Welcome to
Melange Manor.
If you've been dreaming of time away inside an old Southern mansion, where history lingers in the floorboards, nature surrounds you, and every room tells a story, welcome to Mélange Manor. Nestled in the heart of Hendersonville's historic district in North Carolina, the manor opens its doors a few times a season for small, intimate gatherings: writing retreats, seasonal celebrations, and guided weekends exploring the stories and landscapes of Appalachia.

She holds a BA in Anthropology and a Postgraduate Certificate in Ancient Religions, and is pursuing a Master's in Creative Writing and Literature at Harvard Extension School. Jason Bundy is a U.S. Coast Guard veteran, the chef behind every meal at Mélange Manor, and the steady hand that keeps the old house running, from its quirks to its corners. When he isn't in the kitchen or tending to the manor, he runs True Story Antiques, the couple's curated antique shop, where he finds new homes for old treasures with stories of their own.
