High Meadows Vineyard Inn

My wife and I have stayed here on several occassions, over the past 2 years, the most recent being last weekend for our 1-year wedding anniversary. I can't say enough positive things about High Meadows..it's always an amazing stay because of the accomodations, food, where the property is located, and most importantly the "personable service"...we are always made to feel like it's home; and of course there's Henry, the peacock. My suggestion is you gotta' go experience the comfort, solitude and history of High Meadows. You won't regret it!

Our third time and as always, our stay at High Meadows was exquisite. Nancy is always so very friendly, helpful, and simply a joy with which to chat. Cynthia never fails to amaze with her delectable breakfasts, and as it was our anniversary this time, we sprung for dinner and Cynthia exceeded our greatest expectations. What a fabulous chef! The grounds are immaculately kept and gorgeous. The gazebo is the perfect place to while away a rainy afternoon reading or to sip some vino in the evenings. The rooms beautiful and the beds extremely comfortable. And if all that isn’t enough, let’s not forget Henry, the very handsome peacock. Every stay at High Meadows is an absolute delight!

My wife and I celebrated our 25th anniversary and selected High Meadows through a Groupon.com offer. We lucked out as well with wonderful weather the weekend we stayed and thoroughly enjoyed visting local historic sites and taking in a couple of the local wineries. Overall, the stay was relaxing and just what we both needed. Breakfast and dinner were delicious, service was great, and the inn's atmosphere was charming. Looking forward to returning!!!

My fiancee and I loved staying here. It is the perfect place for those who want to take a break from the break-neck pace of the modern world. The food was great, the location was perfect, the amenities were spot on and the charm was unmatched. We spent our time hopping from vineyard to vineyard tasting wine and eating until we could eat no more, which was easy considering the fact that there were a plethora of vineyards and wineries to choose from within a 10 mile radius of this B&B. Charlottesville is close enough to easily get to and the drive was beautiful to boot, so if you feel like enjoying some night life, you can do that too. All in all, I couldn't ask for a better place to stay and we will return here as soon as we can!

I'm from Fort Myers, FL. I found true paradise at High Meadows. I'll visit again, someday. My heart is still there, somewhere in between the lush vineyard, the family, kitchen and wonderful chef.

First time at a B&B but I do know great service when I get it!

My husband and I stayed with Nancy and her daughter at High Meadows for a wonderful long weekend. We were in the Peony room and had a comfortable bed and warm, welcoming room (which was a lovely contrast to the end of February chill outside!). I highly recommend having dinner with them during your stay--breakfast was excellent, dinner was even better, and they were perfectly happy with us bringing our own wine from one of the local vineyards. Nancy was helpful with planning our day trips and the house and property are lovely without being too cute or precious. Its a short drive to Charlottesville and the surrounding wineries. We can't wait to come back in the spring when everything is green and growing!

I was looking for a quaint getaway retreat for my husband's birthday. I discovered this gem thru groupon & definitely was very surprised! The house is old but exquisitely decorated & charming. Nancy warmly greeted us & was great at making sure our needs & interests were met. This place is conveniently located outside of Charlottesville, so winery's are all around! We had a wonderful time & HIGHLY recommend this B&B. the food, inn, & friendships we found will not be forgotten! Thank you Nancy, Ryan & Cynthia for making my husbands birthday a memorable one! Love, Billie & Bert

Surprise Birthday present for my husband. The home was what I expected, but I had very high expectations, so no complaints. The location was a ittle furtherout of Charlosttesville than I'd originally wanted, but the trade off of peace with a little village within walking distance as well as proximity to vineyards was worth it. Design of this home is really fantastic, they did a great job of making each room visually exciting. The little town didn't have a lot to offer in terms of shops, but three nice restaurants for afternoon/evening dining were surprisingly very good. Best part was the staff...this family feels like family, I would definitely recommend and return.

My husband and I stayed in the Cottage Room Nov 30-Dec 2 and had a great time. The location is very close to Monticello and tons of wineries and breweries. It was very quiet and relaxing and we received a lot of good information from the innkeepers. We opted to do the private dinner on Friday night and it was just amazing! The breakfasts were also spectacular.

Cozy room, great property, close to Charlottesville, VA. Would definitely stay again!

Great couple's get-away or girls' weekend away spot. The B&B is clean and beautiful. The proprietors are friendly, knowledgable about the area, and respectful of your privacy. The grounds are gorgeous, the food is delicious, and the location is just out-of-the-way enough that you feel like you are getting away from the hustle and bustle of every day life. I highly recommend High Meadows!

We loved everything about this place. It wa brilliant, Nancy is a wonderful hostess and her daughter does a fabulous job on keeping us fed. Would love to go back and stay.

Loved Nancy's stories about the house....about the town.......about the previous guests. She is extremely knowledgable about the Wineries in the area and right on the money about each one. Follow her lead!

I stayed at the Inn for two days as a personal retreat. It was simply lovely. First, the hostesses were just wonderful. They were warm, inviting, gracious and knowledgeable about the area. The breakfasts were great – fresh and delicious. My cottage room was large and lovely. A perfect place to read and rest. I met a wonderful couple who delighted me. I enjoyed an evening of sitting on the porch with other guests , playing words with friends while sipping tea and eating the special treats that the hostesses left out. The inn is easily located on RT 20 which made and it easy for a city “girl” likes me to get to wineries, Monticello and Charlottesville and see the stunning scenery along the way . Two friends had previously been at the inn and recommended it – and now I add my resounding cheer to the group. Lovely place.

We stayed at High Meadows Vineyard in for two nights. This is a wonderful bed and breakfast with a great deal of very interesting history. Historians would really enjoy a stay at this B & B. Scottsville is also a very pleasant little town with a couple of great places to dine. We hit many of the wineries which surround High Meadows Vineyard Inn.

This was our first time at a bed and breakfast and, my being a person who does not make a habit of staying in other people's homes, I was not sure what to expect. We found High Meadows to be a clean, well kept B&B, though the grounds were still recovering from the derecho that had caused extensive damage throughout the mid-Atlantic a few weeks ago. The owner was welcoming, polite, and shared extensive knowledge of the surrounding areas. She was patient with questions and thorough with descriptions of sites and activities available. Our room was comfortable, and the fact that we had a private shower in the bathroom was a plus, considering our traveling companions had a bathtub in their bedroom with no acceptable shower capability. The breakfasts were outstanding, incorporating fresh fruit into each of the breakfasts - a frittata one morning and crepes with a fresh peach sauce the following morning. As stated above, I had no idea what to expect at a B&B, so the next two points may be petty. After returning from our day touring wineries in the area, we returned from the 100 degree heat of the day hoping to find a nice pitcher of lemonade or iced tea, but were very disappointed to find none. Also, wifi service was supposed to be available throughout the grounds, but I was only able to access my IPad or IPhone from one specific corner of the house. When available, wifi was spotty at best. All in all, the three day, two night stay at High Meadows was a pleasant, relaxing getaway.

