A Stay Full of Stories (and So Much )
From the very first…read morephone call, Brian made us feel welcome. He personally took our reservation, was incredibly friendly, and immediately set the tone for a truly memorable stay.
The Jonesborough B&B is a charming historic home just a short walk down the hill to Main Street, home of the Storytelling Capital of the World, and it genuinely feels like a place where stories live. The original hardwood floors creak as you walk, old books line the shelves, and even the cute tandem bicycle on the porch feels like it has stories of its own.
We stayed in the master suite, which was comfortable, cozy, and full of character. One of our favorite thoughtful touches was the warming stones. Such a unique detail and incredibly comforting after a cold day of exploring. Placed under the covers near your feet, they warm the entire bed and make it unbelievably cozy. I think I am really going to miss those rocks .
Breakfast was welcoming, warm, and wonderful. Clearly prepared with care . It felt homemade, relaxed, and personal. Exactly the kind of breakfast that invites you to linger and talk, which felt especially fitting in a town built on storytelling.
One of the highlights of our stay was swapping stories with Brian. We loved hearing about his art, his travels, and his son's adventures abroad. Those conversations made the experience feel less like staying at a B&B and more like being welcomed into someone's home.
What truly stood out was how supportive and connected this town is. Everywhere we went, we mentioned Brian's name and were met with the warmest welcome. True VIP treatment. Special thanks to The Opossum's Tail , Kaley's , Neuma Coffee , the International Storytelling Center , Timber! , Persimmon Park , and Auntie Ruth's for helping make our trip absolutely perfect .
Staying here felt like being part of Jonesborough's storytelling legacy, and it was exactly the quiet we were looking for. If you are seeking an authentic, charming, and heartfelt place to truly slow down, this B&B is a true gem. Brian is a gracious host, and we would absolutely stay here again. Thank you, Brian!!!!
