Blooming Garden Inn - Location and Directions

Blooming Garden Inn Sign

Historic B&B & Accommodations Near Raleigh, NC

The Inn is located approximately one mile east of Brightleaf Square, the designated center of Durham. We're the first residence on the left, just after the church, as you turn onto Holloway Street from Roxboro Street.
The '500' block in which we are prominently situated was once referred to as 'Mansion Row' and is a designated Historic Area. Within a few miles of the Inn is a wide variety of excellent restaurants and shops.
Even closer is the main public library (one block). The Durham Visitors Bureau and the local YMCA are just 4 blocks away. Within five blocks you will find the Civic Center, the Carolina Theater and the Marriott hotel. The Durham Chamber of Commerce is a short six block walk. Just a mile away is the Durham Bulls Athletic Park and the start of the American Tobacco biking and walking trail.

From Chapel Hill, take the 15-501 Bypass around Durham to the I-85 North and follow the directions below.

We are a block and a half from this point, just after the church on the left. Look for our custom white fence and gravel driveway. Sarah, our sweet, tethered German Shepherd, will likely greet you upon arrival.