My husband and I throughly enjoyed our stay at High Meadows. We loved the Cottage room, both the fun and harmonious use of color and the fact that being in the Cottage afforded us a bit more privacy. We highly recommend the cheese tray, it was the most delicious food we had there, beautifully presented and prefect after our drive there the first night. Breakfast outside on the patio was delightful both mornings and Nancy was great about giving suggestions for winnerys to visit. My husband is an artist so we LOVED, the bold use of color in decorating inside and out!

My husband and I stayed 2 nights at High Meadows last September, and we absolutely loved it. This was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast, so we weren't quite sure what to expect. We ended up loving everything about it--the service and friendliness was outstanding and you really feel welcome. We stayed in the Dogwood room, which was perfect. It was large and private, and the decor was lovely. We did get to see some of the other rooms while we were there, and the looked just as nice! The breakfast was incredible--probably the best I have ever had (breakfast foods are my favorite, so that says a lot). We also were staying there through a Groupon, and the deal included a winery tour and a picnic lunch provided by the inn. In that lunch, there was a quinoa salad that I really enjoyed. As far as location, it was great. We were able to go to about 7 wineries over the course of the day, and easily go into Charlottesville for dinner at night. I cannot remember if it was Nancy or Cynthia who we talked to most, but she was SO helpful at giving us directions, suggesting where to start with our wine tour, and suggesting places in Charlottesville to eat dinner. She also was just so nice, and we enjoyed having conversations with her. I highly recommend High Meadows to anyone who wants to stay at a bed and breakfast in this area. It was a great all-around experience, and we hope to be back in the future!

We took advantage of a special they were promoting and had a lovely time. Nancy was a gracious host, taking the time to sit down with us and provide advice and guidance on our winery tour. The Cottage Suite was spacious, colorful and comfortable. We ate a delicious takeout meal from Amici's (downtown Scottsville) in the kitchen area. Breakfasts were wonderful. Coffee was available in the sitting area prior to being seated. They started with delicious fruit dishes and ended with satisfying entrees. I highly recommend this B&B for guests who are interested in a relaxing getaway. And, the area is loaded with wineries, with Charlottesville not that far away.

I stayed at High meadows Inn in 2008 and absolutely had a perfect time. We just had my daughter's wedding at the Inn, and the family stayed at the Inn. Cynthia & Nancy are perfect hostesses. They work hard but love what they do. They are the best B & B I've ever stayed at. I highly recommend. If I could give 10 stars, I would.

My wife and I searched high and low for a bed and breakfast for our first Anniversary that offered easy access to the Monticello wine trail and a relaxed countryside setting. We couldn't have been more pleased with our three night experience at High Meadows. Nancy provided us with an exceptional level of service and guidance for the surrounding area including restaurants and wineries (complete with tasting coupons). She has a magnetic and trustworthy personality that truly made us feel like we were at home and enabled us to fully relax knowing we were in good hands. The breakfast was wonderful, the bed incredibly comfortable (we stayed in the Cottage Room), and departed trying to figure out how soon we'd be able to return. I couldnt recommend High Meadows more highly based on our experience and we will always look back on our first anniversary fondly thanks in part to Nancy's hospitality.

My wife and I just spent our second weekend at High Meadows (two years in a row for her birthday weekend), and everything has been absolutely wonderful both times. The rooms have been perfect, the food has been to die for, the grounds are beautiful, and Nancy has been the most wonderful hostess we could have asked for. We will definitely be coming back more in the future.

A great weekend trip from DC - the beds were so comfortable we could have stayed in bed all day and been satisfied. Very uniquely decorated and beautiful. Not much to do in town and didn't have great restaurant experiences in Scottsville but Charlottesville is a half hour away and the B&B is surrounded by vineyards and history.

We stayed in the cottage. Very nice, but a little musty smell. I'm sure it's hard to keep the mold completely out. Would have liked thicker curtains to keep the light out since the sun rises so early in mid-June. The breakfast was outstanding: can't beat fresh layed eggs! The hostess was very nice and we would completely recommend this place to others. Quaint little town with 3 restaurants.

The grounds are goregeous. Nancy took excellent care of us helping us plan our trip to the wineries and recommending places to eat in the area.

Great B&B. Owner Nancy is wonderful. Very knowledgeable. Good resource for information in the area. Lovely landscaping and surroundings.

What a find the High Meadows Vineyard Inn was! We were looking for a location to celebrate birthdays and recent graduations. High Meadows provided us with a place to relax and restore "our spent selves." Thanks to Nancy and Household for showering us with calm, quiet and comfort - all needs met! Hope to return in the near future!

What fun! Both the inn and the grounds were a delight. From the peacock to the fresh home grown herbs it was a wonderful stay. After a late arrival we enjoyed a bottle of wine from the vineyard and local cheeses.

High Meadows is exactly what a B&B should be...peaceful, scenic, and relaxing. The peacock adds a quirkiness and interest that you won't find at your average B&B. Breakfast is a highlight. Using ingredients from the grounds enhances the experience. Nancy is a gracious and delightful host. I look forward to our next visit.

My wife and I stayed here last weekend for 3 nights and we had a great time. Nancy, the hostess is a lot of fun. Her daughter Cynthia, (I believe that's her name) provides excellent food for all of the breakfasts as well. We even got to chat with Francis a little bit and he gave us great advice on restaurants in the area. The B&B itself consists of a big, historic house on top of a little hill. It has its own vineyard, gardens and even a pond, all of which you can stroll around. There's a peacock patrolling the premises too! While we were there we met a couple that was back for their 3rd time. I think that speaks to the quality that you can expect at this B&B. We'll be back for sure!

We stayed in a cottage separate from the main B&B house. It was very relaxing. Food was excellent.

High Meadows Vineyard is a wonderful place to stay while you tour wineries in the Charlottesville area. My finance and I recently used a Living Social deal for a quick mid-week getaway and absolutely loved our stay. We stayed in the cottage and absolutely loved our room. The breakfast was excellent both days and the staff was pleasant, helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this place and definitely would come back again.

Our two night stay was very enjoyable. The room was delightfully eclectic with a very comfortable four poster bed although the pillows were a tad bit lumpy, but that is the only thing I would change. The setting was lovely, all the chickens, the peacock, and resident cats, what a delight...just beautiful. What can be said of the breakfast except that both mornings were just delicious. Compliments to the chef! We are very early risers and waiting til nine for breakfast was hard, especially since after the first morning we knew how tasty it would be...but we had a lovely time sitting outside under the gazebo talking to the chickens and petting the cat, patiently awaiting our goument's delight breakfast. Next time I will bring a few snacks to keep the growling tummy at bay til breakfast! We did enjoy our visit very much. What a lovely house, lovely hosts and lovely countryside to explore.

