Your home away from home. Live in the city and tired of the traffic and busy life? Are you working in the Shelby area, visiting a student at Gardner Webb University, attending a wedding or family function? Give up that cramped motel room and come on down to Nell's Farm House.
One of the best locations in Shelby! Located on a quiet, tree-lined street just outside of town, this super-comfortable, spotlessly clean, quiet, country cottage is in a historic community on a farm that has been in the family for over 100 years. The house is furnished in a vintage style to reflect the history of Nell and her family, with an emphasis on comfort. Nell's Farm House is intimate and informal.
Nell's Farm House lets you escape the day-to-day rat race and provides you with a memorable country experience. You can relax on the porch, nap the afternoon away. Here is a place to sit back and relax while watching the horses graze in surrounding meadows. The nights are peaceful with only the sound of nature and the light of the stars. The days are opportunities for hiking, exploring, fishing, or just relaxing.
GUEST INFORMATION: Is it time to get back in touch with what life was like in a gentler and quieter time.
Nell's Farm House is your place to be when visiting Shelby, North Carolina, for business, pleasure, American Legion World Series Baseball, Gardner Webb University, Tryon International Equestrian Center, Cleveland County Fair, or when passing through Cleveland County for one of our many events.
While suitable for any traveler, the home is perfect for families who need affordable, flexible, and friendly lodging. The home consists of two nice-size bedrooms with 1 king bed and 1 double bed and the third bedroom with bunk beds for the children and a crib for the baby. 400-thread-count linens are provided for most beds. There is a television with basic cable in the cozy den. The eat-in kitchen contains all cookware, utensils, and kitchenware, and all linens and towels are supplied. There is a large, centrally located bath with double vanity and tub with shower.
However, the greatest amenities are outside the home as it is situated on a quiet road in a quiet community with a deck off the kitchen, presenting pictorial views of the woods and surrounding pastures.
Perhaps one of the best features is the private deck, overlooking the pasture, which provides outdoor living and dining area to take advantage of Shelby's wonderful climate, whether for breakfast in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. You will also enjoy the gas grill in the evening as you watch horses, deer and listen to the Katydid singing in the woods.
You will feel safe and secure, with a burglar alarm and code set just for you.
