We stayed in the 2 bedroom cottage at Glen Gordon Manor and it was wonderful. We looked out our windows at horses running in the meadows and chickens running on the premises. Property is well taken care of and just simple and beautiful. Staff was fantastic. Our breakfast was delicious. We had coffee delivered to our room in the morning and it was really really good. I would highly recommend! read more

What can we say that hasn't already been said about this place? Not much, its reputation precedes it! We swooped in for a last minute getaway for our 25th anniversary--never having known about this area of Virginia--and came away totally stunned with The Shenandoah Valley and its surroundings. We used AI to find this place, and to our delight, Glen Gordon Manor is a treasure that will forever live in our memories. The manor has been under current ownership for about twenty years, and the chef/owner Dayn Smith lives onsite upstairs in the manor, along with this wife Nancy, who did the decorating for the manor. Maddie was a total sweetheart to us upon arrival (and any place we're greeted with a glass of bubbly earns a special place at the top of our list). We stayed 3 nights at Glen Gordon Manor (Sunday - Wednesday) in the Mews Cottage in the Fyvie room (there are a handful of rooms in this cottage). Fyvie was well-appointed and immediately comfortable. The small porch was a spot where we whiled away many hours (both morning and evening). The coffee delivery from the manor each morning was always so nice! If you've read ANY of the reviews here, you'll know that each room is outfitted with a multi-speaker SONOS system which was so clutch! Breakfasts served inside the manor were so delicious, and so filling! Each morning was something a little different--but the formula the same--usually beginning with a bread or scone, followed by honey-sweetened Greek yogurt with granola, and then the main which always featured a farm-fresh egg presumably from the chickens we gazed upon during breakfast. We couldn't sit still long enough to enjoy the beautiful pool during our visit, even though the weather was perfect for it. We spent quite a bit of our time visiting downtown Front Royal and even more time on Skyline Drive doing some hiking! For one of our hikes, we took advantage of the manor's offering of a packaged picnic lunch, and simply loved it. We enjoyed a five-course meal at the very sophisticated Houndstooth Restaurant in the manor, and were totally awestruck. We spent a lot of time trying to decide which dish was our favorite, arriving at a decision of "inconclusive" because they were all flawless. At the end of our incredible dining experience, the chef himself came into the dining room and spent a few moments at each table--what a treat! I overheard another guest comment that the manor has Pappy Van Winkle, why should I be surprised at that?! Wow! The only recommendation we could make (which has nothing at all to do with the Manor) is, try to plan your visit here on a Wednesay-Sunday ... we found that many of the vineyards were not open Mondays or Tuesdays ... and let's face it, this part of the region is wine country so the vineyards are a must! We visited Rappahannock vineyard, which was right up the street. Not disappointed at all! read more

We recently spent part of our honeymoon at Glen Gordon Manor, and overall, it was a beautiful and memorable experience. Nestled among the lush, rolling mountains of Virginia, the property itself is absolutely breathtaking--peaceful, scenic, and full of charm. We especially loved the presence of the bunnies, chipmunks, chickens and horses, which added to the rustic, countryside appeal. We stayed in the Gordon Room, which was spacious, well-appointed, and featured a luxurious bathtub that easily fit two people--perfect for a romantic getaway. The location is also ideal: just a short drive from Rappahannock Cellars and Chester Gap Cellars (we highly recommend both), and only about 10 minutes from historic downtown Front Royal and several other attractions. The hospitality from Michelle, her daughter Roshina (spelling?), and Maddie was warm and welcoming. They were kind, attentive, and made us feel at home throughout our stay. However, we were a bit disappointed that the chef--who is also the owner--never made an appearance during our visit. At a high-end, intimate bed and breakfast, it would have been nice to have even a brief introduction from the chef behind the menu. Another letdown was the lack of on-site activities (I will note that we are in our 30's so this may be more of a generational thing). Besides the pool, there wasn't much to do on the property itself. We would have loved to see offerings like walking trails, horseback riding, or interactive experiences like cooking lessons with the chef--something to further enrich the experience of being on such a beautiful estate. We also opted for the Romance Package, which unfortunately fell short of expectations. At $189, it included a dozen roses, a modest $17 bottle of Willm Brut Blanc de Blanc, and six chocolate-covered strawberries. While the gesture was appreciated, the value and presentation felt underwhelming for the price point. On a brighter note, the prix fixe dinner was a highlight. The five-course meal was thoughtfully prepared, with the short rib and polenta standing out as the star of the evening. We skipped the wine pairing and chose a few cocktails instead, bringing the total to just over $400 for two. Everything was well-executed (though we weren't fans of the gazpacho), and the setting for the meal was elegant and serene - live music would have really taken this experience to the next level. All in all, we would rate our experience a 4.5 out of 5. Glen Gordon Manor has so much going for it--from its stunning location and charming accommodations to its gracious hosts and lovely cuisine. With a few enhancements to guest engagement and experience offerings, this could easily be a 5-star destination. read more

