Book excerpt: A decandent meal by the flicker of candlelight, a private terrace awash in sea breezes, the radiant warmth of a wood-burning stove...the magical ingredients of a perfect romantic escape. From Old Drovers Inn in New York to Little Palm Island in Florida, the authors have selected the most idyllic hideaways in the Middle Atlantic and South Eastern states, visiting each one personally to ensure no detail is left to chance. The fifty-two inns, hotels, and bed-and-breakfasts included here each have their own distinct personality, ranging from a rustic coveside home to a luxurious country manor. Each is described fully, with an emphasis on intimate rooms, working fireplaces, claw-foot bathtubs, first-rate dining rooms, and other special touches so you can plan your ideal getaway. Includes enchanting lodgings in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
