Devereux shields House was charming, elegant and beautifully furnished, to the last detail. The accomoodations were really comfortable - great beds, great decor, and luxurious toiletries. Ron and Eleanor are the greatest hosts; helpful with suggestions, directions and any other information to make your stay comfortable. Breakfast was the best, and served in royal style. Great food, too! I snapped... More

While traveling with our Cocker Spaniel, Pearl, we stayed two nights at Devereaux Shields. As specified in our email confirmation, I called on the afternoon of our arrival to inform the host, Eleanor, that we would be arriving after the 6:00 p.m. check-in deadline, lest we be assessed a "late check-in fee". We arrived at 7:45 p.m., and I was... More

Since my wife's family is from Natchez, we have visited here many times. This was the first time that we had stayed at a B&B. We chose the Devereaux Shields House due to the many fine reviews on TripAdvisor. We couldn't have been happier with our choice. We stayed at Aunt Clara's Cottage which is a few doors down and...

After our long bike ride of 440 miles from Franklin, TN to Natchez, the Deveraux Shields house was such a welcome site. We felt pampered to the very max. The bed was a beautiful high bed that I had to use a stool to get up on. But I felt like the princess and the pea on it. Our Inn... More

We actually stayed in Aunt Clara's Cottage just down the street from Devereaux Shields but owned by Nancy and Ron. Aunt Clara's was very charming. The room was large and very clean and had a very nice bathroom. Nancy and Ron were very charming and hospitable and the breakfasts were wonderful. We were a little concerned at first because we...

Everything you would expect from a top class B&B in a historic house - stayed in Victoria room at Aunt Clara's cottage which was delightfully furnished. From the welcoming drink when we arrived, to the tour of Ron's model railway before we left, the whole experience was exceptional. Breakfast was a high spot, as others have noted and a special...

Our family of 4 was so happy to find accomodations in Natchez at a Bed and Breakfast that allowed us to stay together in one room. Our girls aged 13 and 9 loved the antiques and the 4-poster canopy bed in Aunt Clara's Cottage which is just down the street from the main house. Our hosts were so nice and... More

We found Devereaux Shields on the internet and wasn't sure what to expect. Although the pictures were beautiful they didn't do justice to the charm and beauty of Devereaux Shields. As we drove up to the house, there were candles glowing in all the windows to welcome us. The grounds were emaculate with beautiful landscaping and the peaceful sounds of... More

The Devereaux Shields B&B has 2 properties on the same block and we stayed at the cottage. We checked into the main house and the owner, Ron (a retired rocket scientist), was informative and helpful and took us for a tour of the upstairs of the main house - it was chuck full of wonderful furniture you would expect in...

Our room was spacious and well appointed. We had a nice breakfast the next morning and met lively charming people who gave us some good travel tips about sites to see. They particularly recommended visiting Longwood and we agree.
