I just spent a fabulous reunion weekend here. Upon arrival, the front desk (Natalie) was amazing....like we had known each other for years! The rest of the staff was outgoing, helpful, friendly, and sincere. Made us feel immediately like we were in their lovely home! There is nothing pretentious or snooty about this place...from the morning hike to the cozy bar. Here is a place I would recommmend a thousand times!

We went as a couple, and enjoyed our 3 nite stay very much. The staff was incredible, warm, learned our names, and was always trying to help any way they could. The facilities were the cleanest we've ever seen, excellent housekeeping - from room to public areas, from grounds to spa, pool, and locker rooms. Not a stray piece of paper or dust to be found. The bedding in room 10/11 was soft and comfy, bottled water was plentiful, and the breakfast part of the B&B was exceptional. I had the best massage ever (hot stone). The two hikes in the morning were designed for two levels of ability and offered pretty terrain, good fitness, and knowledgeable guides who clearly love what they do. The exercise equipment was in top notch shape. The only caution is to ask before booking if there will be a large party. Remember, this is a historic house - so if an evening activity is underway, you will hear it in your room. But overall, this is a well-managed, well-trained, attention-to-detail place to stay.

I just stayed at Westglow and I loved it! It is so beautiful there and they run the place top notch. Every detail is taken care of and there are so many wonderful touches. The linens all smell so clean and fragrant. The spa is first class too, the fitness classes were great and the spa services were incredible and the staff are all so friendly and really go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome and they were extremely helpful.
The spa center is so beautiful too, especially the Relaxation Lounge. That room is gorgeous!
Rowland's served amazing food and it was all so beautiful. I can't say enough great things about this place, if you want luxury and impeccable service along with beautiful views and pampering this is your place. Well worth the money!

It was a first visit by my wife and I. The restoration of this 1917 mansion was done well and the furnishings/bedding are top notch. Service was exceptional as the professional, and friendly, staff anticipated every need. We never heard a sound anywhere after 10pm each night. We met the talented and gregarious founder, Ms. Valentine, while there and she remains a vital component of this finely tuned operation. The food is gourmet and ample. The message treatments were among best we've ever received and priced reasonably. Activities, including an expert and informative guided hike each morning, to different destinations, made the trip memorable. The views of the mountains from the rooms and property are arguably the best in NC. In an age of standardization of spas and hotel rooms, etc, the experience here is unique and must be reason for its recent #2 in world award by Travel and Leisure magazine. It is near higher end of tariff scale but, because staff to guest ratio is so favorable (and rare), would recommend to everyone who can afford it.
