“Amazing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

South Court Inn is gorgeous. Tom and Anita worked on improving the house for years to make it the perfect couple getaway, and it really shows. Breakfast was very unique; they try hard and succeed in giving you memorable meals that you can't have anywhere else. I also think that because it's a couples' destination, Tom tries to give couples their space while being available to answer questions. Any questions we had were answered very thoroughly, and we very much enjoyed the privacy we had as well. Also, in several places we went in town, we learned of the innkeepers' involvement in local charities, which is a quality I personally appreciate. Overall, it was lovely!

“Our stay at South Court.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

person found this review helpful

South Court Inn is where we spent our honey moon as we bought the honey moon package. The grounds were nicely kept up, the inside of the house was beautiful and our room was some what Victorian style. Filled with snacks and the roses were a nice touch. The food we had was a little different than I'm use to but my wife enjoyed breakfast. The only problem I had at South Court was the owner Tom Pott - not hospitable nor a people person. We felt unwelcome from the moment we arrived to the day we left.

We expected a cordial reception as his guests but didn't. My wife felt so uncomfortable at times she dreaded leaving our room or returning to the Inn. He just appeared to be in a bad mood and later an his demeanor was somewhat pleasant but seemed forced. The way he talked to us his quests was like he was better than us and spoke to us as if we were children and we are in our 30's. The massages were the most horrible we had ever experienced my wife was in some pain weeks afterwards. The town, shops and restaurants in and area the Luray area had a delightful ambiance but he made our stay anything but welcomed. This is why my family will not be returning to South Court Inn. If you stay I hope you have a different experience perhaps stay in the cottage out back or don't attending breakfast.

Room Tip: The cottage or the largest of rooms downstairs is the best.The less interaction you have with the ow...

Anita and I are devastated that a couple came into our home to celebrate their honeymoon, felt neglected and treated like children, felt fed food they would not otherwise eat, suffered anxiety at even the prospect of coming out of their room and left without a word to us about their experience or giving us the opportunity to turn things around while they were here. We are deeply apologetic. We apologize for each and every slight they felt they received while under our roof or on our property. Although we cannot find a reservation for any of our honeymoon getaways not associated with getting married here in Nov 2011, we extend abject apologies for whatever they feel were our shortcomings whenever they visited and extend to them our very best wishes for a long and successful marriage. May blessings rain on them as they move forward in their lives together! With deep apologies and very best wishes, Tom

“Perfect!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

I eloped here and they absolutely went out of their way to make our day so special. They were so great ever that they moved the wedding outside due to the really nice weather! I could not have asked for a more perfect day!

“Thank you, Tom & Anita...it was a perfect private ceremony!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

person found this review helpful

My husband and I were married by Tom 12/30/2011 and it was the perfect little wedding. We wanted a private ceremony between the two of us and this fit the bill and then some. I couln't stop smiling through the whole thing! The proprietors were efficient, friendly, helpfull and we had a great time. The atmosphere, decorations, flowers, photos, cake, and other amenities were fantastic. We even had our "official marriage" certificate in hand the same day. I am confident we will return someday soon. The hosue and surrounding area is so beautiful. By the way, folks, Tom is a fabulous cook. L-U-C-K-Y, Anita, right?

“Hidden Gem in Luray”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

We chose the South Court Inn to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. This was our first stay at a bed and breakfast, and boy were we spoiled! The Potts Family made our stay so special. They are very caring people. The food was scrumptious! Our room was lovely! Did I mention the food? Yummy! We will definitely return again.
