only. There are so many eclectic funky things all about the house that Id be afraid they might be ruined by kids. Also the whole house's wood floors are rather noisy even from within your room but if its just adult traffic it isnt a problem. But I could imagine running feet and loud voices would echo through the whole place. I wish there was a lock on each of the room doors but they did have a closet that you could lock valuables up but the rooms remain unlocked. This didnt pose a problem and we werent worried about our stuff truthfuly but Id have liked to lock it just the same. We spent a whole week and we would love to stay again. I hope we do get to comeback someday. We loved it!

The front porch is amazing to just sit on and relax. It's only a couple blocks from the water and downtown area so completely walkable. It's so convenient to have a restaurant on the property so no one has to drive. The breakfast was delicious with nice touches. We loved that you could eat within a two hour time frame rather than having to eat at a certain time. The one thing that will keep me from going back is the bed. It was a regular cheap looking mattress that had a Temper Pedic mattress topper pad on top. Lame. With two of us in the bed tossing and turning all night, by morning, five inches of this pad was hanging off one side of the bed. The pillows felt like bricks. The sheets were the kind that make you sweat all night. Oh! I almost forgot about the plastic covering on the mattress pad! Lovely sound every time you moved. Needless to say, we didn't sleep well at all. One more thing - the descriptions of all of the rooms said "ironed sheets." While I certainly don't care if my sheets are ironed, the point is not to say they are when clearly they aren't.

There was no one there to greet us when we arrived and no one at the desk when we left. We never felt welcomed - the staff was not particularly friendly and we felt like no one cared we were there. Our room was awful - the bed was uncomfortable as were the two chairs in the room. It was incredibly hot with no thermostat to control the room temperature. Our door was not sealed properly and the light poured through the door at night. Breakfast was a joke. For fruit I got three blueberries, two grapes and a half a strawberry with a half a slice of bread. Our coffee was lukewarm. Our eggs and toast were not cooked properly. It was so bad that even though we paid for two nights, we left after the first night and forfeited the cost of the second night. If you are going to Edenton, stay somewhere else.
