Magnificent!
My husband and I toured Longwood on May 28. The home's history is incredibly interesting, and the interior, although unfinished, is magnificent. Our tour guide, Allyn, was extremely knowledgeable. Be sure to check out the grounds, including the Nutt cemetery, as well as surrounding buildings with antiquities. I highly recommend buying the package that includes the tour of Stanton Hall, which will save $20.

A HIDDEN GEM
My friends and myself thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Longwood. Our tour guide was very informative as he told us about the sad tale of Haller Nutt. This place was very fascinating since only the bottom floor was completed. It is quite sad that the house was never completed. I would highly recommend a visit to Longwood if you are visiting Natchez or if you are just passing through the city. Undoubtedly, Longwood was the highlight of my visit to Natchez.
