The Bed & Breakfast
Victorian Character, Made Comfortable for Today
South Court Inn reflects the era in which it was built, with Neo-Victorian decor, historic details, and a sense of bygone romance woven throughout the home. The result is a classic Virginia inn that feels elegant without feeling overly formal.
Guests are invited to settle in, slow down, and enjoy the quiet comforts of the property — from the spacious parlor and sunroom to the guest rooms, gardens, breakfast table, and outdoor gathering spaces.
Meet the Innkeepers
The Mountains are calling, and I must go.
In 2018, my husband Joe booked us a romantic getaway at the South Court Inn. We fell so in love with this Bed and Breakfast, the town of Luray and the Shenandoah, we continued to visit multiple times a year from our home in Alexandria. We were even married here in Luray so we could share this special place with our families and friends. In 2022, we had the opportunity to call the South Court Inn our home and were thrilled to become the new innkeepers.
I have had a passion for food and feeding people since I was a teenager learning how to cook in my aunt's kitchen. Her methods of using seasonal and local ingredients were passed down from generations of Italian mothers and grandmothers and they created dishes that told stories and always brought people together. My heritage growing up in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina gave southern roots to my interpretation of meals, and I have my father to thank for giving me a healthy appreciation for things such as apple butter, cornbread and grits.
Joe grew up playing in the woods near his home in Connecticut. His first job was mowing lawns for all the neighbors and he continues his love of being outside in many ways today. He is our resident meat smoker, hike navigator, handy man, and lawn professional.
We are two Army Veterans who have traveled the world and enjoy passing on our favorite travel experiences in our service and offerings at the South Court Inn. We spend a lot of our freetime up in the National Park and exploring new food and wine in the Shenandoah. This place has so many hidden treasures to find, and we are happy to help you plan your itineraries in the Shenandoah.
Enough about us, now we are ready to meet you and hear your story.
