Chinquapin Inn

Nestled in tall pines and silhouetted by the Blue Ridge Mountains, Chinquapin Inn is a cozy and hospitable bed and breakfast a five minute walk down the quiet road from Penland School of Crafts, one of America's oldest craft schools. The Inn offers a reasonably priced, rural retreat to both Penland students looking for quiet housing off-campus and visitors to the area who wish to hike, visit Penland, tour studios or read a book in a shady garden.
