One of my very favorite things when traveling is breakfast in the dining room — especially when it’s included, as it is here at The Fearrington House. At home, I rarely take the time. But when I travel, I make it a ritual — a quiet, unhurried start to the day that feels indulgent in the very best way.
When you stay with us, breakfast begins simply and beautifully. Perhaps a cup of our Fearrington Breakfast Tea, blended especially for us by Harney & Sons — rich and strong, perfect for greeting the morning. Or, for coffee lovers, enjoy a cup brewed from beans roasted right here on property.
Freshly baked pastries arrive at the table, along with a bright little smoothie shot to awaken the senses. The menu offers all the favorites, but I must admit — I almost always choose the Eggs Benedict. It’s something I would never make for myself at home, which makes it feel all the more special.
There is something magical about enjoying breakfast while looking out over the gardens in the soft morning light. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the baby rabbits that live in the knot garden, darting through the greenery.
This summer, come stay with us and make breakfast part of your own ritual — a slow, lovely beginning to a day in the Village.
