North Carolina is a vast place for enjoying the finer things in life. With 100 counties and a nearly nine-hour drive from west to east, there are many hidden secrets waiting to be discovered throughout the Tar Heel State. One such place is found nestled in between the towns of Warsaw and Kenansville, 50 miles due east of Fayetteville.
The Scots-Irish-themed inn, winery, and restaurant here is known as The Country Squire and you won’t find another spot quite like it in all of North Carolina.
