Folkestone Inn

Tranquility, lap cat Jerry, old house charm, incredible breakfasts with fresh fruit, eggs and ham, proximity to amazing hiking trails in the Smoky mt park. All of these made for a rejuvenating 3 days. We needed to calm down after evacuating our retreat near Little Switzerland due to wildfires last week. We swapped that retreat for Folkestone Inn. I enjoyed this one more. And we will return!! Thanks Toni for your hospitality and wonderful food!

Excellent, comfortable and homelike place to stay near Bryson City. The location is excellent and very close to Bryson city, two national parks entrances and a short drive to the ****** and a nice walkable city(Sylva). The room was very comfortable and the bed was amazing as well. We loved the breakfast and it was different each of the 3 days we stayed. Afternoon cookies and tea were a nice treat to look forward too as well. There is a very sweet and affectionate cat named Cherry that lives at the inn(outdoors) that loves to be pet. Lots of chickens live at the Deviled Egg Inn on the property and supply the delicious eggs for breakfast. There is a farm right next door that has horses and cows which are beautiful to watch from the porch or through the window as you eat breakfast. There is also a small “game room” with a ton of board games and also plenty of books throughout the inn for a quick read. It was a great experience and would definitely come back again.

We stayed in the Carson Farmhouse. Beautiful room and very comfortable. Enjoyed playing cards in the dining room in the evenings after returning from our daily adventures. The breakfasts were amazing and the hospitality of our hosts made this a very pleasant trip. We will definitely return here if we are ever back in this area.

Perfect location nestled in a quiet hill slope, accessible to downtown Bryson City within five minutes' drive. Clean and nicely decorated train-themed room, well treated to delicious hot breakfast prepared by Scott and Toni in the morning before setting off to the mountains. Will be back. Highly recommended.

This is the place if you want to get away. So peaceful and quiet. Sit on the inviting and relaxing front porch to have your morning coffee. We slept in the boats and paddles room with a very comfortable king bed, bathroom had a clawfoot tub with shower. We also had a small porch off our room, great little spot to read a book. The breakfast each morning was fabulous!! Best breakfast we've every had. The lemon pancakes were our favorite of the 3 days, and I don't eat a lot of lemon anything. The Bed and Breakfast is so close to hiking/walking trails and downtown Bryson City. We give Toni and Scott Folkestone Inn 5 stars. Hope to go back in the future.

The Inn was clean, comfortable and welcoming. Breakfast was delicious. After a morning of hiking the Deep Creek waterfall loop and visiting downtown Bryson City in the afternoon, this was the perfect evening spot convenient to both areas.
