Folkestone Inn Bed and Breakfast, Bryson City, NC Casual and beautifully maintained, the Inn offers three floors of guest rooms each with a distinct personality. Private balconies and mountain vistas.

Casual and beautifully maintained, our Smoky Mountain Bed and Breakfast is filled with old-fashioned charm (no TVs) but yet has all of the necessary modern amenities (private baths, clawfoot tubs with showers, free wi-fi). The Inn offers three floors of guest rooms each with a distinct personality and thoughtfully decorated by the owners — from upstairs rooms with private balconies and mountain vistas, to romantic ground floor rooms with flagstone floors and low pressed-tin ceilings. You can either relax on the beautiful front porch and enjoy the flora and fauna, or you can walk about 10 minutes to pristine waterfalls, hiking, fishing or tubing down Deep Creek. Or take a short ride and help celebrate 75 years of one of the most beautiful scenic drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Nearby Bryson City is home to the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, arts and crafts galleries, antique shops and a surprising variety of restaurants for a small mountain town. Just down the road you’ll find rafting on the Nantahala River, zip line your way through the Gorge, mountain biking Tsali trails, fishing and boating on Fontana Lake, hiking any of the miles of trails in the Smokies, and great scenic drives like the Blue Ridge Parkway, Cherohala Skyway or Tail of the Dragon. For your complimentary three-course breakfast enjoy dark organic coffee starting with homemade sweet breads and fresh fruit then onto the main course consisting of specialties such as sweet potato hash with poached eggs, sausage and candied bacon, lemon soufflé pancakes with warm blueberry compote, and omelets with fresh herbs and vegetables from our organic garden. Juice, coffee and tea are also served. We take pride in our bountiful gourmet breakfasts. We use farm fresh eggs, dairy, house-cured and smoked breakfast meats. Toni’s homemade jams are made from local fruits and are guests’ favorites. A light breakfast is available with advance notice. Coffee is ready at 7:30 am. Breakfast is served at 9:00 am unless otherwise notified. The Folkestone Inn is one hour west of Asheville, just three hours from Atlanta and Charlotte, and two hours from Greenville, Knoxville and Chattanooga.

Today marks 10 years since Toni & Scott purchased the Folkestone Inn and became its innkeepers!

To celebrate, I asked them three questions: What did you hope for when you started? What are some of your favorite memories? And what have your guests meant to you?

Here’s what they shared:

“Being innkeepers has exceeded our expectations, especially because of the guests we now call friends.

Some of my favorite memories are of Scott and Richard building the fire pit, and the two of us building our first chicken coop and welcoming those little dinosaurs into our lives.

Thanksgiving always warms my heart. We’ve welcomed many of the same guests for the holiday over the past ten years, and sharing that tradition has become something truly special.

And the funniest memory? The guest who came down to breakfast wearing his robe… but forgot the pajamas underneath! 🤣”

Here’s to Toni & Scott, ten years of warm welcomes, and many more memories to come. 💙