My husband and I stayed in the Willow room this past week and loved it! The house is so pretty/funky and close to wineries and downtown Charlottesville. The breakfast was really good! Especially the baked grapefruit. And the house has so many nice touches. Loved the big king bed and comfy bedding. We stocked up on tons of wine, mead, cider, and beer and Nancy gave us coupons for half of those places so the tastings were free! We can't wait to go back.

The inn is a bit quirky and eclectic, but in a good way; it's not one of those over-decorated B&Bs that takes itself too seriously. My bed was comfortable, and the room was light and airy. The breakfasts were delicious, and Nancy is a warm and generous host. And the grounds are just lovely--plus, there's a peacock!

Really liked our time here. Breakfasts were scrumptious and we slept well. Innkeeper was very helpful with suggestions for things to do.

We really enjoyed our stay. Very nice, clean, great food and value.

A bit of a drive into Charlottesville. Hosts friendly. Nice decorative touches everywhere. Beautiful lawn and garden areas. Needs coffee service earlier. Coffee maker in cottage rooms would be nice.

Innkeepers were welcoming, warm and friendly. The setting, rooms and amenities were very nice. I loved the afternoon cookies. I plan to stay again.

My fiance and I enjoyed two nights at the Inn. Clean, friendly, casual, lots of help finding things to do and see. We could not have asked for anything more.

The bed portion of the room looks pretty much exactly like the photo. There's a separate room for a shower/toilet, but the sink is outside the bathroom with separate vanity light and mirror. Not sure if the fireplace works since it was pretty warm when we visited. Our hosts were very accommodating with our late arrival and it wasn't an issue at all. breakfast isn't ungody early, and everything was very delicious. Especially the fresh eggs from the free range hens. They were also really helpful with hints and places to go during the day including dinner options in town and in Charlottesville and vineyards to visit.

Great getaway, lovely surroundings, quick access to Charlottesville, Montecello and excellent Virginia wineries

Beautiful setting among the award winning gardens! Very freindly and knowledgable staff about the area wineries and restaurants.

Charming home with lots of history and very gracious hosts. We enjoyed meeting the other guests but also had plenty of privacy and opportunity to pursue our own interests.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay at High Meadows. Very nice to talk with the other visitors, and enjoyed the winery coupons. We read in the gazebo, and enjoyed the company of one of the cats, while we watched the peacock show all of his feathers! The breakfasts were wonderful. I especially enjoyed the broiled grapefruit! This was our 2nd visit, and I'm sure we will visit again one day!

everything was lovely. The peacock was an unexpected addition. Would stay there again and recommmend the inn to others.

This was my first experience with a B&B and it was wonderful. The food was excellent and well prepared. I was surprised that breakfast was not just the ususal continental style, but a full breakfast and different each day.

The B&B was nice, staff was friendly. Met my expectation for the price that I paid.

Very friendly staff. Very restful rural setting. You have to rest and get away from it all because there is no TV and you cannot get consistent WiFi un most rooms. But that's not all bad if you are trying to get away from it for a couple of days.

My husband and I just spent two lovely nights at the High Meadow Inn. Nancy was very accomodating in working around some unforeseen dietary restrictions. The Inn is very welcoming with many comfortable places to sit and relax, both inside and out. We loved interacting with the cats, chickens, and peacock on the grounds as well as chatting with the other guests over breakfast.. The food was delicious and we highly recommend having dinner at the Inn one night during your stay. Spring is beautiful in this part of the country and Scottsville is a wonderful base for spending time in Charlottesville and touring the surrounding wineries.

I loved my recent stay at High Meadows! The food was superb every morning for breakfast as well as the country supper. Nancy was a wonderful host who was friendly and always eager to help if we had a question. Probably my favorite part of the stay was how comfortable the bed and pillows were. So luxurious I didnt want to go home!

We spent 2 days at The High Meadows, and it was exquisite! Nancy was one of the most personable people I've met in a long long time. She was a wealth of information on the local area, and the history of the house. The meals were very good, with a majority if not all of the food coming from local sources. The room was perfect, and the bed? Wow. I could have slept forever! I honestly couldn't think of one bad thing to say about this bed and breakfast, and I HIGHLY recommend it if you are in the area and need a place that is a bit off the beaten path.

High Meadows provided us an excellent winter getaway. Food and hospitality were superb. Had a great day at, very close, Monticello.

Warm welcome in an out of the way place. A very different, special and quiet experience in the cottage. Loved the rooster and the train whistle and all the light. Excellent breakfast and local touring guidance. There are restaurants in Scottsville! Spring has sprung here!

My husband and I recently had the good fortune to stay at High Meadows for two nights. It was a Groupon that led us to the Inn, which was a great offer (value). Because the Inn's website has so many pictures, I got a distinct sense of what to expect. I chose this Inn because the fresh wall colors mixed with antiques and contemporary flair. Everything about it was completely charming. Innkeeper/Hostess, Nancy, was a delight, like staying with a very hip grandma! Our room was spacious, with plenty of storage, excellent mattress, and high quality bedding. The many windows (while able to be made private) opened onto a lovely view of the Inn's country setting. The Inn is filled with great books and a scrapbook history of its renovation which I poured over. We walked down a hedged country lane under a full moon and visited the chickens in the morning. The food was superb--country bacon and french toast w/ poached grapefruit one morning; ham and egg frittata the next w/ fresh fruit and banana bread the other. Dinner was salmon with collards (it could have used a side of risotto or something.) If I have any gripes it's that when I called to reserve I double-checked that the fireplaces would be fixed before my arrival and was assured they would be — but they weren't. That was kind of a bummer. The house also occasionally smelled like cabbage which isn't inherently bad, but I did wonder about it. And one day the coffee was a flavored coffee and I just like a regular ‘cuppa Joe. But those complaints were minor in comparison to the beauty and hospitality, as well as its proximity to places I wanted to visit (Barboursville Winery, Madison's Montpelier, Scottsville's outdoor canal museum, Charlottesville's shopping and history, etc.) I would go back in a heartbeat, in part to get to try the other pretty rooms. --Lindsay Curren

Beautiful B&B! The hostess was so wonderful - gave us information on wineries to visit, things to do around town. Amazing food! Wonderful weekend getaway.

Decorations where quite different, but fun and most appealing. Many thanks for a great visit and service.

My wife and I stayed here for a weekend away from home and loved it. It is a great inn, has awesome food, and a very friendly staff. I have alredy recommended it to my co-workers. We stayed in the cottage which has 2 rooms in it. The room was well decorated, the right size, and clean. The only sad part was the fireplaces were out of commission due to the earthquakes. The food (wine and cheese plate and breakfasts) was great. The eggs are from the chickens on propertyand are delicious. We enjoyed the area and the nice quiet break from the I-95 corridor! We'll be back.

