Highly recommended.

The worst part: my husband's parents were told they could stay another night, only to be asked to leave later because someone else booked online.

Featured in This Old House Magazine, this 18th Century log home has been lovingly restored with colonial detail and modern conveniences. It is a perfect private getaway, full of warmth and charm. Owners, Gina and Ted Blake are unbelievable hosts. The house sleeps five people comfortably, and includes a modern kitchen and (single) bathroom, as well as, central heat and air conditioning. The modern kitchen comes stocked with fresh fruit, coffee, eggs, cereals and other breakfast items - if you remain hungry at 11am, it's your own fault! The food and pantry are totally stocked with every need. Only thing, don't expect a oven... but there is a microwave. The kitchen otherwise comes with a full size refrigerator, stove top (with pans and pots), toaster and charcoal grill. We took our horse there, and enjoyed the facilities... as did our horse. She didn't want to get back on the trailer when it was time to leave! Bottom line: We're already planning to book again in a year.

This place is SO neat. I was looking for a cottage in the Middleburg or Leesburg areas so that…read moresome girlfriends and I could spend the day shopping and going to vineyards without having to drive all the way back to DC. It was a perfect end to our snowy Saturday! We drove up to the house all lit up under a blanket of snow and quickly were oohing and ahhing at the fantastic interior. Gina and Ted are friendly and laid-back, and the house itself is comfortable and cozy. The kitchen lacks an oven so we were glad we had planned to make a big pot of risotto for dinner, but they generously stock the fridge with breakfast foods--and we arrived to find a beautiful lemon cake, as well (Gina sometimes brings leftover stock from a nearby cake shop for guests of the cottage). The house sleeps five very comfortably--we were asked ahead of time whether we preferred 5 twins or 2 kings and a twin, which was really nice since we were five girls traveling together. There is only one bathroom, but it worked out fine, even with all females :) The central heat was great--we had anticipated a chilly old cottage but it was REALLY warm and cozy inside--the perfect spot for cooking together and playing Taboo :) We plan to go back next year (if not sooner). The ONLY thing that we really wished it had was a working fireplace--there is a fireplace but it does not appear to work. There's an outdoor fire pit, but there was too much snow to enjoy that the night we were there. So we made our s'mores with homemade marshmallows in the microwave :) The furnishings are quaint, the house is adorable, and the setting is beautiful. We opened the door in the morning to find Ted and Gina's dog sitting on the porch, and they came over and chatted with us while they fed the horses. They were extremely friendly, and told us to stay as long as we wanted since there were no guests the following night. If you stay, be sure to check out the photo album that documents them rebuilding the house--it's pretty amazing!

The owner was very accommodating for our needs, even with our dietary restrictions. We stayed in the cottage which is adjacent to the main house. It has a kitchen and sitting area on the 1st floor and the bedroom, bathroom, and washer & dryer on the second floor. The cottage was recently renovated but still retains it's rustic look and feel. It was such a romantic setting for us to stay there. We will definitely stay there again in the future. This B&B is a real gem. I would highly recommend others to check out the Poor House Farm B&B if you ever plan a trip to this area.

This is a top notch B&B, which offers a unique kind of charm. The place is located on the site of…read morethe old Loudoun Country Poor House, dating back to the 18th century, and the original buildings remain. The owner's free-range chickens and geese roam the grounds freely, and (I believe) are the source for the eggs that are served for breakfast. It is nicely decorated in an impeccably tasteful rustic style. My sister stayed in the cottage, where we spent most of our time. The cottage is renovated from the old kitchen building of the poor house, and has two levels, a large bedroom and bathroom with a clawfoot tub on the upstairs, and a full kitchen and sitting room on the ground floor. For the price that is an exceptionally great lodging. Our own rooms in the house were also excellent. The breakfast we received was top-notch. Like a photograph from Martha Stewart. It's hard to describe, but this place offers a very subtle experience. Everything is up to modern standards, but done up in an authentic style.Tasteful but simple. Yet historic. I think the owner has impeccable taste and knows exactly what she's going for. Very well done.

Well, you're going to get it here, along with a complimentary bottle of wine and a house that is completely renovated and beautiful. Let me first state that we were the only ones booked for the weekend, so we basically had the run of the whole house. If you have a group totally three couples (or three rooms' worth), this house is ideal, and so reasonably priced. The pick up and drop off of the keys is relatively simple. We were also given directions and info packets of attractions in an envelope upon our arrival. The Mews is situated well off of the beaten path, and there are a chicken coop, goats, and pony within a stone's throw. Bring ear plugs. There is also a rooster. LOL. It's air-conditioned and shaded, and there are paths nearby for hiking. The bed was a new foam mattress and SO comfortable. Body pillows and comfy sheets...I could go on, but when we were supposed to be up and moving, we were still snug as a bug. I felt so appreciated as a customer while I was here. I can't recommend this place enough.

They are in the process of fully opening so the only room available for rent is called the Eagles Nest. It was a beautiful master suite with gigantic bathroom and a balcony overlooking the wooded property with all the amenities (including dog bowls and leashes!). We were greeted with a bottle of wine from local vineyard, Breaux, and a nice note from Gail, one of the managers. We were able to check in early, throw on some hiking clothes and hit up Ravens Rock for the afternoon before cleaning up and heading to dinner at Magnolia's at the Mill, a great restaurant located in the darling town of Purcellville, only a few minutes from the Inn. The best part of the trip were moments on the balcony, taking in nature's beauty and sipping wine. The next day we enjoyed our continental breakfast on the balcony and then picked up pumpkins nearby before going to the wineries. We literally didn't see a soul when we where there, even though an innkeeper lives on site, which was exactly what we wanted. For people looking to get away from it all, especially for those looking to escape DC, this is the place. I believe they are in the process of completely opening, so they had only one room available for rent. There will be two more available soon.

Pros: - Dog friendly! - Vegan menu/delicious breakfast - Lovely, large rooms - Amazing service - Plenty of common spaces - Beautiful landscaping and flowers - Outside is quiet - Very few rooms (limited guest count) - Famous goats We loved our stay at Sundogs B&B. The house and grounds are beautiful. There are plenty of seats along the huge covered porches. One side of the house has a screened in porch, which was especially well liked by our group. I attached a few pictures, it's a beautiful place! I can't rave enough about the food. They make vegan decadent! Every breakfast was a treat: peach shortcake, potato quiche, warm blueberry cobbler, baked apple french toast, blueberry scones, pitchers of good coffee, etc. Don't plan to lose weight while here. The Cons The only downsides I feel obligated to mention are: - WiFi is unreliable (pro? Or, con? ‍) - Barking Don't be surprised if you end up with a chorus of barking puppers, which can be heard throughout the house. I don't want to brag, but Bern Bern didn't make a peep. Some in the group mentioned they wished there were additional trash cans and a larger fridge/freezer (for snacks and leftovers).