I have stayed at the inn in Little Washington many times, but for the value and experience Glenn Gordon Manor gets my vote in spades. Dayn the chef is terrific. Their multicourse meal was spectacular and all the service between Madison and Kenya, and everyone else was so friendly and down to earth the accommodations were terrific. If you do book here the Kenmere room is the best. read more

Glen Gordon Manor - Bed & Breakfast Near Me - Huntly, Virginia

WOW. Blown away. This place is an A++++ and I wouldn't change a thing! From the gorgeous location, to the stunning accommodations, to the incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable staff, to the five course dinner to die for.. just amazing! My only regret is we couldn't stay longer! We went for our anniversary, we live about 30 mins away and just wanted a special overnight just the two of us. We got a sitter and booked an overnight here with dinner, breakfast and a couples massage and it was all just wonderful. The food is so good it will make you weep that you can't start over and experience each first bite again. The massages were exactly what the doctor ordered to unwind - no notes! I know I am rambling, but honestly if you are looking for a really special treat - this hidden gem is IT! read more

****Edit**** Just one day after I posted my review, the owner of Glen Gordon personally reached out, apologized, and kindly took full responsibility for what had happened. He was courteous, genuine, and such a pleasure to speak with. He even offered a thoughtful token to make up for the mistakes that had been made during our stay. The communication and outreach demonstrated to me how much he truly cares about his guests and the reputation of his business. Because of that, I'll definitely be giving Glen Gordon Manor another chance, and I'm happy to change my review to 5 stars. read more

Imagine for a moment entering a romantic hunting lodge from the early part of the 1900's. Now imagine a modern and classy version of that same lodge. That's what you get with the Glen Gordon Manor, an elegant, luxurious, and romantic inn and restaurant in the heart of the Shenandoah. We were welcomed warmly by the restaurant manager, Scott, with two glasses of champagne. He gave us a full tour of the property and than showed us to our room. We stayed in the Fyvie room, a detached property within walking distance of the main inn. What made this room amazing, was the large opulent bathroom with a huge soaking tub that fits two people perfectly. We spent practically all afternoon and the following morning in that tub, which felt like a day spa. In addition to the tub, the room featured a bidet, as well as a Sonos surround sound system, which allowed us to play music while relaxing in the room. To finish off the experience, the room featured a private patio overlooking the fields. It was the perfect spot to enjoy an early morning coffee or relax with a book. To enhance our stay, we booked a couples massage, in their newly renovated converted barn spa. The spa featured a massage room, a small advanced fitness center, including a Peloton. The massages were so peaceful and truly enhanced this luxurious and romantic stay. My wife said that the massage truly made her birthday weekend special. And finally, the grand finale, a fine dining experience at the Houndstooth restaurant by chef and owner Dayn Smith. The onsite restaurant is a super intimate candlelit space. We enjoyed a five course tasting menu along with a bottle of local wine. We were more and more impressed with each course that came out. What truly stood out, was the fall squash ravioli and deconstructed halloween dessert. The best part of the dining experience, was the head chef and owners family all worked together to create this experience. His son, Colin, was even one of our servers and was telling us all about his life growing up in restaurants and his future culinary journey. Along with his son, the rest of the staff were absolutely outstanding in service, personality and attention to detail. Even breakfast was unbeatable. The property has free range chickens walking around, which serve as a source of fresh eggs for the morning breakfast. My partner quickly became best friends with the rooster, who likes the left over bread from the previous evenings dinner. We have eaten at many top restaurants in the world and this was surely one of the best dining experiences that we have ever had. So much so, that Patrick O'Connell from the Inn at Little Washington, frequents the establishment... on his rare days off. One thing to note about this property, was it's close proximity to some of Virginia's best wineries and small towns. This makes for a perfect day outing before returning to the inn and relaxing. We highly recommend this inn and restaurant if you are looking to celebrate a special occasion and made to feel very special. read more

