Wortham House is a circa 1823 gothic revival carriage home (the oldest in this style in Charleston and the USA) located in the center of a city block behind an 1804 private residence in downtown Charleston. Both properties are on the national Register of Historic Places.

Wortham House has three bedrooms in the second floor each featuring twin beds (one of which can be converted to a king), flat screen TV's and full private bathrooms. The home can accommodate 6 adults. The first floor features a huge, elegantly furnished lounge ideal for morning reading with coffee and afternoon drinks. A powder room is located adjacent to the lounge. A dine in kitchen for six is also adjacent to the lounge when breakfast is served until 9am. In the kitchen there is a refrigerator, an oven and microwave for heating of food brought in to the home. Unfortunately cooking per se is not allowed by the city of Charleston.

Wortham House is surrounded by award winning gardens published in multiple magazines and books. It has been most newly recognized by the Smithsonian Archives of American Gardens and the Garden Conservatory of America's Finest twenty-five gardens in the U.S. Space in the garden is available for dining. Off street parking for 2-3 cars is incorporated in the garden.

We do not allow family pets, kids under the age of 18, or cooking on premise. Although your breakfast is supplied in your rate. The entire property is non-smoking, including the driveway and garden. Multiple level changes in the old building and the garden make it unsuitable for those who are unsteady on their feet. Also, no rollaway beds supplied.
