In hindsight, when a couple of my emails (asking a question or two before our trip) were answered rather tersely, I should have known this was not the place for us. It advertised being children and pet friendly. We have both...and both are very well behaved so it sounded like a nice get-a-way, something different than a Days Inn. We... more

This was by far the best B & B we have stayed at. We stayed at another B & B in Asheville for our honeymoon 14 years ago and then went back several years in a row. Now that we are back in the area, we found The Blake House Inn. We will never again stay anywhere else when we... more

My husband and I spent our 13th wedding anniversary at the Blake House. We travel with our 2 small dogs because they are both getting old and we don't feel comfortable leaving them. The Rose Room has a separate outside entrance when makes it easy to go for walks. There is a lovely park nearby for longer walks. Breakfast was... more

We choose this B&B because we found out we could take our dogs, and thought it was a good idea. Next time I will leave them home. The owner lived outside the house, which is fine, except you NEVER saw her. She had a chef come in and cook, so it was more like a restaurant for breakfast, where I... more

Clean, beautifully decorated, lots of amenities that I did not expect in a bed and breakfast - flat screen tv, dvd, comfortable bed, great shower! I have stayed in many hotels and worked in resorts - this place was up there with the best of them in the bed and breakfast category even better than some of the nicer hotels.... more

What a lovely place! My husband and I were travelling with our dog and had a terrific experience at the Blake House Inn. We did a late check in and were delighted to find a basket of toys and a dog blanket in our room. We stayed in the very pretty Dogwood Room--what a comfortable bed! We slept very soundly... more

My sister and i just spent two nights at the 1847 Blake House Bed and Breakfast. We enjoyed it so much. Leslie is very efficient. She was so helpful when we asked questions. The place is old, but that added to the charm of it. We had our cat with us, and he loved the place, too. We felt safe... more

I stayed in the Blake House earlier this year, and had a wonderful time. I was very pleased with the look of the home, and found managment to be not only friendly, but very helpful. I liked that I was given a tour of the house once we arrived, and if you listened to the directions and information you could... more

In an area where almost EVERYONE is very gracious and welcoming, we were VERY disappointed in what could and should have been a lovely B & B stay. The "bed" part was acceptable as we were in the "Holly Room" (apparently the former owner's suite?). Whilst far from a Southern Living showcase, I would disagree with other reviewers calling the... more
