The Middleton Family B&B is unlike any other property in Charleston. The Middletons occupy the main house, constructed by an ancestor, while guests can rent the one-bedroom or two-bedroom guest houses in the rear courtyard.

My wife and I stayed in the quaint one-bedroom cottage thought to have been built around 1750! It is very "old Charleston" and was perfect for our anniversary weekend getaway.

The cottage is not fancy at all but is very old and historic.

Unlike other B&B's, the Middletons stock a small fridge with a variety of breakfast staples and you make your own breakfast whenever you like in the cottage. As we wanted to sleep in some, this was a ideal for us.

Although the property is not crystal chandeliers and fine china type of experience, it is wonderful to stay on the property of a native Charleston family in such a historic property. more
