Guest Bedrooms
The Magnolia Guest Room is an "Old South" themed room, in greens
and gold. The original 1895 fireplace mantel has grey tiles, imported from
Italy, with a Fleur-de-lis emblem embossed in them. The oversized bathroom
has a claw foot tub with shower and a pedestal lavatory.
In the Old South land, where cotton was king, the days were sultry and taxing.
But with refrigerated air, the hard edge of this beautiful country is eased,
leaving a relaxed calm, and a courtly splendor. Amid the golden sunshine in
this room, you embrace more of your own southern charm. Reading a favorite
tale, you may find that what was once gone with the wind, is here again for
you to savor, pampering the evening with pleasure.
The Lone Star Bedroom is red, white and blue, a rodeo/western
themed room featuring a custom wrought-iron bed and barnwood furnishings all
with the Texas lone star. The room has a claw foot tub open in the room (ranch-style,
curtained in blue jeans) with a separate toilet room. The original 1895 fireplace
mantel, stained the darkest shade of the 7 fireplaces in the house, anchors
the southwest corner of the guest room.
At the east front of the house and at the top of the second-floor stairs, is
a wild west hoedown. Celebrating the American west, Texas rodeo plays a large
part of the scene. Teresa's father was a bull rider on the pro rodeo circuit
in the 1950's, and the room features some of his photos. Drop your spurs, pull
off your chaps and hang up your hat. Welcome Pardner!
The Cottage Garden offers Shabby Chic pastels which make for
a romantic and ethereal experience. The bedroom has a private bathroom with
tub and shower, as well as a small sitting room. The armoire on the east wall
is a lovely old work of art, a vintage piece from previous owners.
On the west end of the Tarlton House, pampering pink hugs the walls, adorned
with quality antique quilts. This is your place to feel comfortable and classy.
Relax in your room at the inn, write a note at the desk, or peruse the Victorian
magazine. This room just feels really good!
The Seaside Guest Room ceilings are 12 feet high. The original
1895 fireplace mantel is surrounded by muted blues with vintage and designer
seafaring memorabilia. The private bathroom has a double-size shower with an
oversized showerhead.
Down by the sea, the salt air was fresh and breezy, the afternoon sailing, balmy
and brisk. Now you can relax in your room at the inn, still sensing the gentle
wafting of the waves and hearing the soothing water lapping on the sides.
Resting in your adirondack chair while reading one of your favorite novels,
you can savor the evening with pleasure.
