The staff were wonderful. Breakfast was lovely. Love the room, tho it seemed like it hadn’t been used in a while. The jacuzzi tub didn’t work but worked as a regular tub, nonetheless. Parking was not good.

The reason for not having 5 stars is parking. Only 2 parking spots to be used on the street. The driveway on the property only has room for 2 cars. The place has 4 guest rooms. We had to park behind someone, but was asked several times to move & let them out. Or we had to keep checking to see if one of the 2 spots was vacant on the street.

When booking I thought parking was available. I think that was not made clear.

Overall, I would & plan to book again.

Thanks Deauveraux Shields House

Room was basically clean but vent was very fuzzy above bed. I have respiratory allergies. Staff was helpful and pleasant. Breakfast was delicious both mornings. Parking on site is tight and we had to have the staff get another guest to move their car to leave the first am. We opted to park on the street after that.

We stayed in the Robert suite and it was perfect for our group of 3 ladies. The house was very quiet, neat and clean. It was conveniently located to most of our activities and was close to everything we had planned. We were served breakfast daily at the cottage just a few houses down from us and let me tell you, Mrs. Lillian was amazing!! The food and company of the other guests was awesome. Our host also provided a wine & cheese, get to know each other event that was nice. I would definitely recommend this Bed and Breakfast and if we get back to Natchez, we will stay here again.

This place is a treasure! We stayed in the next door property owned by the same people and both homes are so charming! The rooms were all quite big and they even gave us the room that adjoined another! Everything was clean and well organized.The bed was very comfortable and everything was just so thoughtfully designed. Eleanor and Ron were perfect hosts. If you have the chance, this place is worth the visit. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Don’t skip Natchez, but do skip this Bed&Breakfast

We did not like this hotel/B&B
The reasons:
-upon arrival, we were overcharged $108 under the excuse that Expedia/Booking did not cover for the extra 2 people in the room. Of course, my booking included the 2 extra persons.
-the place seemed very dusty. My daughter had an asthma attack immediately she entered the room.
-the whole cottage is dark and cluttered with old stuff in bad condition
-the water out of fawcets is oily and slimy. Disgusting!
Personally I would avoid this cottage altogether. Nevertheless, Natchez is a lovely place to visit.

The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful and, overall, we enjoyed our short stay. However, although we had arranged a late check-in, it took a long time for someone to answer the door, and no one answered the phone (which was worrisome). I did not like the breakfast casserole, which was the only option.

Thank you everyone for your hospitality!

We stayed at Aunt Clara's which was very nice. Our room and bath were spacious, clean and decorated in a Victorian style.
The breakfast was good and service was excellent. We were directed to a great tour of the Natchez area.
My only criticism is our arrival experience. We were called by staff while driving for our approximate arrival time. We arrived at that time and no one answered the door or phone for about 20 to 30 minutes. It was very disturbing to have that experience upon arrival. Once we were in though Elenor gave us good recommendations for dinner. Ron checked in throughout our stay. I would return.
