Our French-Inspired Day in Charleston

Published on by Amy ProbinLeave a comment

I’ve said before that one of the greatest characteristics of Charleston is the breadth of its history. Charleston has been shaped by so many people from all over the world as they’ve uprooted and moved to this small peninsula. A few weeks ago we decided to spend an entire day downtown focusing on just one contributor to Charleston’s elaborate tapestry: the French! You can follow along in our footsteps to plan out your own French inspired day downtown…

Published on by Amy Probin3 Comments

I don’t know about you all, but every year after I’ve cleared away all the Christmas decorations I go through a period of readjusting to how bare everything looks.

What could be more charming than a stay at a Charleston B&B? Not only are you surrounded by the history and charm of Charleston’s downtown, you’re actually waking up in it. I love that bed & breakfasts offer a great way to truly immerse yourself in the place you’re visiting. Personally I choose a B&B when I can because they just feel so much more intimate and relaxing. Add on to that the fact that in a Charleston B&B you can surround yourself with the luxury of a beautifully furnished room, many of which date back over a century – with high ceilings, antique decor, and the best of southern hospitality.
