| Every now
and then an event occurs that leads to a new standard of excellence for
discerning travelers. In restoring the Inn, we knew that fabulous rooms
and great food are not enough - that truly a new kind of world-class Inn
would also need to be a romantic retreat, a social center, a surrogate
home , a place of serene relaxation...an escape from the ordinary.
Relax at Shenandoah
Valley Inn, circa 1906, located on one of Staunton's most historic streets.
This stately mansion is a fine example of early 20th century Colonial Revival
architecture. Each of the four spacious guest suites/rooms has a private
bath and is appointed with 18th century style furniture. Enjoy the innkeepers
beautiful calico cat who's name is Claire.
In the morning,
enjoy a bountiful gourmet breakfast served in the formal dining room graced
with a crystal chandelier and fireplace. In warm weather, enjoy your final
morning cup of coffee or tea on the private veranda overlooking the calm
beauty of well manicured gardens. In winter, relax before a crackling fireplace
in the elegant living room or curl up with a book in the library.
After breakfast,
spend the day touring fascinating Staunton, the oldest city in the Shenandoah
Valley. The Inn is but two blocks from downtown; a pleasant walk to numerous
antique shops, galleries, restaurants, museums, stores, the American Shakespeare
Theater, the Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library and birthplace and historic
churches. |
