Places to stay in Rugby, Tennessee

Rugby is a community in Morgan and Scott counties in Tennessee. Founded in 1880 by English author Thomas Hughes, Rugby was built as an experimental utopian colony. While Hughes's experiment largely failed, a small community lingered at Rugby throughout the 20th century. In the 1960s, residents, friends and descendants of Rugby began restoring the original design and layout of the community, preserving surviving structures and reconstructing others. Rugby's Victorian architecture and picturesque setting have since made it a popular tourist attraction. In 1972, Rugby's historic area was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district. Places to eat in the region include Love Seafood Restaurant, Sing Lay Chinese Restaurant, Twanz Five Star Mealz, and The Kitchen Restaurant.
