803 Elizabeth is a small friendly bed and breakfast in Matthews NC
just ten miles southeast of downtown Charlotte and all of its
attractions.
The home, built in 1962 is situated on five acres in a
residential neighborhood. Our Bed & Breakfast offers a peaceful
respite with the exception of the occasional crowing of the rooster.
There are porches, a large common sunroom and a parlor for reading or
relaxing. Many family antiques furnish the bed and breakfast in a very homelike
atmosphere.
Much of the 5 acres is wooded, but the house is
surrounded with beautiful gardens that include fruits, flowers and many
different shrubs and trees. Seasonal gardens of roses, flowers, herbs,
vegetables and fruits surround the spacious home.
Will is an avid rose gardener while Martha is a former
master gardener who specializes in herbs and perennials.
The property was designated in 1999 as a Back Yard
Wildlife Habitat by the National Wildlife Federation.
Check-in is after 2PM and check-out is 11 AM, but
special arrangements can be made to accommodate your schedule. Just ask!
Please note, we are closed the last two weeks in
November and December and the innkeepers have one cat.
