The staff is truly wonderful Terril and Trisha were absolutely wonderful. The food was amazing and ambience was so peaceful, a cute pool and hot tub out back, fire pit and gazebo tucked away for the ceremony! They Made us a cake and a bouquet of roses for the ceremony and we toasted with champagne as well. It's the little details that really made the few days we stayed such memorable experience. The rooms are quaint, older yes but still felt cozy. We hope to return soon and we highly recommend coopers landing to anyone looking for quite but enjoyable stay away from chaos and daily life

After 1 hour and 20 mins our food arrived at the table COLD. For dessert we ordered Bread pudding, Apple pie, and Double Chocolate cake/brownie. Which was just ok and COLD. The check arrived and we payed with cash and should have received a 3% discount but or waitress never came back with any change or a receipt. So, I guess she gave herself a good tip. This was our second and last trip to this restaurant. After $280 we expected just a little bit more. If you go, go with low expectations.

We arrived to find a very clean and charming farmhouse with yummy cookies, a comfortable bed, and fascinating pictures and books. After a wonderful night's sleep, Jacqueline cooked an out-of-this world homemade farmhouse breakfast with fluffy eggs, sausage gravy, biscuits, fruit, jams--most of which was sourced right there from the farm. That morning, she took us on a complimentary tour of the farm and explained much of the history and operation of the farm. We fed a baby guinea hog from a bottle, fed hay to fainting goats, and toured the high tunnel garden and 18th century cabin on the property. Overall, it was a very delightful stay and we look forward to visiting again in the future!

Jim and Jacqueline will introduce you to them all - goats, hogs, roosters, livestock dogs.... Old Crowe provides an opportunity to learn about and live a little of what organic farming and sustainable living are about. I'm still waiting for the strawberry jam to be surely set before dipping into it - but we already had a blast with Jacqueline learning hands-on about canning basics including food safety. I liked fishing the filled jars out of the hot water bath with a jar lifter. The guest accommodations are elegant, the community real country, hosts Jim and Jacqueline so willing to be of help, including with special dietary restrictions: Yes, although we don't eat pork we wanted to visit this heritage hog farm and they still made great breakfasts for us.

With 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and sleeps 10, it was a perfect place for my family and I to stay for my daughters wedding. The kitchen has everything you need.

How I discovered this Gem! My husband was booked for track time at VIR and I was tasked with…read morefinding lodging accommodations so I did some research to find the closest hotel to the racetrack and the Villa Cathedral was it. I had never stayed at a B&B so I was a little apprehensive but it was the closest to the track which for me was a win-win because it meant we could sleep in a little. All and all not only was it so convenient but I was pleasantly surprised! The room was beautiful, clean, comfortable and they also got up super early to have breakfast ready for us and to go coffee cups. Bill, Lucy and Gus the poodle were great host. They even accommodated the fact that we brought our 7lb doggie Abu. Gus and Abu quickly became friends! Gus was so gentle with our little guy. Their home is absolutely beautiful and tranquil. They will definitely be seeing us again. Best accommodations ever!

Where do I even start?!? I booked this safari style bed and breakfast roughly 3 hours and 15…read moreminutes away from Va Beach for my wedding anniversary. We had such a wonderful time and experience! Molly and Nick, the owners are such a delight! It's such an elegant, beautiful and unique bed and breakfast they have designed! They both have extensive knowledge and background in the Zoological field. Molly is a vet tech and Nick a habitat designer for zoos, therefore their animals are in great care! I love how as guests you're involved in learning about their wildlife conservation efforts and about giraffes and interaction with their two resident giraffes Boomer and Tuzu. In fact, 3 experiences with the two giraffes are included (tea time with the giraffes on the veranda, feeding the giraffes and the next morning feeding again)! The manor is a historic landmark that was built in the 1800s that the Wildes' (current owners) recently purchased and renovated into an elegant safari inspired bed and breakfast tastefully decorated by Molly herself! They only have 5 rooms available which accommodates 2 to 4 people. Two rooms which accommodate 2 max ( flamingo and monkey room) , and the zebra room ( which we stayed in) can hold 3 adults. The leopard room and elephant room can accommodate 4-5. Each room contains their own private bathroom equipped with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, hand lotion and hand soap, toilet paper, bath towels and wash cloth. The zebra room is spacious and elegantly designed with two large window seats, one which is a nice view over the veranda! We were pleasantly surprised to check into our room and see Boomer and Tuzu outside our window! How awesome was that?! There is a twin sized pull out couch and two closets in the room. There is also a mini fridge available. All the guest rooms are located on the second floor so it is not handicap accessible. They do have a small museum located upstairs dedicated to historical items that were found in the home. It's pretty interesting! The floors are original wood floors! The bed was comfortable and the AC works very well! They had a full house during our stay! Eleven guests, fortunately they were all nice and easy going! You will collectively do your giraffe encounters altogether, but they go by groups by rooms so each family has one on one time to feed the giraffes and even pet them in the morning if the giraffes are up to it!! Be sure to arrive close to check -in time (2pm-2:30pm) so you don't miss out on your included experiences!! Additional experiences included with your stay are the tea time with light delicious sweet and savory bites with options of various iced tea or hot tea in the veranda with the giraffes ( their herbal tea was sooo good!), happy hour for an hour that includes alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks and a delicious hot breakfast buffet in the morning served in the dining room with juice and water. They do have a coffee station that is available during your stay as well. Your itinerary is pretty booked most of the day, so you probably shouldn't plan to do anything the day of check/in unless you don't mind missing the included experiences. I would recommend experiencing it all! Although, you should probably plan for dinner and lunch prior to check-in. They do offer other animal encounters at an additional cost- south african penguins, and lemurs. They are in the process of bringing in flamingoes in the future. All the staff were wonderful! Kerri/Carrie (I didn't catch the spelling of her name), was our animal educator majority of the time. She was great! You can tell how passionate and knowledgeable she is about the animals! It was so fun to talk to her and learn about the resident animals! We met Amina as well who was just as pleasant, but met her briefly. Thad is another kind staff member who helps with the giraffes and gave us a tour of the manor upon arrival. Kelsey, our bar tender during happy hour made some fabulous lavender lemon drop cocktails and some bourbon drinks! She was a joy and a lot of fun to chat with! Everyone was such a pleasure to meet!! During our lemur encounter, Molly taught us how to help train Vuli with a ball target on a rod and a clicker with fruit on a stick as reinforcement. Vuli is so adorable and I wanted to cuddle with her. Unfortunately, we were not able to touch or handle the lemur because You cannot touch a lemur in Virginia because state law strictly prohibits public interaction and direct physical contact with all non-human primates. I just absolutely loved everything about this place! I can't wait to return with my sisters to celebrate their birthday!
