My husband and I have been going to Bayberry for about 5 years now. First I brought my mother, then my sister and then finally my husband. My husband swore he would never go to a B&B. Well ,one time at Bayberry Inn with Dave & Bonnie and he's been hooked ever since.
We went to a few B&B's before the Bayberry and never really felt comfortable. The people weren't as friendly, or inviting. The food was average. Then I found the Bayberry. The best part about Bayberry Inn is you feel almost like one of the family. Their Victorian B&B is immaculate and the rooms are beautiful and decorated so eloquently.
Bonnie & Dave themselves are the most friendly, interesting, helpful people you will ever meet. Whether you want to be just left alone, or you want to have conversation and/or find out where the best place to eat is or the best entertainment, they know it all. It's also interesting listening to where they purchased and had all their furniture made. Each piece has a story behind it.
I have yet to stay in every room and am still working on it. Yet, I have my favorites and always try for them first. The breakfast is always delicious and plentiful. Home cooked by either Dave or Bonnie you never know what the surprise is but it's always very good and served with a beautiful presentation. And of course, the conversation at breakfast is always plentiful whether you want to just listen to the stories or join and tell your own.
We go at least twice a year because we never miss the fall & spring craft shows. We've also been there at Christmas time and it is amazingly decorated! During the summer, there is always lemonade or ice tea and cookies waiting for you on the covered porch when you get back from the beach. Never have we felt so quite at home then when we go to the Bayberry Inn with Bonnie & Dave Konya.
We have just returned for the first time from their newly purchased B&B in Lancaster. It's called the Countryhearth B&B. It is quite different then Bayberry. It's over 100 years old and very much colonial style rather then Victorian like the Bayberry. But again, we felt so much at home with Bonnie and Dave and of course they guided us to the best places to shop and the best places for dinner. The rooms were absolutely beautiful!
We've already booked our reservations for the Bayberry Inn for the May craft show. If you don't get it now - you won't get it at all, they book up fast! I have recommended the Bayberry to many people and all have come back saying they loved it and would like to return and many have. I hope I have helped anyone who is looking for a beautiful, relaxing B&B. This one is truly a gem. Enjoy!
