I spent about an hour using different search engines to find the perfect B&B experience like I’ve had in the UK. I considered a few choices when selecting a B&B in this wine region of Virginia. Location, the charm of the B&B home, of course a reasonable price range and that perfect host and/or hostess. To me, Orchard House ranked #1 for all of my requirements for my trip with my husband over a long weekend. Lovingston, Virginia was a perfect location. We opted for a B&B that had more scenic ambiance rather than one located by the side of a downtown road. Here I could see a great view (even during winter) from the bay windows of my room. Deb and Mike were great hosts offering interesting sites of the area. During breakfast the morning after we arrived, they asked us what interests we had - food, driving on scenic by-ways, Civil War history? Then they gave us suggestions based off our likes and dislikes instead of offering more generic local lists of things to do. When my husband mentioned to Mike that he liked distilleries, but only drank non-bourbon drinks, Mike offered up a local place that offered such spirits. That tidbit of info I didn’t see on the internet reviews. If Mike didn’t know the details of this local distiller, we might not have even considered that as part of our adventure. The breakfasts were delicious & the portions were more than enough. I just loved the Eggs Benedict with asparagus! It’s back to work and I’ll be missing that breakfast and great hosts!
