Farm to Table Gourmet is an understatement. The Folkestone Inn has long been known for its delicious breakfasts. Now the mornings are even more scrumptious. The Folkestone Inn began in the early '20s as a rural farmhouse surrounded by cornfields, gardens and pastures. Today, much of that farmstead feelings remains. The garden provides fresh herbs and veggies for the legendary farm-to-table breakfast. The beloved flock of hens provide the kitchen with the freshest eggs. The cornfield is now a sprawling front lawn with plenty of room to chase frisbees or do your morning yoga. Closer to the house, local craftsman homemade chairs surround a fire pit that comes life many evenings. From downtown Bryson City going to the Folkestone Bed & Breakfast Inn you will pass the passenger, on and off ramp, for the Great Smokys Railroad. The Great Smokys Railroad has 53 miles of track with two tunnels and 25 bridges. This is a major tourist destination in Western North Carolinan for adults and children of all ages and and ideal for families.