We couldn't have had a nicer time at High Meadows. The staff were unflaggingly friendly, helpful, and attentive to our every need, without impinging on our privacy. Our room was comfortable, charming, and pleasantly decorated, with plenty of thoughtful amenities to make up for the house's limitations on modern conveniences. We loved the chickens, peacocks, and cats roaming the grounds, and the beautiful landscaping. And the meals were really delicious and well-made. We were lucky enough to snag a Groupon deal for our weekend, which made our stay an outstanding value for the money.

My wife and I along with another couple recently stayed at High meadows for 2 nights. We did our own vinyard and brewery tour in this beautiful part of VA. High Meadows is a nice setting with a small vinyard (pinot noir) on the property. Some nice grounds to walk around. We made new friends with the two outdoor cats, a peacock, and some pretty cool chickens. The place is quite old and unique. Rooms were very clean and nicely decorated. Our bed was comfortable and the place was nice and warm. Breakfast was wonderful both days. We also got a cheese platter on our first night that was nice. The wine, different cheeses, and fruit were a nice mix. The manager Nancy was very nice and full of info about the area and the historic property. I have stayed at many B&B's and not all of them can pull off making you feel "at home" comfortable like High Meadows did. Great place! Highly recommend staying there. Also, Scottsville had a couple of decent restaurants/bars just down the street from High Meadows!

We found High Meadows Vineyard Inn through Groupon, and it far exceeded our expectations. Nancy greeted us when we arrived and was very friendly and informative about the area. Breakfast was DELICIOUS and filling both mornings -- neither were dishes I would order, but I was pleasantly surprised and more than satisfied. We stayed in Robin's Nest and found it very comfortable and cozy. We woke up one morning and took a nice stroll around the grounds, which include a small vineyard. If you like animals, there were a few friendly cats, a peacock, and some chickens and roosters. I even saw a few deer. We visited some wineries, and if you want to save a few dollars, Nancy has vouchers from several of the surrounding wineries. If you want a true B&B experience, I highly recommend High Meadows Vineyard Inn.

We had a lovely weekend. The place was charming, the service was excellent, and the food very good. Highly recommended!

We came here as a couple and had a relaxing romantic weekend away from the insanity of DC. We've been to a number of B&Bs, and I would say that High Meadows ranks the highest on decor. Our room, the Robin's Nest, looked like it came out of a design magazine. It had the classic feel that you want out of a country B&B but with contemporary details (you won't feel like you're staying at grandma's!). Another highlight was the free wine tasting coupons offered exclusively by the B&B. We loved watching the peacock strut about the property. The breakfast left a little something to be desired (not the stuffed-until-dinner farm breakfast you get at some B&Bs), but we loved that the eggs came straight from the on-site henhouse. We would definitely recommend High Meadows!

This B&B is amazing. The folks here are some of the friendliest people you could hope to meet and count among your friends or even acquaintances. You are given a great opportunity to meet new people and relax in an environment that requires nothing but you commit to relaxing. The rooms are comfortably and decorated with care and attention to detail. The food was very good and very much the surprise of the stay. It is simple food and hearty without being unhealthy. Bonus: There is a Peacock on the property that wanders around and is quite fascinating to watch how it interacts with the cat. If you have an opportunity to visit, stay at least two days and hit the wineries. Enjoy some time away from life....the cottage suite with kitchen was quite convenient and there wine and cheese plate are worth a go if that is your thing. Will be going back soon!

Awesome stay. Location was great for a weekend getaway. Breakfasts were tasty and everyone was friendly. Cannot wait to go back!

We really enjoyed our stay at High Meadows Vineyard Inn. The inn has so much character and the service was wonderful. From the moment we walked in we were given dining recommendations and suggestions on sites to see during our stay. We were given discount coupons to visit the surrounding wineries and directions on how to get there. The breakfast both mornings was absolutely FABULOUS. Not your typical continental breakfast by a long shot. Individually prepared - gourmet meals. Mine was prepared gluten free which was very appreciated and tasted delicious! We would highly recommend High Meadows and would definitely return in the spring or summer.

High Meadows Inn is a perfect place for a getaway. We stayed in the Cottage Suite with a peaceful view of the woods and a small kitchen to make tea and keep some refrigerated items. The grounds are in a country setting with a very pleasant path through the woods to a small pond. All the rooms are wonderfully decorated. Nancy and her daughter Cynthia are exceptional hosts--warm, friendly and fully of helpful tips on things to do in the area. Breakfasts were full of homemade goodness. Will definitely go back. You can't help but have a restful and very enjoyable time here.

High Meadows Inn was the perfect weekend getaway, filled with bright rooms and quirky character. Nancy was very hospitable and provided great information on deals at nearby vineyards and local sights. The beautiful peacock, friendly cats and numerous chickens add a country charm to the place. The food was amazing, from delicious fritatas for breakfast to scrumptiously filled ravioli for dinner, topped with a creamy fruit pasty for dessert. The beds are extremely comfortable (and big) with a sea of pillows you can drown in!

In as much as this was a first experience for me I was not sure what to expect. I was very much impressed by the friendliness of the staff and the breakfast menus! They were well informed of places to go, things to do and best of all, directed us to a wonderful dinner at the C & O restaurant located in nearby Charlottesville, Va. I'm already planning my next years visit!

Although the proprietor wasn't very happy about us coming early, we needed to use the restroom and left promptly, not returning until the check-in time. At that time she was very warm and welcoming, as she was in the morning at breakfast. The breakfasts were wonderful, the two restaurants in town were not elegant but were convenient. The location was fairly central once we found the right roads. The GPS didn't always take the best ones. The cheese platter was very nice as was the bottle of wine on the first night. We took that option since I asked what was on the country dinner menu and was told that they didn't serve dinner. Communications was an issue as the coupon said to call and when I called for a reservation, I was told to go to the website and do it that way. They wouldn't take the reservation over the phone. It was a relaxing, fun way to do the wineries. We'd go again with another coupon.

My husband and I stayed at the inn last week. We we late arriving and had no problem checking in. A delicious wine and cheese tray was served as we relaxed in the room. The bed was very comfortable but the doors to the room and bath were difficult to close (Age of the place). The innkeeper served a delicious breakfast and helped to arrange a tour of the local wineries. A good time was had by all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at High Meadows Inn. We arrived about four on Friday afternoon and walked the grounds before dinner. Breakfasts were excellent, and we enjoyed visiting with the other guests. We stayed in the Daffodil room. The mattress needs replacing (slumps to a V in the middle, and I found myself clinging to the edge trying to avoid rolling), but otherwise we enjoyed the room.

