Grovewood Village is a lesser-known place in North Carolina packed with art and history in a most beautiful space. The 11-acre site is home to the Biltmore Industries Homespun Museum, Grovewood Gallery, working artist studios, the Estes-Winn Antique Car Museum, and Eldr restaurant. And the best part — Grovewood Village has no admission fees with free onsite parking. The artist studios are open for tours on the second Saturday of the month from May – October, and the restaurant has its own hours. Let’s take a look at this unforgettable adventure.

The interesting site once housed the woodworking and weaving operations of Biltmore Industries, co-founded by Edith Vanderbilt.
