Melange Bed And Breakfast, Hendersonville, North Carolina
Melange Inn and Gardens in Hendersonville, North Carolina, United States near Biltmore Estate , Carl Sandburg Home, Chimney Rock Park, Pisgah National Forest, Flat Rock Playhouse, DuPont State Forest, Lake Lure, Blue Ridge Parkway (InnSite)
Built in 1920, Melange Bed and Breakfast was restored and opened as a B&B in 1996. Eleven-foot ceilings, antique lamps and crystal chandeliers, oriental carpets and marble fireplaces remain elegant trappings of an earlier period. Against this background of old grandeur, classical music, colorful flowers, flickering candles and wonderful food now underscore a warm, cosmopolitan mindset.
Secluded behind towering hemlock hedges and century old trees yet within walking distance to Downtown, the inn and its gardens offers an intimately romantic setting for a weekend get-away and for a wedding reception, as well.
Guest rooms of Melange are named after the predominant color theme, i.e. Rose, Pearl, Cinnamon, Green and Red. Antique furnishings, ornate lamps, oriental carpets and exquisite wall and window coverings are matched with each theme into an elegant and cozy setting with fine appointments. Four rooms are on the second floor. The Rose (Honeymoon) Suite, with its two bedrooms, is on the third (private) floor.
A complementary gourmet breakfast of culinary delights is served in summertime, weather permitting, on the Rose Garden Patio and formally with candlelight in the Greenhouse in the wintertime. Candlelight dinner served in private for 2 is available with advance notice.
