We just discovered The Orchard House Bed & Breakfast in Lovingston, Virginia--only about 3 1/2…read morehours from Raleigh, NC--and it's the perfect getaway. The husband-and-wife owners, along with their four wonderful boys, are building such a special place here. The property is absolutely stunning: an amazing barn that's ready to host weddings, a sparkling pond with a fountain and gazebo, a vineyard right on-site, a beautiful swimming pool, a cozy fire pit, and breathtaking mountain views in every direction. There's so much to do--wineries, breweries, and incredible restaurants are just 15 to 20 minutes away in any direction, along with antique shops to explore. Or you can stay put and relax: enjoy a private breakfast on the front porch, book an in-room massage, or have a romantic dinner under the old oak tree in the backyard. And the breakfast? Out of this world. The wife is an incredible cook--you'll wake up to something better than you could imagine every morning. Whether you're looking for a quiet escape, planning a wedding, or just want to enjoy Virginia wine country, The Orchard House B&B is absolute perfection. Highly recommend!

We paid more than $500 to rent their event area. It was advertised as a nice, renovated area WITH…read moreAC and we were told it would be cleaned before our event. We were also told the owner/event manager would be on hand for help the day of. She seemed to forget who I was after meeting with me multiple times, but no biggie. I'm sure she meets lots of people. What was really not okay was that when we showed up to set up our event, the area was NOT cleaned and there was nobody to be found. There was dust and dirt everywhere that took an hour to clean before even being able to set up, a gross dead bug graveyard in the sitting area floor, it smelled musty, and overall was just not up to the standard they advertised. The owner nor any staff showed up at any point. We were not greeted, we were not helped, and it was just kind of a "okay good luck" situation. Also, the "AC" was on 75 on a hot May day. After paying the second half of the $550 fee, I didn't hear from the event manager other than a text asking what time I'd be in. Afterwards, nobody checked on us or the space. Never even heard from them to get a "thank you for renting our space" or "I'm sorry I wasn't available today"... To pay $550, you'd expect to get what you pay for. As a local, I will NOT be renting there for any other party I host nor trying out their B&B if the service is anything like this experience has been. Next time, we'll pay $550 for a nicer place on 151.

There are wineries, breweries and a distillery. There are places related to history like the Appomattox Courthouse and the D-Day Memorial. There are lots of hiking trails. There are some great restaurants to visit as well. Some that we have been to are Vito's, Mountain Mamas, and Blue Mountain Barrel House. Book a couple nights, you will not regret it!!

At ~150 a night, it's very reasonably priced, and the experience is far more friendly than your typical motel experience.

They have early check in and late checkout available for a very reasonable fee, and a log book full of all sorts of recs for activities/restaurants in the area. It's obvious how much the owners care about and take pride in this establishment, and I'd definitely recommend it if you are ever in the area. I would certainly return.

When we got out she welcomed and thanked us for being there. Very Nice !!! That felt good. She and two others were placing flags out on the property for the holiday. Checking in with the front desk clerk was exactly the same welcome. I asked who was the nice lady outside, and she said that's our GM. I was like WOW !!! It was nice to meet someone in her position so kind, down to earth and appreciative. The GM's name is Katrina. The desk clerk was Krista. Both were super sweet. The evening desk clerk was Cheryl and guess what, the same. STELLAR Employee!!! The lobby was bright and clean with the 24 hr freshly made coffee machine. YES !! The elevator, hallways and room carpets could use a deep cleaning or replaced. Our room was CLEANED perfectly with very comfortable mattresses and pillows. Housekeeping really did a fantastic job in our room. Katrina, Krista and Cheryl recommended shopping spots, restaurants and information about the fireworks display. That was AMAZING. Parking lots downtown were filled with people having fun, like a family reunion. Beautiful!!! The breakfast was GOOD !!!! In the breakfast area there was a different lady Sat and Sunday. Both were friendly, walking to the tables asking if you needed anything and if everything was ok. Replenished the hot and cold food, while keeping that area and the seating areas clean. Ok, when leaving, we see Katrina, the GM, again. She asked how was our stay there, also if we enjoyed her town. She thanked us for staying and to please return. Katrina gave us hugs. Sooo sweet. GM's are not usually around and especially assisting the-employees. With Everyone loving their jobs, says a lot for the GM. Thank you Katrina!!!!!

The beds were comfortable and clean. Enough soft pillows that I didn't have to ask for more. Breakfast had a few good options. I did enjoy the sausage gravy and biscuits.

We've visited Chesley Creek Farm twice and will continue to return year after year…read more If you are looking for seclusion, nature, and a personal touch without sleeping in a tent this is the place for you. The cottages (there are 4 to choose from) are well appointed with everything you need and lack exactly what you don't need in a place like this (phone, tv, or internet). The cottages are in Dyke, VA about 20 minutes from Skyline Drive so it's very easy access for hiking. It's about 45 minutes to Charlottesville where you can shop for groceries, go to dinner, or just hang out if you need to reconnect with the city. The cabins have jacuzzi's, full kitchens, grills, backyards with fire pits, indoor fireplaces and board games. They also have a salt water pool in the main house that you can use (and I recommend after a hike!). Personal touches make this place what it is: they've thought of everything. We also loved the fresh cookies that were dropped off at our house and Chuck and Stew always write us personal notes to welcome us to the house. Looking for privacy? The cabins are secluded and you enter them via a keypad on the door so you don't have to check in or out...just come and go as you wish. I highly recommend this place! And will be back in the fall.

Absolute trash hotel. The management here literally stole $150 from me. On top it of that; after…read morethey stole the money, they had the nerve to lie to me and blame Expedia and Hiltons hotel policy for stealing my money. The fact is the general manager and manager of this hotel have zero honor and will literally steal your money to meet their hotels quota. Hope it was worth the $150. I gave the management multiple opportunities to do the right thing. Do not trust this hotel with anything. If any business is willing to steal from you and then lie to you, there is nothing they are not willing to do. I stay at hotels over 100 days a year and never has something like this happened. Gross.

The service was great, a nice greeting when I checked in and the staff was friendly throughout the stay. Special shout out to Ginny at the front desk for her stellar service. The location is inviting, and my king bed & room with outside entry was spacious and clean. The room had all the Hampton amenities including a nice size TV, microwave, mini fridge, iron and full size ironing board, and a coffee maker. The bed was comfortable, and the room had a nice lounge chair. There was plenty of parking, and my room was in the back of the hotel (by the cabin) and the area was quiet and relaxing. The property has a lot of charm, especially the historic Cabin built in the mid-1700s, it catches the attention and is used as a special events space. The main house, Col Alto, is a beautiful Georgian-style brick home dating back to 1827. Both are rich in history and make the stay even more unique.
