Welcome to the Devereaux Shields House Bed & Breakfast, our Queen Ann Victorian home located in beautiful Natchez, Mississippi - about 70 miles from Vicksburg, MS and within 90 minutes of Baton Rouge, LA. This B&B is listed on the National Historic Register for significant homes. Our Bed & Breakfast includes three properties, the elegant 1893 Queen Ann Victorian main house, and the charming 1873 Victorian Aunt Clara's Cottage.
The Devereaux Shields House now features 6 rooms, two beautifully appointed suite/rooms surrounded by carefully manicured gardens in the main house, and 4 spacious rooms in the cottage with heart pine floors and large veranda.
Colonel and Ms. Devereaux Shields who are believed to have built the Queen Ann Victorian-style home in Natchez, MS between 1893 and 1900. Colonel Shields was a veteran and hero for his exploits in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War in the late 19th Century. Our homes are just a few blocks from the 200-foot-high Natchez Bluffs, which offers a stunning view of the Mississippi River for several miles in both directions. |