[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews]
We so appreciate feedback from our guests! The Daffodil now has a lovely new mattress - and a rave review from the first guests to try it out! Thank-you again for your honest and helpful feedback.

The innkeeper was very welcoming and super helpful. She knew all about the area and we had a great conversation with her. The GPS winery tour included very different places and was great value and experience.

We spent a very restful weekend at High Meadows . We liked the welcoming and the family-like environment. The setting is perfect for a romantic or reconnecting weekend. It can also suit someone who needs a quiet and a recovery getaway. The cook pays attention to the details of a healthy eating. The manager (Nancy) is caring and very attentive to the needs of her clients. This is really a good hideout for a romantic getaway with outstanding service.

Top notch attention to details that will ensure a warm, comfortable stay: distilled water in room fridge, meals with special touches, and a friendly hostess. Highly recommended!

My wife and I celebrated her birthday at High Meadows and, as always, came home rested and impressed. Nancy does a great job making us "one of the family"...a tremendously wonderful "mini-vacation". The staff at High Meadows is always attentive to the smallest detail from flowers to wine and cheese trays and, of course, fantastic breakfasts!

We enjoyed our stay at High Meadows Vineyard Inn. It was beautifully decorated for the holidays and the room was very comfortable. I would suggest, though, that the inn only include information about a fireplace in the room if it is a working fireplace. We were expecting to enjoy the fireplace based on the room description, but could not.

[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews]
We are so sorry about the fireplaces this season! They are currently out of service until they get a clean bill of health after repairs from the late summer earthquake! We did not notice damage until the first fire was lit in November - and with 4 chimneys and 7 fireplaces, it is taking a little longer than anticipated to restore them.

High Meadows is close to many wineries and the owners couldn't be nicer.

High Meadows Vineyard Inn is a wonderful place. It's conveniently located in the heart of Virginia wine country, and close to so many historical places to visit. The innkeeper, Nancy, serves scrumptious breakfasts, and provides her guests with great information for their daily explorations. The rooms are charming, comfortable and relaxing. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to this area.

I highly recommend this B&B to anyone thinking of making the trip. We had such a great time going in December that I can't even imagine what it would be like when the weather improves. Highly recommend!

Awesome stay...go for the cottage. Food was taste-specific. Bring board games and books because the side walks roll up at 8:30. The B&B was awesome, service was great, rooms were spotless (and I own a cleaning company so my expectations are pretty high). Entire stay was beautiful. Book a wine tour with Don.

From the time we walked in the inn we felt welcome, It was a great experience even though it was our first b and b. The breakfast was great the room was nice and comfortable it was nothing else we could have asked for.

We have stayed at High Meadows now twice and both visits have been great. Nancy is so hospitable and Cynthia is a seriously and OUTSTANDING chef. Will certainly be visiting again.

We stayed at this inn over a weekend in December because the inn had to cancel our stay in the summer--it was worth the wait! The service was very good, the bed comfortable, the rooms roomy and the whole house was nicely decorated for Christmas! The room that we stayed in had an added jacuzi with a toiletroom with a sink in one corner. The toilet room was small but cute. The meal we had on Saturday evening was to die for! The waiter kept the wine coming. Although it wasn't cheap, it was well worth the price. I may have high expectations when I pay these prices, but staying at a B&B is much more relaxing than a hotel! Enjoyed it!

3 couples from Richmond spent 2 nights at High Meadows. We had a great time. Nancy was terrific. We enjoyed the exceptional and unique food, her recommendations for dinner, the reading material in the common area, and the conversations with her. She's so warm, friendly, and 'open.'

We used the inn as our base for wine tasting and it was a perfect weekend. The rooms were nice, the bed was extremely comfortable and the service was excellent. Nancy is very friendly and more than willing to help with any questions you might have. The food was delicious as well. If you are staying in the main house you will be able to hear people speaking in the hallways, but it was easy enough to tune out.

Lovely place, Beautifully decorated without going over the top. Very comfortable room. The small downside was that the bed was really high and we had to ask for a step stool to get in bed! We are an older couple so it was difficult! Once in bed though it was very comfortable with luxurious linens and a cozy down comforter. The room had it's own heating/cooling unit which we didn't use because we like it cool in our bedroom. The breakfasts were wonderful, way above most B&Bs we've stayed in. Cheese, spinach and bacon fritatta one morning and crepes with apples and a cider brown sugar reduction the next. Nice location close to many historic sights and wineries.It's on a few acres and animals roam free, including a peacock which greeted us every morning, preening and looking for a treat! It would have been nice to have been offered a glass of wine and some cheese in the evening, many places we've stayed do offer that amenity. Also, a plate of cookies on arrival would have gone well. There was tea and coffee and hot chocolate available in the common area. It was a bit pricey but we had a Living Social coupon so that helped. Altogether we had a very relaxing and enjoyable visit for 2 nights.

We loved this Bed and Breakfast! I could go on and on about all the grear features. The owner andher daughter make you feel like family. It is quiet enough to feel romantic and alone, yet friendly enough to feel like you are coming home :) THe food is incredible, the decorations are so good I took pictures for my future decorating:), and the land if remarkably beautiful. Everyone should book their trip NOW :)

We went with another recently married couple and had an amazing time at High Meadows. Nancy and her daughter are extremely friendly and even provided us with free tasting cards at vineyards. They are so helpful and the breakfast is amazing! Highly recommended to all!

No need to look any further! This is the best B&B I've ever stayed at. I tend to be wary of B&Bs because they can be either too personal or a little creepy. Nancy runs this B&B and her service couldn't be better. She is there when you need her but doesn't try to be your best friend either. She gave us great coupons for wineries and attractions in the area. The house is lovely and the decorating is phenomenal (her daughter is an interior designer). I went with a group of 6 girls and we had a blast wandering the house and grounds. I stayed in the Robin's Nest room—loved it! My sister stayed in the cottage and also loved that. I can't recommend this more highly! Oh, and breakfast is delicious with tea, coffee and goodies all the time. Lots of beautiful wineries and sites near by.

We enjoyed a delightful breakfast, one of the best we'd ever tasted. The Daffodil room was charming, though we might have preferred a second floor room. The location may feel quite remote at night if you're driving, but it was nice to get away from it all, and there were many vineyards in close and easy driving distance during the day. Altogether, we had a lovely weekend.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay and Nancy is very helpful and knowledgeable of the surrounding area. What an amazing house and a rich history. If there is something you need or don't like for breakfast please let Nancy know as she aims to please.For the guys, don't go thinking you can relax and watch TV as there isn't one....yes you will have to communicate with your wife!

My husband and I stayed in the attic room of the Federal part of the house. It was very quiet, cozy and cute. The round bed was wonderfully comfortable. Nancy was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. Breakfast was delicious - and they met my husband's dietary restrictions with no problems. And my husband was very happy that he could access WiFi from the main part of the house and from our room.

