Johannes made our stay very comfortable and truely relaxing. We went for an hour hike the first day of our stay on the vast... More

I am a richer person for visiting Kilburnie. Who would have thought that such a gem would be nestled in Lancaster, SC? This is a destination worth going to. Full of history, warm, caring hospitality, great food, and a truly wonderful historical setting. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly by Johannes Tromp, the kind owner and innkeeper. He gave...

Love this bed and breakfast! Johannes is an incredible host. We loved hearing about his history as well as the history of this lovely home. My daughter and I were on a road trip to check out colleges and after a looooong day on the road, what a restful haven we found at Kilburnie!! Our third floor walk up suite... More

Last night I had the awesome pleasure of spending the night at Kilburnie, the Inn at Craig Farm. I wish I was still there sitting on the upstairs porch rocking contentedly as I did last evening. Johannes is a most fantastic host, who will go out of his way to make you completely happy and comfortable. He has done a... More

Johannes is a marvelously welcoming and thoughtful host. He was able to accommodate my dietary needs without any complaint (I am vegan). The house is full of amazing antique finds; everything has a story behind it, and Johannes will gladly tell you the history behind it all. It's very tastefully decorated, not in the overly stuffy style of many B&Bs.... More

Our daughter picked this extraordinary Inn for our Christmas visit with our son who lives in Charlotte, NC. She and my son-in-law stayed in the beautifully appointed Davie room on the Inn's second floor while my wife and I took the spacious third floor James walk up suite. What a great find! For four wonderful days we lived a dream.... More

I stay here every year with my daughter while we Christmas shop in Charlotte. Everything about this B&B is perfect. It is spotless, beautifully appointed, and comfortable. The breakfast is perfect & the host is friendly. You will love the gas fireplaces, the movies & frig with drinks & especially the jetted air tub so big you could swim in... More

Kilburnie is a place where thoughts and peace can come together -- the location and quietness are almost impossible to imagine until you actually arrive; it's blissful, and wonderfully enhanced by Johannes Tromp. Kilburnie Inn and all of the surrounding area are definitely the fruition of the dreams of a visionary man and allows a person to return to regular... More

We've love staying at The Kilburnie. It's quiet, very clean, relaxing, and less than an hour from Charlotte. Johannes stirs up great breakfasts and wonderful conversation. We will return!

My wife and I stayed overnight just for a getaway weekend. Although it was a short excursion, we felt pampered the entire time. The inn is very clean and beautifully decorated and the grounds are gorgeous. Johannes was a tremendous host and even though we live only 30 minutes away we will definitely be back to this relaxing and beautiful... More
