Herring Hall

I had a wonderful stay at Herring Hall. The house is magnificent; the hostess is extremely personable and helpful. The breakfasts were fantastic also. The menu was made up of many delicacies that I wouldn't have ordinarily associated with breakfast. Every effort is made to highlight locally grown/produced food. The home is filled with not only beautiful antique furniture but also many whimsical items that stimulate the imagination. If one is visiting the Natural Bridge area in Virginia, I highly recommend a stay at Herring House.

We stayed at Herring Hall for a W&L reunion. Although not in Lexington, it was very convenient - an easy 15 minute drive to the school. We found Herring Hall a delightful place to stay. The accommodations were very comfortable and the food gourmet.

This was my first experience at a B&B and now I have extremely high expectations of them from now on. Anne is wonderful and very welcoming. Breakfast is delicious and the house and surrounding property is just lovely. It was very clean and the service was wonderful. Five stars!

Herring Hall is fantastic. I enjoyed my stay there very much and would and will recommend to family and friends. The service and quality of the Inn are impecable. Ms. Hall is very very friendly and made the stay even more so pleasant. The food was delicious. And the room was fascinating. Very happy and pleased with the experience.

We enjoyed it so much, we made another trip three weeks later! Anne the innkeeper makes you feel it is YOUR home while you are there. The food is amazing! We will definately return!

An outstanding B&B! The service, friendliness and country atmosphere make this B&B a wonderful place to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The "Special" family breakfast recipes are mouthwatering, the interior decor takes you back over 100 years, the cleanliness would please any Ship's Captain and the Innkeeper's desire to make your stay pleasant is beyond reproach. Can't wait to go back!

Herring Hall is a delightful 19th century home in quiet farmlands of southern Virginia. Our hostess, Anne, exudes southern charm and hospitality. This is a place to return to time and again!

I intend to return here again and again. I loved the history of house, the house itself, the property, just everything. Our hostess was so friendly, I felt lke I was hanging out with a friend. She even found us a place to go horseback riding which I was unable to locate in my google search. We were there for our 5th wedding anniversary and I must say that it was the best celebration we've had yet.

WoW We had the best time ever celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary. Ann took excellent care us during our stay at her beautful home. I will always apprecate her efforts of making everything perfect and complete. My wife and I are coming back and sharing this wonderful experence with our family.

We stayed for two nights at this well-appointed country home, and wanted to live there by the end! The charming Innkeeper, Anne Herring, keeps a beautiful and historic B&B 10 minutes from Lexington, VA and 30 minutes from vineyards with a garden that produces fresh ingredients for delicious, homey breakfasts every day (think of vegetables plucked the morning of!). The house combines modern amenities (e.g., free WiFi) with classic charm (e.g., clawfoot tub) in its pristine rooms. Anne has a solid grasp of the local area in addition to being a wonderful, thoughtful hostess. And it doesn't hurt to have a friendly, beautiful dog to welcome you to the estate!

The entire experience at HERRING HALL is wonderful. Anne Herring, the hostess and owner is a warm and friendly person who wants to make your stay at Herring Hall the most enjoyable B&B. My wife and I were extremely pleased with our stay at Herring Hall. We will return their to celebrate our anniversary every yeear from now on.

We stayed just one night but was great. A warm welcome and tour of the place, immaculate rooms, well preserved and restored almost 200 year old house, stunning ! Cozy and specal place, worth the stop ! Good and freindly service.

My girlfriend and I stayed at Herring Hall while our daughters and granddaughters camped nearby. Anne is a delightful hostess. She is always ready to help and welcomed our family warmly when they stopped to visit. The perfect place to stay when visiting Natural Bridge!

Herring Hall was lovely and Anne, the owner, is charming and informative about the local area. We'll stay there again when we're in the area.

Not only is this a beautiful home but Anne is a wonderful hostess/Innkeeper. My mother and I couldn't have had a more pleasurable Girl's Weekend thanks to the Bright Bovine Room, Anne's hospitality, and the wonderful home, surroundings, and food! We can't wait to come back and bring friends with us to share the experience next time!

This has become one of our favorite places to stay in the Lexington area. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful setting, away from traffic and noise. The house was immaculate, the Innkeeper very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delightful, hoe cooking served in style in the formal Dining Room.

The best thing about Herring Hall is Anne Herring, the lovely hostess who pampered us at every turn. She is the epitomy of "Southern Hospitality"! Our stay was a pure delight in the most lovely, comfortable, historic setting imaginable. Combine that with the gourmet breakfast, and it was a 5 star experience. We will be back for sure.

Anne is an attentive host who makes her guests feel welcome in her beautiful, historic home. The attention and service she lavished made us feel as if we were returning regulars and not first-timers only staying one evening. Wish we could have stayed even longer!

We had the pleasure of staying at Herring Hall in early October and had an excellent time. Anne is the nicest host and made the stay very comfortable. The rooms are excellent and the house is beautiful. The breakfast was so amazing that we skipped lunch both days because we were to full! I highly recommend a stay at Herring Hall.

Our innkeeper made our visit special, and helped us plan our visit to the area. She is kind and genuine. The General room exceeded my expectations- beautifully decorated and a great size. The property is peaceful, and the Pink Cadillac provided a fantastic breakfast. Thank you for everything, highly recommend!

Everything was great except the cook wasn't there and we ate our breakfast at a restaurant down the street.

Herring Hall has everything a Virginia B&B could offer beginning with a gorgeous rural Shenandoah setting with easy access to I-81 and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Herring Hall is an impressive historic inn, well-appointed and immaculate with every attention paid to guest comfort and interest. My wife and I stayed in the Keydet room, but peeked into the other two rooms which were equally roomy, uniquely colorful and tastefully-styled. Our lovely and charming hostess (Herring Hall is her ancestral home) met us at the door, offered us glasses of blackberry merlot (We gratefully accepted, of course!) and took time to chat and get to know us. We were delighted to be served a wonderful home-cooked country breakfast (eggs, pancakes, sausage, biscuits, fresh fruit, juices, coffee and tea) in the spacious dining room. Our hostess even surprised us with a gift as we said our farewells. Our first stay at Herring Hall happened by chance. Subsequent visits will be intentional.

Found this property after an internet search. Our stay on OCT 2009 exceeded our expectations. the house is magificant, the rooms very comfortable, the front porch (with a glass of Merlot) the perfect place to view the sunset across the fields and mountains, and Anne the innkeeper is a most charming host. don't miss this one if you plan on being in the area!!
