Dunham Farms
 |
| Palmyra Barn A 1930's farm barn now restored into a Bed and Breakfast and very charming |
Our daughter and son-in-law gave us a two night stay at a bed and breakfast for Christmas and we thought it would be a perfect time to use the gift during our anniversary week. We had a lovely relaxing time and the hospitality was superb. Dunham Farms is actually several old plantations which has a total of 6,000 acres. The land has been in the same family for eight generations beginning with land deeded from King George I. Some of the land follows the inlet waters along the Georgia coast. We have really enjoyed the time together in this quiet peaceful setting.

| Our hostess horse. He is a sweetheart. |
Our room was very spacious and looked out to the inlet and majestic oaks.
The dining room was inviting.
The lovely table settings and linens made you feel special but not too
fussy to feel uncomfortable.
Breakfast offered delicious gourmet food and was a wonderful and relaxing
dining experience to start the day

| There were two groupings of sitting arrangements |
This is the hallway that was formally the walk way
between the animals stalls when it was a barn.

| Majestic Oaks grace the grounds. These oaks must be over 300 years old. The photo didn't capture the span of the branches. They are just beautiful!. |
 |
| Our hostess said that there is a saying that White Oaks -- Grow for 100 years, Live for 100 years, Die for 100 years |

| This is the original site of the plantation home. (Restored to the original ) It is now used during the summer by the owner. She doesn't go very far (just a few feet from her main home) but it is her get-a-way to devote to her writings. |
We had a very nice time. Thanks to our wonderful daughter and son-in-law.
