Luxury holidays in Charleston

When to go

Spring and fall are the most pleasant seasons for a visit. During the mild winters, the crowds thin out. July and August are the hottest (and most humid) months, so if you can't stand the heat, then stay out of Charleston at the height of summer.

Getting there

• Planes

  Charleston International Airport (CHS) is the city’s main airport. Direct and connecting flights are available from major US cities, and connecting flights are available through New York from the UK.

• Automobiles

  It’s not necessary to have a car to get around Charleston, but you might want to hire one at the airport if you plan to explore beyond the city at all .
