Steeped in tradition, the Wentworth Mansion offers guests a glimpse of Charleston’s Gilded Age. Once a private home, this stunning mansion in the city’s historic center has visitors swooning over its exquisite details. Hand-carved marble fireplaces, ornate plasterwork, Tiffany stained-glass windows, and tile floors reflect the elegance of a bygone era. The guest rooms offer a taste of the good life, with patrician furnishings, gas fireplaces, and charming views. The public rooms are glorious, and guests often roam from room to room enjoying the resplendent settings. The sun porch hosts a bountiful European breakfast each morning, and the Rodgers Library calls for a good read or a snifter of brandy. Visitors in the know are sure to book a table at the inn’s restaurant (circa 1886). Nestled in the gardens behind the mansion, this white glove establishment tantalizes the palate with its sensational creations and dazzles the eye with its refined setting.
