Set
amid the rich historical backdrop of the 208 year-old plantation home
and the sites ancient magnolias,
Travellers Rest offers a distinctive location for couples to begin their
life together or to celebrate any special occasion. Wedding
ceremonies, receptions or special events may be held in our intimate
formal garden or the rustic warmth of our reproduction corn crib barn. The
beautiful grounds surrounding the barn and plantation home can accommodate
up to 300 guests outdoors, beneath the grand old magnolias. The historic
home itself, including the gallery porch, is not available for rentals,
but is a lovely backdrop for any type of outdoor event.
Our 1830’s Barn, with a Tennessee limestone fireplace as
its focal point, was designed with receptions in mind. Built in 1997, the Barn will
accommodate 125-150 guests and includes a full service kitchen your
caterer will enjoy. The décor is wonderfully simple with clean lines,
white walls, boxed columns and a clerestory - perfect for whatever
decorations you choose. New large restrooms are also located in the Barn
and, of course, this building is handicapped-accessible.
