About Elm Hurst Inn & Spa
The Elm Hurst mansion was built in 1872 by James Harris and remained the family homestead for more than 100 years. Today, the original mansion is home to a restaurant with nine private dining rooms, while a modern addition houses a 49-room Inn, Aveda Spa and several reception halls. The adjoining Carriage House is also a popular location for weddings and corporate events.

The 33-acre property was purchased by London-based Farhi Holdings Corporation in November, 2009. The Victorian mansion underwent more than $1 million in renovations last summer, with extensive landscaping work also being undertaken. Upgrades to the Inn’s interior are now underway.
