SET BESIDE Albemarle Sound, it was
the first capital of the providence of North Carolina.
Edenton was also home to many Revolutionary patriots -
as well as the haunt of the infamous pirate Blackbeard.
You’ll want to stroll along our shady streets past
handsome period homes and historic landmarks. The inn is
located at the heart of the Historic District, and the
center of town, with its irresistible boutiques,
antiques shops, and fine restaurants, is just a block
away.
There is so much to do here! You can arrange fishing
and sailing trips at the docks, only two blocks from the
inn. The Visitors Center offers
exhibits and guided walking and trolley tours.
For an
leisurely
daytrip, head for the beaches of the Outer Banks, the
nearby historic plantations, or our gentle country roads
just right for biking. There’s musical theatre in
the evening, as well as the famous Lost Colony outdoor
drama, just a short drive away.
We will
be happy to help you plan sightseeing and dining
throughout this beautiful and storied corner of North
Carolina. Come fill your days with a flurry of fun
activities, or simply stay here, unwind, and read a good
book on the porch
