Perry Cabin was built by purser Samuel Hambleton, Aide de Camp to naval commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, just after the War of 1812. Hambleton retired to St. Michaels in 1816 and designed the North Wing of the Manor House to resemble Perry's cabin on the flagship Niagara. The English Crown endowed one of its original land grants upon Davenport, which is now the present site of Perry Cabin. The property's history includes transformation from private home and working farm to a riding academy in 1952. In 1980 the Meyerhoff Family, owners of the 1979 Kentucky Derby winner Spectacular Bid, transformed this Greek revival-style home into a bedroom inn and restaurant. In 1989 this charming house was restored and expanded by Sir Bernard Ashley to include forty-one bedrooms and suites as well as an award winning dining room. The acquisition by Orient Express Hotels of the Inn At Perry Cabin adds another unique property to their collection of hotels. Just a short stroll from the Inn is the historic village of St. Michaels, filled with Victorian storefronts and antique shops. St. Michaels is known as "the town that fooled the British".
