Southall Farm & Inn

Immediately upon arrival at Southall we were met with exceptional service that continued for the duration of our stay. Both restaurants were incredible, as well as the option to have food and drinks delivered directly to your room. We ordered the lamb lettuce wraps multiple times, as well as the burger, both from Sojourner. Our couples massage was amazing and both therapists were incredibly thoughtful and comforting. It was both of our first times getting a massage and both therapists walked us through each step of the massage. The amenities in the spa were all wonderful, especially the heated mineral pool overlooking the lake. We spent several hours relaxing in the spa and left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. We also visited the speakeasy where had delicious espresso martinis and enjoyed the live music and ambience. Overall, we could not have enjoyed our stay more and did not want to leave! Definitely will be back!

Amazing hospitality, food, and spa. Also, everywhere you go on property smells great. The mineral pool is worth the spa pass every day. We had such a great time and did not want to leave! Also the burger is a must have. Another highlight of the trip was the bar/speakeasy on the property. Phenomenal drinks, live music, and we were shuttled there, too!

This is a magical place. Our son turned 18 and he's a big fisherman and outdoorsman. This was the perfect place to celebrate. He caught (and released) 40 fish in the lake, challenged himself on the ropes course and it was a perfect weekend. We had excellent service and food. I have stayed in resorts all over the world and I can confidently say, this property is simply magical. Its only a matter of time before the secret gets out about this amazing place.

No house shoes, never got my TV fixed, asked a couple of times. Lots of noise outside my window during the nights. It was very unnerving. I was ready to leave after the first night. However, the food was great and the gym was typical. Nice property, but very overpriced for a really nice hotel!

This was one of the most relaxing Saturday's we've ever had the absolute pleasure of having. The resort itself is one of the most beautiful places we've seen. From the moment we stepped inside until the moment we left, we were treated with the BEST hospitality that we have ever received. Oliver greeted us in the lobby and made us feel right at home. Cory gave us the best property tour where he answered every question in great detail regarding possible wedding spots/location. Katherine and McKenna we're so amazing to speak to about all the bees on property. Paul Flint could not have made things easier for us and went above and beyond to make sure this trip was perfect. The Spa and Sound Bath was so incredibly fulfilling and made the rest of the trip so peaceful. Meeting Chef Nate was also a great pleasure. He is a true master at his craft. We are HUGE foodies and have eaten all over. This was one, if not the BEST dinning experience that we've ever enjoyed. Every flavor, plating and thought went into making these gorgeous/delicious dishes beyond memorable. We cannot wait to return!!!

When my wife explained the concept of a 'babymoon', I quickly got on board. Nestled in the rolling farmland just outside Nashville, Southlall Farm & Inn was the perfect mix of luxury, relaxation, and unique experiences. From the moment we arrived, the beautiful property and warm hospitality put us at ease. We started our trip with a hike around the property. There are paths with guideposts and you can make your way around. Although we stayed at the 'Inn' which is the main hotel part, there are charming little bungalows scattered around the rolling Tennessee hills. Next time we'll be in one of those! After our hike, we hit the spa. My wife did a pre-natal massage while I did a sound bath. It's basically a guided meditation with someone using glass bowls to make soothing, rhythmic noises. I'm sure I'll remember it fondly in three months when my newborn is giving me a much different sound bath. The spa attendant Marvin was exceptional - warm, friendly, attentive (for the record, everyone at this resort could be described that way, but Marvin made an impression). After my wife's pre-natal massage and my sound bath, we relaxed in the mineral pool which has 60 minerals. Is that enough minerals for you? The mineral pool wasn't like other pools - you actually get out feeling really moisturized and hydrated instead of dried out from all the chemicals. After the spa, my wife relaxed on a daybed in the aptly named relaxation lounge, which has a selection of homemade teas and tiny tea cookies. All very luxurious. While she did that, I went to "Tequila & Honey", which was held in Southall's Jammery. Quick aside: Southall makes almost all of their food onsite, including several large greenhouses around the property. They also raise 3 million bees and employ two full-time beekeepers (name one other resort with full-time beekeepers). Anyways, Southall's honey has won lots of awards and this 'experience' was an eight part tasting menu that paired small bites of really good food with various tequilas and honeys. The tasting was led by a chef (forgot his name) and Katherine, the beekeeper, whose enthusiasm for all things honey was infectious. I learned a lot about bees and honey, really interesting stuff, but I also drank a lot of tequila and forgot everything I learned. We ended the trip with dinner at January, the fine dining restaurant within Southall. The food was unbelievable. Much of it grown on site or purchased from local farmers. The highlight for me was the Bear Creek Farm Coppa Steak. I can't even do it justice. Coppa is a cut of meat taken from a pig's shoulder and the chef at January sous vides the meat for 24 hours. It was the moist tender pork I've ever had with a sprinkle of crunchy breadcrumbs on top. My wife summarized the trip really well: Southall is easy to get to but still feels like a getaway. You don't have to go far to feel like you're somewhere else. We will definitely be back Other stand outs from our weekend: the homemade ca