We have found the Tuscany or Napa Valley of the east coast! The view past the pool is enough to sell you on staying here, but the charm inside the inn is inviting as well. What's incredible is the staff here seem to do it all; they'd check us in, then be serving dinner, help us poolside, make our beds, etc. The staff were all really friendly and made such an effort to make sure we enjoyed our stay. I love how the owner/chef also came to serve and explain his dishes showing he's not just hiring others to do it, but that he enjoys seeing his guests too by participating. What brought us here is we need a hotel with a full service restaurant in reach of the rooms, so we can put our 1 year old to bed and then with the baby monitor head to dinner. Even though this inn was full of couples and had a romantic vibe to it, the staff ate up our daughter by giving her all the attention (esp at breakfast, immediately getting an egg or pancakes for her). She particularly loved the chickens and horses on the property, especially the pony Penny who we visited daily. The restaurant Houndstooth is exceptionally good; the plating and quality of the food, along with the service.. an experience from start to finish. They have 3 different dining areas that all have their own vibe... we liked the table right by the window view of the pool. We were disappointed that they don't offer a la carte menu because the price for their 5 course meal is very steep. We believe this is why the turnover of customers is high here because they don't have the option for a la carte. We opted for 5 course meal two nights despite it being over budget and though it was very enjoyable, I felt a bit guilty how over budget it was for us. But YOLO when on vacation Lol. Pro tip! They have board games in their public bathroom if you're looking to hang in the lounge area. Also towels for the pool in there. Thank you for a homey wonderful stay with beautiful views! read more

We had a wonderful long weekend getaway in the Edward Suite and can't wait to return! The service was excellent, most notably Colin and Kate, and we were greeted with glasses of champagne and a tour of the beautiful property. The tasting menu and wine pairing were delicious. They thought of every detail, and the spaces were comfortable and beautiful. Breakfast each morning was different and absolutely wonderful; the detailed and thoughtful service lasted from the minute you woke up until you retired to your room. The property is lovely, with some "conversation chickens" and horses, including two rescued mustangs. The barn has a spa space, a 24-hour gym with Peloton, and a massage chair. The Edward Suite was spacious, clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. We loved the rain shower, extra "solarium" with comfortable seating, and our private patio space with a brand-new hot tub. Highly recommend the sunset over the mountains from the hot tub. On our second day, we went hiking, and Glen Gordon staff packed us a delicious backpack picnic lunch. For the price, which is equivalent to other similar inns in Virginia, like the Ashby or the Boar's Head, this is our favorite place by far. read more

Simply the best. Forget The Inn at little Washington. This is in an old inn only has 5 tables in main room. One menu and one sitting but the attention to detail is incredible. Just look at the menu and the food. I have a happy tummy. It's not cheap and it's far away BUT with the money and the drive. read more

Just got home from staying at Glen Gordon Manor. I wanted to write a review because it was so fantastic ! The grounds were breath taking and relaxing and so charming ! Walking around was absolutely beautiful and peaceful . The staff was beyond friendly and accommodating ! The rooms were large, cute and had everything you needed . Breakfast was 830-930 am and they made you a breakfast that was delicious and the eggs came from the cute hens they had as pets! There were gorgeous horses o. the property and my family had fun feeding the friendly horses! Anyway, had to write what a fabulous time we had .... we wish we could have stayed longer and had the dinner there , as it looked amazing but we were only in town a few days for a wedding! If you are considering staying here ..... do it... you won't be disappointed !!! read more

