The Edgeworth Inn

The University of the South in Sewanee is just six miles away from the village. You will find charming antebellum homes surrounding the campus, which is worth visiting in of itself. The centuries-old stone buildings on the campus seem to transport you to Cambridge or Oxford. The University has one of the finest libraries in the Southeast, and a music program that rivals Juliard and Oberlin. The frequent and varied concerts at Sewanee are world-class events; during your stay you may even have the opportunity to enjoy the debut performance of a violin concerto, a faculty brass recital or a jazz band in full swing.

Once you have experienced the calm of this locale, you will never want to leave it behind. There are a number of antique shops in the area for the many people who want a reminder of the Victorian era in their homes.
