Very quiet, clean and peaceful. Burnsville is a great location to launch to Asheville destinations, Little Switzerland, Blue Ridge Parkway, Hot Springs, Boone, Weaverville, Linville, etc. Its an oasis really, a small town with great little shops, great restaurants, and great daytrips. A stay at this B&B is perfect place to relax after darting off on any local adventure. Great breakfast with a very personal touch. I was even served tea in a real teapot with all the "fixins". The only other place that offered that kevel of detail in my experience was The Martha Washington in Abingdon. This little B&B does it right. Thank you fir a wonderful stay!