We have stayed at High Meadows twice already and both experiences were great. What a wonderful getaway. Nancy and Cynthia are wonderful hosts and make guests feel very welcome. We will continue to visit our "Virginia home" whenever we get the chance.

This house was decorated so unique, fun, and beautiful. The breakfast (especially those poached eggs) was to die for. Nancy was so friendly and helpful. Absolutely wonderful experience.

We had a wonderful time and loved walking around the house and property. The owners were very sweet and welcoming. We would love to come back again in the winter.

Great place to stay! The Robin's Nest was a fantastic room with a great view of the property from our second story window. The staff was very helpful with local attraction suggestions as well as valuable tips for local restaurants. We would highly recommend the High Meadows Vineyard Inn!!

High Meadows exceeded my expectations in every respect. Only (minor) drawback: it's further from Charlottesville than I thought it would be. But the drive is beautiful in the fall. Definitely wroth the visit. We'll probably go back.

Beautiful setting and facility. Friendly reception. Great breakfast. Absolutely won't allow check-in earlier than 4pm, so go visit one of the local wineries if you get there early. Away from it all. Not much nearby for evening dining, but a lot available within 20 miles.

Thank you for creating such a charming place to stay while visiting Charlottesville. Our room was lovely, we enjoyed the decor throughout the house and the beautiful grounds. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality!

Very nice. Early morning rooster, made sleeping in a challenge.

We loved this eclectic, relaxing inn. Nancy and Cindy were wonderful - the dinners we reserved were better than any restaurant around! Loved the gazebo, the peacock and the animals, and the peace and quiet. We will DEFINITELY come back. For anyone coming, make a dinner reservation - you will not regret it! We also did the wine tour which was lovely, and it was great being driven to all the vineyards. The scones were the best we have ever had. A terrific get-away!

We had a wonderful visit in the cottage. The hosts were great as were the other guests. The bed was the best we ever slept in and the breakfasts were outstanding. It was a great home base for touring the constitution trail of wineries and landmarks. Definitely plan on a repeat of the experience.

Stayed in the Daffadil Room; beautifully decorated with antiques and books; clawfoot bathtub with hand-shower; only suggestion is the need for a new mattress on the bed -- it was very soft with immense sagging in the middle;

Had I known how terrific High Meadows would be, I would have stayed an extra night. The grounds were beautiful- several acres of beautiful gardens, chickens, and even a peackock. The owner was delightful. The food (spinach fritata, scones, fruit, orange juice, and coffer) was delicious. The location was perfect- a short (and scenic) drive from several area wineries, Ash Lawn, and Monticello. Our room was spacious, clean, quaint. The bed was ENORMOUS and super comfortable. I didn't want to ever leave! I would highly recommend High Meadows.

We had a wonderful stay at High Meadows. The entire Inn was beautiful - a great historic home that has been well maintained and beautifully decorated. Our room, the Robins Nest, was lovely, and the bed was comfortable. The owner was welcoming and happy to provide suggestions for things to do in the area. The location in Scottsville was off the beaten path, but still close to all of the local attractions. The food was plentiful and very tasty. Overall a great experience!

We loved the character of this B&B; Nancy was so warm and welcoming and made very delicious breakfasts! We were surprised to see that there was not a TV in the room (which may have been mentioned, but I don't recall), and there were also a few unavoidable bugs in our room (stink bug season; they were everywhere in the area). I would definately consider returing to High Meadows and staying in another fun-ly decorated room!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at High Meadows Vineyard Inn. The food was outstanding. Our room was lovely and Nancy was charming. We will be back. Amanda and Craig Allen

High Meadows Vineyard Inn is located in a beautiful section of Virginia; it is rural and very quiet ( except for the resident rooster) but relatively close to Charlottesville. There are other interesting critters on the property as well - parakeets, a peacock, 2 outdoor cats and a flock of chickens. The Innkeeper is friendly and has great suggestions about places to visit in the area. The breakfasts were superb and they were very willing and able to meet my restrictive dietary needs. The building is historic and decorated both whimsically and with antiques - all in good taste. The bed was very big and high - a stool was needed to get into it, but a little too soft for my taste. It was a ver pleasant stay.

The host could not have been warmer or better informed and ready to share information about area events and facts. This is a happy and friendly place to stay from arrival to departure. The accommodations and grounds are lovely and the breakfast is wonderful. The common area of the main house with its large skylight which bathes the cheerful room in light is a terrific resting place replete with comfortable seating, good books and brochures and great coffee! We loved it. We had read the reviews so rating the various review categories as "meeting our expectations" just confirms all the positive reviews. We would stay here again -- just such a good experience!

My boyfriend and I went to High Meadows for a weekend getaway. Nancy, the owner, was very friendly. The rooms were beautifully decorated. We stayed in the daffodil - yellow walls with light blue accents. I wanted to decorate my own room that way! Everything was very clean and comfortable. My only complaint is that our bed started dipping in the middle so we didn't have a very good night's sleep, but the other guests we talked to didn't have any such problems. Breakfast was sourced from local ingredients and was simple and tasty: cheese-filled crepes covered in a pumpkin sauce with sausage, pear in a ginger cream, and coffee. Overall, if you're truly looking to get away from the city, this is a great place to go. The surroundingings are beautiful, nice for quiet strolls or reading a book. The service was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious.

Loved this place, it was beautiful and breakfast was delicious! I bought a Groupon for a two-night stay and a winery tour/picnic. Not sure I could afford to come back unless I had another discount coupon, but had a wonderful time. Note: the Peony room (where I stayed) has only a tub, no shower, so if you prefer showers (as I do) pay attention to which rooms have what bathing situations :)

Cute and cozy Bed and Breakfast in an old historic house. We highliy reccommend making dinner reservations, it was delicious!

Incredibly hospitable and friendly. Breakfasts were delicious. The inn is beautiful. My only suggestion--a map with a few written instructions for getting to the vineyards would be helpful rather than just an oral presentation. I think both together would be perfect.

Nancy was amazing; the house was incredibly cute and clean. We didn't want to leave, and I definitely plan on coming back for another stay.

Nancy was a delightful hostess and very warm and welcoming. With many helpful suggestions on places to go and things to do, and some great relationships with nearby vineyards, our stay was everything we hoped it would be. Cynthia's meals were simple, elegant and delicious. Her breakfasts got us off to a good start on the day and the picnic lunch she packed for our day of winetasting was just perfect for the day! All in all, i would certainly return to this oasis in the countryside.