The Glen Gordon Manor is a B&B located in the Shenandoah Valley. This place has been on my list for a while to check out, and for a birthday weekend celebration, the hubs and I were able to book our stay. This place was once a Wells Fargo stagecoach stop, the main house holds the dining area, a nice selection of books that you can borrow, as well as a large sitting area, in which you can also request to hear more about the history behind the grounds. There are rooms and suites you can choose from, and we stayed at the Windsor Suite, which was located a few steps away. Our suite looked like the pictures - having a king-sized bed, a soaking tub with a separate marble two-headed shower, twin pedestal sinks, a water closet with a bidet, a mini fridge, an iPad that is connected to surround sound, and bathrobes. Checking-in was a breeze, and the front staff were so welcoming and super sweet. We did find some off/odd things about our suite, though, as there were toilet paper rolls 'hanging' off the bathroom decor, the bidet was unclean/rust-like, damp hand towels on the sink, and the window sills being extremely dusty, and the shower smelling like mildew. We did let the front staff know, and they were extremely apologetic - just thought that there would be more attention to detail and higher quality control due to the rates of the room. The soaking tub was large, and it did look out to the back where there are some horses that are milling around - so cute! Just note that if you had the intention to enjoy the views of the horses while taking a bath, privately, beware! There were visitors/guests who were walking around the grounds near the bathroom windows - having the blinds drawn at all times was necessary! There was no TV in the room, which was great if you really wanted to focus on disconnecting for a bit. There are plenty of spots to park your car on the gravel lots that they have. I recommend in foregoing in staying in their suites and focus on having a wonderful dinner at their restaurant, the Houndstooth - probably one of the best meals I've had in a while! Chef Smith is extremely talent and a wonderful chef, and his courses are absolutely divine and delicious! Definitely a great place to have a date night or to celebrate. +book at the Houndstooth! +bypass staying in the suites +friendly staff read more

Ok, it's been...far too long since I've re-visited this review. I'm happy to say that I'm still just as pleased as I was with my first visit! The accommodations: no matter which room you choose, they are all lovely. They are all very different, and located in different parts of the manor (or in the cottage or separately). My personal preference is the Windsor, located in the cottage. Luxurious (and honestly one of the most comfortable - I actually asked the innkeepers about the mattress) king bed, relaxing blue-gray tones, an enormous bathroom with a soaking tub that overlooks the mountains and horses. We've also stayed in the Wallis, which was very nice too. Even larger bathroom! The service: just great. Chef Dayn and Nancy are willing to go out of their way to make you comfortable. This past visit, we requested a cheese plate to enjoy in front of the fire, which they built for us upon request. We've also done the same thing, but by the pool in the summer! Most recently, Chef installed a very cool wine cellar - make sure you check it out. The food: incredible. The breakfasts are impeccably prepared, and they aren't kidding about the free-range chickens - they really do run around the back of the property and you can always see a fresh bowl of eggs in the kitchen. The dinners, though - as others have said, these are fine dining at its best, and with excellent wine pairings if you so choose. We try to visit every season - the menu changes quite frequently. Glen Gordon Manor is a place I found on accident but one I keep returning to! read more

Small hotel with a full service restaurant and a staff that is five star worthy. The rooms were spacious. My only complaint was our room could of had a king bed, there was enough room for it. We stayed three nights, loved the area of the hotel, the grounds of the hotel. I also think a few options at breakfast would of been nice. Although we made a few special requests and got them all. So again. The staff was very superb. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a romantic getaway in the Tuscany of the north east. So many Vinyards near by, and perfect weather. read more

