Drayton Hall is a stunning historic estate that was established back in 1738. It is the oldest untouched home open to the public in the entire United States. Drayton Hall offers a unique glimpse into the past, earning it a spot on Conde Nast Traveler's list of the best places to visit in South Carolina.

While Drayton Hall is captivating during the day, its true magic unfolds after nightfall. On select dates, embark on an exclusive candlelight tour, immersing yourself in the enchanting ambiance of a bygone era! Experience Drayton Hall at night the way its residents once did. You'll gain a better understanding of the house and those who resided within it, and you'll get a new perspective of historic Charleston from the perspective of a preserved colonial home. After you complete your tour, you can enjoy a warm drink and stroll the grounds back towards the visitors center. The Shop at Drayton Hall will be open so you can browse for souvenirs and gifts.