We stayed at this inn for the weekend. Nancy and her Daughter run this beautiful, colorful inn. One of the downsides was there were tons of cob webs outside the house, which needs a little bit more up keep. They work very hard, had great recommendations for wineries, Pippin Hill Vineyard had the best views, relaxation and food, it’s a must visit. We also visited the First Colony; the wine there was quite unique. We enjoyed a nice dinner at Amici’s in Scottsville. The inn has a Peacock, Rabbit and a few friendly cats. They also have chicken, which we got to taste some fresh eggs Sunday for breakfast. The food was very good and plentiful. We even got the chance to have breakfast outside on the side patio one morning. The inn was full of guests so the inn keepers were rather busy, we hardly got to talk to the daughter but spoke to Nancy one night for a while. She is very nice, highly active in the local community and enjoys her time there. We stayed in the Daffodil room, very spacious and beautifully painted. However the mattress on the queen bed needs to be replaced, as it sunk in the middle, which didn’t give us a good night sleep. It was uncomfortable. The room was furnished with beautiful antique furniture and a claw foot bathtub. I was told that this room doesn’t have a spare key and that the inn keeper forgot to ask me to leave it unlocked, which resulted in our bed not being made when we got back Saturday evening. It would have been nice if it was made up. It’s such a beautiful room. There is no cell phone service in this area. The Inn claims free internet access for guests, but there is no Wi-Fi signal in the bedrooms. You have to go to the beautiful back porch to get a bit of signal. I’d recommend the inn keepers to provide wireless internet signal in the rooms as well. Either way, this is one of the best places to unplug and unwind. I would visit again and would recommend it to a friend! If you are in the area, you should stop by!

So glad you liked the Daffodil! It's my mother's favorite room - it's so cheerful and sunny. Because we are a rural inn, modern technology is sometimes difficult to come by here...no cable, for example. Cell phone service we DO have - unless you are an ATT subscriber...other service is consistent: USCellular, Verizon and Ntelos all get service here, and of course we have an inn landline phone that guests are welcome to use. WiFi is received in some rooms - and always in the central public spaces. Spiders - well, they do come out at night...and despite their being swept away every day, their work reappears without fail every morning. Such hard work - we will work harder to keep the webs at bay. Thank you for your observations!

We had a really nice coming back experience. It is a fantastic B&B, though, at full price that we paid our first time, it seem a little steep. Our second time we were offered a 24hr period to book a room at half price, except holiday weekend. At half price, it was trully completely worth it. Nancy is very accomdating when it comes to directions, things to do, places to visit. However, she can be very bossy, and not as sweet as one might expect.

This a great bed and breakfast it has very nice historic feel.

Every time that we return to High Meadows . . . we enjoy it more and more. The rooms are great, the food exquisite and the company of Nancy & Cynthia make the trip superlative ! We'll return again and again, so don't you miss the chance !

The place is beautiful is the perfect place for a relaxing and romantic getaway. My boyfriend booked a night and I told him that it's been the best gift he have gave me :). The room was big, clean, private and with nice decorations. It's also very close to the wineries and the town.

This was our first bed abd breakfast experience and it was OUTSTANDING! The meal were excellent and so was the hospitality. Hoping to go in the springtime again.

To begin with, the breakfasts were superb; the woman who does the cooking here could work at a Michelin starred restaurant, but I'm really glad she doesn't! The rooms were immaculate, the atmosphere was very quiet and pleasant, the grounds are well maintained, and the location, while off the beaten path, is perfectly located for anyone wishing to tour the many wineries of the area, or simply have a peaceful base of operations for exploring nearby Charlottesville. If I had to offer any criticism, it would be that the quiet is enforced by a complete lack of soundproofing; any noise above a very low conversational tone can be heard throughout the house. Of course, this is not unexpected, given the historic building, which is nicely appointed, attractively decorated, and well maintained. Our hosts were extremely accommodating, well organized, and the picnic lunch they prepared for us was a wonderful accent to a perfect day. High Meadows Inn takes pains to ensure good relationships with neighboring wineries, and the morning begins with a nice rundown of many of the opportunities available for shopping, eating, and of course, wine tasting. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to anyone!

Inn keeper (Nancy) was very knowledgeable of Scottsville and the surrounding area as well as the history of the inn. The "Vineyard" was still in its infancy and non-producing. It was quiet and peaceful surrounded by various farm animals. Food was outstanding. Nice area and close to Charlottesville and several vineyards.

What attracted us to this inn was the colorful charm. It did not disappoint. The curator did a great job of creating a whimsical atmosphere in a historic building. We stayed in the Robin's Nest room (the blue one). Very comfortable bed. The caretaker is an excellent cook. Breakfast on day 1 was eggs benedict and some amazing scones. Day 2 was crepes. Fresh squeezed orange juice on both days. In addition to a great start to our days, we got good tips for local restaurants and picnic spots. The peacock is shy, but we did get a few pictures. The vineyard does not look like it will be producing wine any time soon, but it added to the sense of place as well.

High Meadows Inn was extremely charming. The house itself is decorated nicely and the food was fantastic! We especially enjoyed the packed lunch at the vineyards. The only downside would be the location. We were expecting it to be on a hill with a view, or at least a working vineyard, but instead it was just a house on a typical property. However, it is close enough to Charlottesville and I would also recommend it for those who are strong wine enthusiasts.

Just wanted to pass on my thanks to Nancy at High Meadows for our wonderful stay we just had. The value of what we got from what we paid with Groupon was amazing. When we arrived Nancy met us very warmly and explained everything we should expect from our two night stay. We had dinner at the two restaurants where they have deals with in nearby Scottsville. The pizza place, Slice of Heaven, was very good. The young lady who owns it is very nice and cordial. One of the highlights for sure was the breakfasts...we had baked peaches with a great cream sauce followed by berry crepes the first day and chocolate scones and a fritata the last morning. Both meals were amazing. The wine tours are also fun. Nancy packed us a picnic lunch (again, very good) and we spent the day touring the many wineries in the area. Nancy has deals with many of them so all of your wine tastings are free. Our favorite winery was the Blenheim Vineyards which happens to be owned by the musician Dave Matthews. Wineworks was also great-very friendly staff. Nancy gave us a GPS with all of the wineries plugged in as Favorites which made navigating to the next one easy. As another bonus, our stay included two passes to Monticello which we stopped at on our way home. The grounds are beautiful with a roaming peacock and chickens and a couple very laid back cats. We had aftershocks from the recent earthquake on our first night and the place held up great! Overall, a great stay and highly recommend it. Thanks again, Nancy! Tom & Sandra D.