Everything about this stay was excellent! We came as a birthday celebration and stayed a couple of nights. A couple of weeks out, staff from the Inn called to pre-arrange our stay and ensure everything was set for meals and our stay. We chose to stay in a suite and upon arrival, Brian did an EXCELLENT job giving us a tour of the Inn and going over all the amenities and various features of the Inn and the room we stayed in. The pictures of the room don't do it justice, it's so much more impressive in-person! The bed was VERY comfy and perfectly adorned with luxury linens! Curtains in the room were made of beautiful, heavy fabric with nice shades behind them. The room featured an iPad, which could be used to surf the web, as they have free wifi throughout, but it was also playing on their Sonos system when we arrived, so we had awesome jazz playing in our room the entire stay (select the music of your choice!)! The room was very clean and perfectly decorated! There was a fridge, which was great for the free bottles of water provided by the Inn, as well as Reidel wine glasses, which were great for wine to enjoy in your room. The amenities in the bathroom were very nice! Soap, body wash and shampoo has an amazing scent! Plenty of space in our bathroom, with a separate shower and toilet (water closet) area and tub and sinks, featuring a large clawfoot tub. Beautiful art through the property as well as our room. Lots of amazing views from the bedroom and various common areas of the Inn, as their grounds are beautiful, as are the mountains which seem to be visible from nearly every window. The included breakfast was absolutely incredible! Dayn prepares something different and unique everyday, using fresh, tasty ingredients and service during breakfast was friendly and outstanding! They have a beautiful pool with lounging chairs and umbrellas to enjoy a nice book (they have a large bookcase with very interesting reads in the main hall!), a drink poolside or a dip in the pool. Since they have a full bar and an amazing wine list, you can enjoy drinks from either while at the pool or around their grounds. There's also a nice area out back to spend the evening around a fire pit or even dine at one of their many outside dining tables. The entire stay was incredible and very nicely priced! We can't wait to return! read more

Idyllic and romantic spot off the beaten path. Absolutely perfect for a recharge. The property is stunning. The main house is gorgeous. Breakfast in the morning was fresh and delicious.

Only suggestion, stay in the farthest room from the front door, lots of foot traffic. read more

This is the perfect spot for a romantic getaway in the Virginia mountains. The pool, with mountain views, was divine.

Stayed here over a long weekend to celebrate an anniversary. Fantastic gem of an inn nestled away in Virginia wine country. Upon arrival we received a quick tour, with some history of the inn and accommodations. The property is peaceful and quiet, great place to relax and unwind. A hearty breakfast was served each morning and the bar has some great cocktails in the evening. On our last night we had an amazing gourmet meal in the Houndstooth restaurant. Highly recommend! read more

I had a fantastic 2-night stay at Glen Gordon Manor with my hubs for our babymoon! The property is absolutely gorgeous -- a sprawling landscape of green and trees, easy to navigate, and close to a lot of businesses and places just a short drive away. It's very easy to access Skyline Drive/Shenandoah National Park, and they have lots of suggestions for shopping, hiking, and the like close by. They have the most adorable chickens running around, as well as horses (and a shetland pony!) on property as well. The rooms are really charming and beautifully appointed. We paid a little bit extra for one of the larger suites -- the Wallis Suite -- and it was enormous and gorgeous. You can definitely go for one of the more basic options though if you're not planning on spending a ton of time in your room. We had dinner at the Manor on the first night, and it was a delicious, farm-fresh affair. Dinner took quite a while, but each dish was delicious and surprising! The chef also took the time and care to personally adjust my menu slightly since, y'know, pregnant. Breakfast each morning was delightful and super fresh as well. Love that they use their own eggs, their own honey, etc. Made everything so authentic, local, and full of love. We also booked a couple's massage, which took place inside the converted barn and was very relaxing. I highly recommend Glen Gordon Manor as a less-expensive (but still treat-yo-self-esque) alternative to staying at, say, the Inn at Little Washington. I loved our stay and can definitely see ourselves returning to celebrate special occasions, or even just get away for a bit in the future! read more

A fabulous memorable meal from start (amazingly creative and delicious cocktail menu) to end (a rich chocolate dessert with a vibrant berry sorbet). We did not stay at the Manor, but were only dinner guests, celebrating a small wedding. Our expectations were high and GGM exceeded it on every account. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming; service was good without being overly attentive and the food in the 5-course dinner was sublime. As good (maybe even better?) than some of the nearby highly-rated restaurants. We will return...eagerly! read more

