This was my first time at a bed and breakfast. I may never stay in a hotel again! The staff is so warm and personable. The suite we were in was modern and yet cozy with a farmhouse feel...with a gas fireplace that made it my happy place during our stay. The food was nothing short of amazing!! They also have the most beautiful library (photos attached) and I'm a book lover so this was a huge bonus for me. Breakfast is included with your stay and it wasn't just coffee and donuts like at a regular hotel. No, honey. I had peaches in molasses with whipped cream and a ham omelet and every bite was deliciously satisfying! And...I left my silver pinkie ring and texted the Inn Keeper--because she gave us her number-- and she is mailing me back my ring. And when I told her I forgot to purchase a shirt, she offered to charge it to my card and mail it along with my ring. You can't get that kind of service at a hotel. We will definitely be back!

Lovely house. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. The bed was very comfortable with nice linens. There was coffee and tea available any time upstairs. There was a nice front balcony and an additional sitting room where you can read. The breakfast was excellent. There was homemade hash with eggs or French toast with some of the best bacon that they make themselves. I would definitely return.

The inviting rocking chairs on the front porch for happy hour. Sunday brunch was a delicious send off to exploring nearby Appamattox Courthouse National Historic Site. The Rebecca Room was comfy and beautifully furnished and breakfast delicious with superb personal attention. Innkeeper was attentive and available

The inn was charming, the hosts were delightful, and the food was delicious! Our room was lovely - a little dated- but the beautiful bathroom and charming second floor balcony were wonderful added features.

Sadly, outside of this little gem and the Appomattox Courthouse, there is really nothing to do in the town.

The Hostess, Talia was wonderful! She was very friendly and helpful. We even had a last-minute diet change that they catered to with no problems. The breakfast was delicious, and the bed was comfy!

We did have some issues with the internet not working so great, but everything else was perfect.

Historic home, close to sites I was visiting garden , felt like owners loved the uniqueness of the home’s historical value, so they repurposed it into something good for the economics of the community. A win-win!!

Very relaxed, unpretentious and comfortable. The dinner menu is exceptional - a pity we weren't hungrier. Fantastic breakfast. A real chef in charge in the kitchen.

The air heating in the room is a bit drafty and noisy, but that's a matter of not being used to it.

The food is absolutely unbelievable. Dinner and breakfast were both a real treat.

I like B&Bs, but if you are expecting a giant characterless room with a wide screen TV…sleep someplace else.

Staff were welcoming and friendly. Property was very clean and food was amazing!!

Loved it all but house is an older home ( obviously ) so you will have floor creaks and older beds etc but that just adds to the magic of the place
