Washington Plantation Bed and Breakfast

Site Search:

This fine old bed and breakfast inn (one of our guests, from Ireland, said "It's more like a
boutique hotel!") should be your home base as you explore beautiful and historic
Washington, Georgia. It began life in 1828 as a two over two plain-style farmhouse.
Over the years, as the prosperity of Washington, Georgia, and the home’s owners, waxed
and waned, the house grew into its present superb example of Greek Revival
architecture.
The seven acres of grounds, planted with magnolias, immense oaks, dogwood, pecan,
hickory, elm, camellias and crape myrtle, have served as the backdrop of Southern
history. Both Union and Confederate armies camped here in 1865. The beauty and
tranquility of the land, and the house’s setting at the top of a gentle knoll where the
breeze always blows, stand as testimony to the eye of Daniel Chandler, the first builder at
Washington Plantation.
Our Rooms:
Washington Plantation offers five spacious and luxurious bedrooms each with a private
bath, individually controlled heating and air conditioning, and original heart pine floors
with fine oriental rugs. Each room has a gas log fireplace or coal grate, cable television
and free wireless internet access. All of the bedrooms have a writing desk and sitting
area with silver wine and ice buckets, Irish crystal and silver goblets. Brass and crystal
chandeliers are rheostat-controlled to allow you to set the mood.
Bathroom amenities include bayberry and glycerin soaps, bath salts, bubble bath,
shower gel, hand and body lotion, rubber duckies, luxurious spa robes and slippers,
lighted magnifying vanity mirrors and Egyptian cotton towels.
Bedding consists of pillow-top mattresses, 1000-count Egyptian cotton sheets, and pure
hypoallergenic down pillows, duvets and comforters.
Even though all rooms share the same high level of luxury, each is different in tone and
feeling. The rooms are named, with one exception, for members of our family, and the
decoration and furnishing reflect the taste and style of the individual.
Abigail's Room has soft mint-green walls with lavish darker gray-green drapes with
white sheers and floral tops, and a white bead board ceiling. A hand-made queen four-
poster rice bed, a period spinet desk and Queen Anne highboy are the major furniture
pieces, lit by a pewter chandelier. Occasional tables hold the wine and ice buckets, and
there is a Cambridge SoundResearch radio/ cd player. A tiled oversized shower and
toilet are separate from the vanity area, which is in an alcove open to the room. Abigail's
Room will accommodate a third person. Abigail's Room is $170 per night.
Amity's Room is painted a buttery gold with a natural bead board ceiling. This is our
Eastlake room, with a hand-carved oak queen-sized bed, two oak dressers and a dark
pine tilt-top desk from the 1880s. The window treatments consist of moiré gold drapes
with fanciful fringed plaid valances. The brass chandelier and the Bose Wave radio add
to the ambience. The large bathroom features a vintage clawfoot tub with brass shower
surround and sunflower showerhead and a well-lit vanity table. Amity's Room will
accommodate a third person. Amity's Room is $150 per night.
Katie's Room is painted in a pale blue that changes with the ambient light. The drapes
are white cotton eyelet lace, echoed in the bedspread and bed ruffle on the four-poster
queen rice bed. Two period dressers and occasional tables grace the room and carry the
Bose Wave radio and wine and ice buckets. The bath has a vintage clawfoot tub with
brass shower surround and sunflower showerhead. Katie's Room is $150 per
night.
Martha's Room, located downstairs, is colored in dusty rose with matching draperies
and burgundy valances, and is the second largest in the house. The king-sized four-
poster rice bed, vintage highboy and gracious sitting area before the fireplace make this
room special. The tiled bathroom has a vintage clawfoot tub with shower surround and
sunflower shower head. The Cambridge SoundResearch radio/cd player and brass
chandelier complete the ambience. Martha's Room will accommodate a third person.
Martha's Room is $195 per
The Planter's Room is the master bedroom of Washington Plantation, and is the largest
and most elegant of all. Wallpapered in toile with matching drapes, the effect is luxurious
and inviting. The king-sized full tester bed has lace bed curtains and a ceiling-
suspended canopy straight from the 1840s. The beautiful brass chandelier with lead
crystal bobeshes casts a wonderful glow. The bathroom is large, with an old marble
counter top and a beautiful drop-in sink. The bathtub is a clawfoot style 72" whirlpool bath
with hot air bubbles and room for two, with a brass shower enclosure and sunflower
showerhead. This room is the best of the South. The Planter's Room is $220 per night.

truly special, including a wedding cake, flowers, special private wedding dinner, or
almost anything else you might desire. Prices start at our normal room rates, plus the