My husband and I stayed here one night and had the most wonderful experience. The people are so friendly. The house and grounds are Beautiful! The food: dinner and breakfast, were delicious. The pool is so pretty and the mountains in the background make it spectacular. There are lots of places to hang out in the house and socialize if you are coming with friends. There are 2 wineries within 5 minutes and many many more a short distance away. And at the end of the trip, my husband tells me he never wants to stay at another place again because nothing will be as nice as this. We've been all over VA, MD, DC, PA, NY staying at different B&Bs but none compare to this place. It's truly exceptional. I was having sensory overload with the beauty of it all. I'm so happy to have found this place to get away. read more

From start to finish, our anniversary trip expectations were exceeded during our stay at Glen Gordon. Upon arrival to the lovely almost 50 acre manor, the beauty of Glen Gordon is all around the property both inside and out. Michelle was a wonderful first impression upon opening the door for check-in and welcoming us for a tour of the property accompanied by a glass of champagne. She was like an old friend and accommodated all our needs during our stay. Her team is wonderful in hospitality and serving their guests. We loved our breakfast each morning overlooking the property with fresh eggs from the chickens on the manor. The pool was timeless and relaxing for reading and enjoying the beautiful weather. We booked a couples massage that was amazing to recharge and relax while on vacation. We used the great fitness room that had all we needed during our stay as well. The cocktail bar was lovely for a pre-dinner drink at the amazing Houndstooth Restaurant on site at the manor. We had dinner one night of our stay for the five course prix fixe meal and it was a meal we will talk about for a very long time. It was Theater at the dinner table and each course was better than the previous. We kept pinching ourselves throughout the meal as it was incredible on both presentation and taste. We can't speak highly enough of the talent of chef/owner Dayn Smith. We long to come back and stay and eat at Glen Gordon Manor. The people and the place well exceeded our expectations! Thank you all so very much for making our 10th anniversary trip so memorable and special. Tyler and Lindsey read more

The Glen Gordon Manor (GGM) is simply one classy joint. Let me just say this review is long overdue. We booked the Runaway Romance Package for August 2018. Everything the establishment promised was delivered. The entire mini ceremony was well planned and stress free. We had two prior discussions prior to the August Wedding date to have everything in order. The stay was remarkable the owner (Dayne) provided us more than we had been promised. ( Don't think it would be my place to discuss how flexible and classy Dayne is. You'll have to meet him for yourself!) We stayed two nights, the one night prior to the wedding and the evening of the wedding. Breakfast is included in the stay. GGM is a nice quiet and well kept. The employees are charming and accommodating. The surroundings are beautiful and clean. On the Wedding Day - We were provided a Justice Of the Peace (Mary) who orchestrated the ceremony and was so kind. She made herself available to answer any questions and even provided assistance on a relatives wedding which was going to be held in September. We had privacy and excellent service on the joyous and memorable day! The Wedding Meal was definitely a highlight! Despite having a small party of 10 we had multiple different diets which were all accommodated. (Of course, we can't keep up with people's diets). Everyone complimented on the varieties of wine and beautiful INDIVIDUAL menus multiple courses which were laid out. The meal was definitely memorable to all of us! Dayne happens to be the chef! We concluded with a delicious customized cake! We are very grateful we choose Glen Gordon Manor for our wedding. They also offer dinner for guests and by appointment. We could write more but it would not do this place justice. If you're simply looking for a fine establishment to get married, lodging, or/and dining Glen Gordon Manor is the place to book! read more

My daughter and I have found our favorite place in the Virginia countryside! We loved staying at Glen Gordon Manor. This is the horse and country estate that Wallis Simpson and King Edward escaped to for fox hunting. This is the most luxurious and down to earth spot we have ever found.

