Belle Meade Travel Guide

Nashville

Founded in 1807 by John Harding, “Belle Meade” translates to mean beautiful meadow in old English and French.  The property began with just a single log cabin and 250 acres. The estate quickly grew to become a 5,400 acre thoroughbred horse farm complete with a Greek Revival Mansion, deer park, train station and rock quarry which supported five generations of owners.

This hotel is so outdated. The room was not very clean. We didn’t really have any interaction with staff. I would not stay here again. The only thing that is nice is the location.
