Circa 1854. Stately columns, a welcoming front porch, and, perhaps, Miss Kitty Stray greet guests to the inn. Spacious guest rooms feature a king or queen bed, sitting area, and an all-season fireplace with the original 1854 mantel. Bathrooms boast shower/tub combos, individual bath salts, robes and slippers, and antique Italian tile from the 1930s. The elegantly appointed dining room sets the scene for a gourmet breakfast featuring a fruit, homemade bread, a sweet or savory entrée, and the special Bloomsbury Blend coffee. Mingle with other guests during the afternoon social hosted in the ladies' parlor or on the verandah; additional common areas include a library and two acres of manicured gardens. Special extras may be added to each room for coffee lovers, history buffs, and romantic getaways. The inn is four blocks from downtown Camden.
