Winter is Upon Us at Hill House Bed & Breakfast in Asheville

Thank you for taking time to read our Hill House Bed & Breakfast Blog -- it was just launched the first week of December so you are among the first to view it.

And in honor of our inaugural Blog post, here in Asheville North Carolina, we are having our first snow of the year! So far just a light dusting, but it's covering the branches of the trees and looks beautiful. The snow was just beginning to fall while we served our breakfast this morning and all guests enjoyed the winter scenery.

We have finished all the decorating for Christmas, both outside and inside the Inn. As you approach the Inn, the white lights frame the front entry. The tree inside the parlor is gorgeous and everyone enjoys that warm cozy feel in front of the fireplace. Luckily the outside decorations were put up during a nice balmy day this past week. Temperatures can change quickly here in the mountains of Asheville.

With winter approaching, we have been busy 'tightening up' this old 1885 Inn. We got some major projects done ahead of schedule to help make the Inn even more comfortable and warm with some energy saving projects. We've replaced all the windows and door in the foyer with argon filled double-pane insulated windows, and installed new energy efficient honeycomb blinds in the parlor. Not only do they look great, it has really made a noticeable difference in maintaining a consistent temperature in those areas of the Inn. Now everyone will get to enjoy these benefits all winter long!