I hope that we are able to have dinner with Chef Dayne Smith the next time we stay at Glen Gordon -- and there WILL BE a next time! read more

Loved this place! We had a cottage that was absolutely beautiful (loved the bathroom!) . We were greeted at our check on with a glass of Champaign to accompany us on a guided tour of the Estate and our well appointed room. The Chef was busy in the kitchen making dinner for the evening service and acknowledged us as we went past his kitchen. We had dinner the next night and it was fabulous- elegant, beautiful and worthy of a gourmand. We really enjoyed walking around the beautiful estate and watching the chickens run around the property. Very peaceful retreat . Highly recommended! read more

We enjoyed an excellent 3 night stay at Glen Gordon Manor and really didn't want to leave. The property is serene with stunning views of the Shenandoah Valley and Mountains. Most importantly the owners and staff are the most gracious, inviting and hospitable we've met. Owner Nancy, who served as our master host, ensures you have everything you need to make your stay excellent. Owner/Chef Dayn ensures you have a wonderful culinary experience from start to finish. The gourmet breakfasts were one beautiful way to start the day. The dinner was top notch. The staff all around were gracious and helpful as we planned our visit to the area. We are already planning our return visit! read more

What a great find! In Huntley Virginia, this was absolutely the nicest B&B we have ever stayed in. Not your typical one either. We walked in and went looking around and found the chef Dane and his wife Nancy in the kitchen and we hit it off right away. For me hanging in the kitchen and talking food with a 5 star chef was so cool. The place is 50 acres and you can walk around or hang at the private pool. Really who has a pool? The rooms were all well appointed and very comfy. Didnt stay for the 5 course dinner but the breakfast was so original from the carrot bread to a yogurt and fruit parfait leading up a to perfectly cooked egg on a home made arrepas and a small chunk of short ribs. Everything from start to finish was great. Even got to feed the horses! read more

This place deserves 6 stars. My wife and I were looking for a place to spend some quality time. Our first trip without our kids since our 3 year old was born. GGM did not disappoint. The manor itself is tasteful and elegant and immaculately clean. You'd never know that the owners 2 kids also live there. And if you do run into them, they're exceedingly polite. The rooms are nicely decorated as are the common spaces. The bed (Wallis suite) was comfortable and the bathroom adorned with heated floors, great tile work and nice fixtures. The manor grounds are well kept and the road around the property serves as a nice walking loop. There are a number or horses on the property and the owners were more than willing to let us interact with and feed them. The views of the mountains and countryside are magnificent. The pace of life seems to slow down here, at least for the guests. The food. Is. FANTASTIC. Dayn, owner and chef, produces fantastic dish after fantastic dish. The food that came out of the kitchen was to die for. 5 or 6 dishes for dinner depending on the night. All of them leaving you wanting for more. I don't think anything else needs to be said. The food is a 10. They also have an extensive wine list. The service is terrific. They cater to your needs with a smile every time. Whether its helping you to plan a day trip or doing whatever they can to make your trip more enjoyable. My wife and I can't wait to go back. read more

This place has the most beautiful grounds. From the moment you drive in, you'll feel relaxed looking at the Blue Ridge Mountains. Everything here was perfect-- the food, the rooms, the hospitality. They even have horses here. Everything was wonderful and I can't wait to come back! read more

See all

I had dinner here this weekend and it was a delicious treat, food paired perfectly with wine. Such a great variety of food in the four courses, plus a great dessert course. Terrific relaxing atmosphere at this place. I'd love to stay here for a long weekend some time. I would recommend the restaurant at Glen Gordon Manor to anyone for a special occasion. The wine pairing is optional but well worth it. read more

Our two night stay was absolutely fabulous in every way! We arrived late in the evening and were greeted by staff who showed us around the property and made us feel extremely welcome in our spotless and well appointed room! In the morning, coffee was delivered to us in our room by Michele and Rashina. This is a dynamic mother and daughter team that did an incredible job serving breakfast and making us feel so welcome. We took our coffee and walked around the property and fed the horses some apples from the ground and then watched the chickens being fed. The scenery on this property is incredibly beautiful, even from our bedroom window! Breakfast was a gourmet class act! We loved everything about our stay and will definitely return. Many thanks to the lovely duo of Michele and Rashina for their exceptional customer service and the "specialness" they brought to our stay. They made us feel like part of the family!!! The staff will welcome you with open arms! Additionally, our son stayed in the cottage for his wedding night and it was absolutely stunning!!! It is a very beautiful and huge space! I highly recommend upgrading to the cottage for a wedding or anniversary!!! read more
