Circa 1893. Located in the picturesque Natchez, Mississippi historic district, The Devereaux Shields House is a Queen Ann Victorian bed and breakfast surrounded by carefully manicured gardens. It was built between 1893 and 1900 and is listed in the National Register. Sit on a rocker on one of the two-level front porches. Stay in a guest bedroom or suite in the elegant main house. Spacious rooms are offered in the adjacent Aunt Clara's Cottage with heart pine floors and a large veranda. The inn is just a few blocks from the 200-foot-high Natchez Bluffs, which offers incredible views of the Mississippi River with its paddle wheel tour boats.
