The architectural details as well as the furnishings are top notch without being fussy. The towels are plush as are the beds.

We were there in the spring and the weather was cool and the air filled with scents of honeysuckle and fresh grass. Scott and his wife made a delicious country breakfast with eggs that tasted really good. The coffee kept coming as did the history of the house and its surroundings.

You will be a little leery but once you ease around the corner and see the front of the house, you will be amazed! The property is beautiful as well as the wild deer that may run in front or along side your car. It is like you drove back in time. You would never imagine such a beautiful place would be hidden down that street. Scott has done a beautiful job of providing modern conveniences without taking away from the historical ambiance of the home. Satellite TV, hidden mini fridge, microwave and Keurig (yes there are pods and bottled water for you to use or bring your favorite) just to name a few. We were late getting back to our room that night and we were concerned about waking the family that was in the next room but with the quality construction of yesteryear, it provided an excellent sound barrier, they didn't hear us and we didn't hear them at all. The king size bed was very comfortable, not too hard and not too soft, just right! We slept wonderful. Scott will make arrangements with you for breakfast in the morning, time, any allergies or dietary restrictions. From the china place settings to the last bite, breakfast was perfect. If you are lucky enough, Diane (I believe), Scott's mother will be there to give you a wonderful history lesson while he is preparing your meal! If you have never stayed at a Bed & Breakfast before or even if you do all the time, this is one you will love! I promise!

"Collina House is an 1830's home perched atop 8 1/2 acres of manicured grounds surrounded by dense woods." It is also listed on the National Historic Register. I've walked through many historic homes looking and not touching, but this house is actually a home. There are comfortable chairs and couches that are to be used and enjoyed. A lovely front porch, back patio with fountain, game room/library, music room and dining room are there to be lived in. It is not a museum! Many lovely and comfortable bedrooms, too. Our retreat was five days and four nights of comfort, care and enrichment. I really didn't want to leave and am planning to return in the very near future.

We committed to stay there based on her responsiveness. Upon arrival, we were met with wonderful hospitality and the offer for some grilled-cheese sandwiches. Claire could see that we had been riding all morning and knew we could use a pick-me-up. The whole experience was welcoming and cozy. We were able to walk into town and grab a bite to eat and Claire recommended we visit the historic cemetery, so we made the short walk to see it. It's fascinating. If you're looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway, the Collina House fits the bill. I hope to make a return visit in the future.

Much of the structure is semi-derelict and the photographs are misleading. On our stay, we and our friends were the only guests and we had a terrible time. The toilet waste pipework was apparently blocked when we arrived. Our friends were told that their bathroom must not be used. In fact it was the macerator pump in our room that ran, very noisily, through the night, making proper sleep impossible. In the morning (5.30am) we were told that there had been a leak during the night and that now there was no water anywhere in the house. We were given some bottles of mineral water each so that we could clean our teeth, but we were not able to wash or use the lavatory! We left at 6.00am in search of a gas station. We made an immediate written request for a refund. The owner was very slow to respond, and then completely unsympathetic. She has now prevaricated for three weeks. Resolution was promised by a week ago but we have heard nothing and she fails to respond to our follow-up emails. We give up! DO NOT STAY HERE!

Monmouth (Natchez, MS)…read more The house is absolutely stunning!!! The staff there is so freaking friendly. And the food,... omggggg it was so good. I got the pork chop and *starts drooling* it was fantastic!! The home was built in 1818 by John Hankinson, a postmaster, lawyer and, steamboat entrepreneur, during the depression that followed the War of 1812. The mansion was a brick two-story in the Federal style. Hankinson and his wife died soon after completing the house and the house was sold at a public auction to Calvin Smith, who one year later sold the property to John Anthony Quitman, the future Governor of Mississippi. John Quitman, originally of New York City, was a partner in a successful Natchez law firm and married Eliza Turner, a member of one of the most prominent families. Quitman purchased Monmouth in 1826. The house was extensively renovated in 1853 in the Greek Revival style. The original brick was covered by stucco, scored to look like stone, and the portico was added to the front, along with the four square columns supporting it. John A. Quitman died at Monmouth on July 17, 1858, apparently a victim of what was then called the National Hotel Disease an ailment similar to Legionnaire's Disease, which many American politicians contracted after staying or dining at the National Hotel in Washington, D.C. His wife died a year later and their children took control of the home. In 1862, when Natchez was attacked by the Union army, most of the slaves fled. Most of Quitman's original possessions were either stolen in 1863 or sold by Quitman's daughters in 1865 due to financial difficulty. The house was spared from further damage during the war, as the daughters befriended a Union general and pledged loyalty to the United States. In 1866, three of the daughters purchased their siblings' share of the property, and by 1890, Annie Rosalie was the sole owner of Monmouth. In 1914, she died and left the home to her nieces, who sold it in 1924. For the next half century, the house was severely neglected with the house and other surviving structures filled with litter and the grounds overgrown. After several changes of ownership, Ronald and Lani Riches of Los Angeles, California, purchased the property in 1978 and restored it to its original condition. The restoration took 3 years. In 1982, after archaeological research determined the location of two small houses used as slave quarters, the buildings were reconstructed on the original sites. Though most of John Quitman's original furnishings had been lost, the house still contained a few pieces such as a sofa, a carved settee, and several chairs. The Riches searched for other furniture and memorabilia from Quitman, and they were able to recover his desk, two four-poster beds, and the Quitman family Bible. Other memorabilia now include the gold sword presented to Quitman by James K. Polk and the United States Congress for his services in the Mexican-American War, as well as the red handkerchief Quitman used to rally his troops.
