A Lot of Privacy, Please

Gated and secured with close to 1.5 acres of land surrounding the estate, outdoor space is a featured amenity of this gorgeous property.
Safety is the New Luxury
Committing to a vacation during a pandemic involves some risk. More and more travelers are prioritizing locations and venues based upon a risk-benefit calculus where “private and secluded” leads to bookings. Christian Wright, in The Wall Street Journal recently wrote that the current climate has made “extroverts into agoraphobes” and hence rental of entire hotels “has begun to seem…strangely sensible.”*
That’s right, rental of the entire hotel.
With rates of infection spiking in certain areas and growing concerns about a second wave, travelers willing to take the plunge want a safe sanctuary and are willing to pay for it. Hoteliers are getting in line and modifying packages in order to meet this demand. You no longer have to be independently wealthy or have royal connections to book the whole house. “It’s no wonder travelers are seeking the heightened control that so-called private travel affords,” notes Wright*.
The Bunn House, in the mountains of Asheville, NC is well-positioned to offer a safe sanctuary for guests that place a premium on privacy. The six-room inn is located within two city blocks from downtown Asheville, a bustling epicenter of culinary talent and home to multiple James Beard-nominated chefs. Gated and secured with close to 1.5 acres of land surrounding the estate, outdoor space is a featured amenity of this gorgeous property.
A Hotel of Your Own
The WSJ article continues, “Imagine you, your family and six of your best friends engaged in a hotel takeover – no rotten kids (other than your own), no tipsy bridesmaids, no unknown Speedos in the pool, no wait for the Peloton. Social distancing on tap.” Recommended by Food and Wine**, the Bunn House offers this in spades, noting “self check-in in a 1905 home in the heart of Asheville. The first-floor suite includes a full kitchen. Take a brew up to the roof deck at sunset.”
We are pleased to offer rental of the entire house. The Bunn House is the perfect setting for gatherings of close friends, offering enough space for privacy and separation, while at the same time providing guests with the opportunity to come together as a group in an intimate setting.
Imagine your group of six couples spending the day immersing yourselves in one of the many outdoor activities that the North Carolina mountains has to offer, then returning to your luxurious guest room with en suite bathroom and steam shower for a restorative spa-like experience.
Meet for drinks and appetizers on the rooftop terrace for sunset and take in the 360 degree views of the surrounding mountains with commanding views of downtown Asheville. We are located only two blocks from downtown, making it easy for your group to walk to one of the many award-winning restaurants. Or do you have a gourmet chef among you? Retreat to the full kitchen for food prep, where with a little planning, you pull off an amazing dinner enjoyed under the stars for an evening no one will soon forget. Celebrating life and creating memories that last a lifetime - that is what the Bunn House offers.
