The fire is crackling, the holiday cookies are fresh from the oven, and somewhere under the tree sits a package that, if you shake it, feels suspiciously like… another sweater.
We’ve all been there. Don’t get us wrong, sweaters are lovely, truly. But this holiday season, there’s a gift that’s a little cozier, a lot more memorable, and far less likely to end up folded in the back of a closet: a relaxing getaway to our luxurious, Asheville bed and breakfast.
Why an Asheville Bed & Breakfast Getaway Makes the Perfect Holiday Gift
Think back to the gifts you remember most. Chances are, they weren’t things at all! They were experiences: a slow morning with nowhere to be, a long conversation over a second cup of coffee, a quiet weekend that felt like it was just for you.
That’s the beauty of giving an experience. The excitement begins the moment it’s unwrapped, grows as the trip gets planned, and lingers in every memory told afterward.
And for the person on your list who insists they “don’t need anything”? They’re probably right. What they could really use is time to rest and recharge, and that happens to be our specialty here at 1900 Inn on Montford.
Sweet Moments Waiting for You at Montford Inn
Built in 1900 by Richard Sharp Smith, the supervising architect of the Biltmore Estate, our historic bed and breakfast is quaintly nestled in Asheville’s Montford Historic District, just a few blocks from downtown Asheville. With eight guest rooms, we have the joy of getting to know each guest and making every stay their own. Here’s a little taste of what you or your loved one can look forward to:
-
- Cozy rooms made for unwinding. Every room has a king size bed with luxury bedding, plush robes, and a personal fireplace. Wind down in one of our private jacuzzis or spa showers, perfect for soaking away a busy year.
- A homemade breakfast to start the day. Our gourmet, three-course breakfast is served every morning (yes, there’s even breakfast dessert!). Gluten free? Dairy free? Whatever your dietary restrictions, we’re happy to accommodate.
- Treats for snacking. Fresh local coffee and scratch made cookies from our kitchen are ready any time. No sneaking necessary!
- A little extra pampering. Guests can upgrade their stay with in-room spa treatments, from massage to aromatherapy.
- Live music. On Saturdays, tap fingers and toes to live mountain music. If it’s warm outside, this lovely evening takes place on our spacious front porch.
- Leave the chores at home. Let us take care of you or your loved one for a change! Take a break from cooking, cleaning, and laundry, and enjoy some time to just be. Settle in, relax, and we’ll take care of the rest.
- Room for the furry family, too. Three of our suites are dog-friendly, so nobody has to stay home.
Gift Certificates: Where Cozy Arrives to Your Door
Whether you’re spoiling your sweetheart, treating your parents to a well-deserved weekend away, or saying “thank you” to someone special, a gift certificate to our Asheville bed and breakfast is a gift they’ll truly treasure. And we’ve made giving one as easy as can be.
- Personalized. Add your own note of love or appreciation. We’re happy to work with you to make sure it looks just the way you want.
- Thoughtfully presented. Each gift certificate comes with a custom Inn on Montford mug, a little taste of the cozy visit to come.
- Simple to purchase. Order right on our website or give us a call, whichever works best for you.
- Mailed with care. We can mail it to you or send it straight to your special someone. Gift certificates typically arrive in about two days with priority mail.
- Plenty of time to plan. Gift certificates are valid for one year after purchase, so your loved one can pick the season and the room that suits them best.
Want to make it extra special? We’re all ears. From champagne to chocolate, we’re always happy to help you plan a surprise.
