My boyfriend and I came down for a weekend getaway and were sorry it couldn't have been longer. From the moment we arrived ( which was late at nearly 9) we were so warmly welcomed it was like they had known us forever. Cindy greeted us and offered us drinks and food. Even though ken was getting off shift he got us settled in, got us drinks and an amazing chicken pizza- made to order.
I highly recommend taking advantage of the winery yours included in the room- they were inviting and we found some new favorites at generals ridge and ingleside ... Tho if you're doing all the wineries take a nap and schedule a later dinner.
Dinner was amazing and Joey took excellent care of us even encouraged us to get creative with our bar orders, as kens skills shine! We ordered salads and the stuffed quail and salmon Wellington- unique and so delicious! Cooked to perfection and full of flavor! After which we took our drinks out to the patio.
The included breakfast was also great and fueled us up for a great day at the wineries. I can't say enough about this charming cozy comfortable catering staff & inn. I have told everyone what an amazing weekend away we had- if you're looking for a nice relaxing getaway this is an inn not to be missed!
We will be back! My fiance and I drove down from Arlington, VA for a relaxing weekend away. Cindy and the entire Inn crew did not disappoint!
From the time we arrived, everyone welcomed us and encouraged us to make ourselves at home. We ate at a local restaurant, but we quickly learned it did not even compare to the food at the Inn.
The reputation of the Inn was evident as we visited numerous local vineyards. Everyone spoke highly of the Inn and the management. Its close proximity to multiple Northern Neck vineyards made it perfect for a vineyard weekend. We also lucked out and were able to attend The Wine & Oyster Festival at Straford Hall.
Perhaps our favorite part of the weekend was enjoying a bottle of wine on the porch in the rocking chairs, something we never get to do in the hustle and bustle of the city. After a 5-star dinner, we met a few exceptional characters from the town of Montross. Their shared their extraordinary lives with us, telling us how they ended up in the small town and the marks they've made for themselves. It was a true highlight to listen to the tales of not only Cindy and Ken, but also those in the town who frequent the Inn.
The review wouldn't be complete without raving about Sunday brunch! If we find ourselves having a lazy Sunday, we will definitely drive the hour and a half down to Montross just for this delicious cooking. Do not leave town without tasting the Inn's creations!
Do yourself a favor and stay here!!! Cindy and Ken are amazing and very welcoming! The food is AMAZING! It was such a great experience and so relaxing...I went with a friend b/c of a living social deal that included wine tastings, and it was the best buy on living social to date! Also take time to enjoy the vineyards in the area they are beautiful! I will most defiantly be back!!