Rooms -- Each of the rooms offer a lot of privacy and are uniquely designed so that your stay offers you a personalized experience from the rest of the residents. The room was spectacularly clean and you are provided with all of the amenities you need. Food -- The food was spectacular. The main host, Nancy, takes every opportunity to ask you for any dietary restrictions and gloats about using the freshest produce (organic when possible), freshest eggs, and meats purchased from a local butcher. (That's incredibly impressive when you're driving in from the city.) Nancy also gloats that they try very hard to create a breakfast that you normally wouldn't take the time to fix yourself if you were home. At our stay we had crepes the first morning and eggs benedict for the second morning for the regular menu, and my girlfriend who has multiple allergies, was given fresh fruit and oatmeal and an egg white omelet. Also, they take the time to make you a fully packed lunch for the second day so that you have food on your day of exploration. Experience -- Nancy collects everyone at breakfast and then tells you what you should expect. She gives you coupons for free wine tastings and directions on how to get to each of the local wineries. She offers you information, such as: best tasting, most popular, environmental practices, etc… Also, for those who are a little more directionally challenged, she offers to lend you a GPS. If seeing the historical sites is more up your alley, she also offers to book your tour on your behalf. Overall Character -- You can't say enough about how unique this place is. Great story for you to read on how this place came to be on the historical registry. And, the best surprise of all, Pretty Bird, the resident peacock who has a distasteful habit of eyeing you through the outside window if you use the lobby bathroom.

Exceedingly pretty, clean and comfortable rooms and grounds. Friendly hosts. Nice breakfast. I think most people would like this place as long as they are flexible and just want to read and chat and maybe sip a little wine. (The flexible part comes with 'going with the flow' rather than imposing individual tastes, etc. Now that I have stayed there I can see why that might have been an issue like some previous reviewers have claimed, in spite of the somewhat defensive responses from the innkeepers. We smiled, kept our mouths shut and took what we got, and all was well. With B&Bs I think that is standard.)

We just used our Groupon at High Meadows and loved it. This was my third time there and it's even better than I remembered. The house is beautifully decorated and our room in the cottage was comfortable and luxurious. Nancy's breakfasts were delicious and we enjoyed visiting Monticello and the wineries nearby.

Beautiful scenic landscape, with friendly hosts, and a peacock! They even have a GPS for wine tastings so you won't get lost.

Good location, about twenty minutes from Charlottesville. Sit back and relax. Good restaurants close by.

We are regulars, now. We go to stay with Nancy every year. We've been in fall, for my wife's birthday, in summer for our anniversary, and now in mid-August just to get away. It was perfect each time. There is always something delicious to eat and the grounds are lovely. There are tons of wineries around and plenty of antique shops. Scottsville has a couple of restaurants and a supermarket so you don't have to feel too isolated, if you're from the city like we are. But the remoteness of it is one of its best qualities! I hope you enjoy it as much as we have!!

The innkeeper was very cordial and informative regarding local wineries and restaurants in the area. The dinner we had there was exceptional, as my husband put it, the best steak he ever had and we've been to some more well know chain and highly regarded local eateries in DC area. The portions are appropriated size and the breakfast are good and filling with fresh squeezed orange juice.

An enjoyable 2 days spent touring the local vineyards and Monticello. The Innkeeper's daughter is an excellent chef, both of our breakfasts were outstanding and creative, and the bag lunch was huge, we didn't need dinner that day! The Inn is quaint, clean, homey; we are both so happy with the experience! I recommend it highly, especially if you are interested in touring 3 presidential homes in the area, and at least a dozen wineries!

We didn't know what to expect, since it was the first time staying in a Bed&Breakfast, but it will not be the last. Nancy and her son took great care of us, oh, and her daught, the chef. Dining was exquisite!!! We have absolutely no complain at all. Thank you!!

We stayed in the Peony room for our 10th anniversary and had a wonderful time. The hosts were very informative and nice as could be. They knew when to be helpful and when to let you be. Dinner and breakfast were wonderful. The picnic lunch packed for us was great. Definitely hope they continue to do that as we thoroughly enjoyed eating it on the deck of Blenheim Winery, overlooking their vineyards. We would definitely visit this place again. We were amazed at how many vineyards are in that area and look forward to visiting more that we couldn't get to. Hopefully the Inn will offer free tastings to different wineries in the future, so that those of us returning can visit different ones.

We really enjoyed our stay at the High Meadows Vineyard Inn. Our innkeeper, Nancy, was very outgoing and attentive to our needs. The inn was very clean and beautifully decorated.

The food was wonderful, the hosts made you feel right at home. Friendly family atmosphere. We would gladly come back. If you want to stay here while you take wine tours its will meet your expectations. I wouldn't recommend this inn if your looking for a place that you would be able to enjoy your room and the inn all day -

Our stay was wonderful-the inn keeper can be a little grumpy (I feel like I got scolded a lot) but makes sure all is well and keeps things relaxing and simple. The rooms are darling and very clean-we stayed in the Peony and LOVED the jacuzzi! There are no TVs, so don't expect to lay around all day watching it. We had a great time wandering the grounds and petting all the animals, wine tasting, and exploring Charlottesville (about 20 miles away). Highly recommend a stay here. Breakfasts were delicious!

When I saw this deal on groupon I knew I had to get this for me and my boyfriend to get out of the city. We reserved 'the daffodil' room from a Wednesday until Friday. When we got there we were taken back with how lovely the entire house was especially our room which was incredible. A beautiful room with a great view of the front garden and a giant tub and fireplace. Upon arriving, nancy invited us to peak in some of the other rooms before the other guests checked in. We scoped out the two rooms on the top floor- the robins nest and the willow- which were also quite gorgeous. We then meandered around the grounds which had a bunch of really friendly animals including a peacock! Their vineyard included about 6 rows of vines which was nice to walk through but unfortunately they didn't have any bottled wine from their grapes. Soon though is the rumor. Breakfasts at the inn were more than impressive (blueberry crepes one morning, eggs benedict the next) all with farm fresh ingredients. Nancy was unbelievably helpful and we loved talking to her. We then took our prepackaged lunch and our tasting coupons and headed out for the day. Our lunch was, again, quite impressive. I'm already emailing them for receipes! nancy also helped us out the next day by making our monticello reservations and getting us the time we wanted despite them being sold out. I can't rave enough about this place and will absolutely consider coming back not to mention recommending them to anyone traveling near charlottesville!

The room was fantastic as were the grounds. We ate every bit of breakfast and the FANTASTIC picnic lunch. The location is perfect just outside of Charlottesville and right in the middle of multiple wineries. Say hello to Chester and Triscuit the cat when you go! We cannot wait to go back!

I recently spent two nights at High Meadows w my spouse and we loved it. From the brightly decorated rooms, to the amazing beds, scenery and lovely food, it was just what the doctor ordered. Leaving I felt completely serene and happy. Would come back again in a heartbeat. Don't come if you are expecting a hotel experience w tvs, vending machines and working on your computer all day long. This place is all about relaxation. Nancy our hostess also gave us great tips on local wineries and other places to see (farms, orchards, etc.).

My husband and I spend 2 nights here. It was peaceful and relaxing. It was nice to get away without the kids. If you're looking for a place to relax this is it!

I was pleasantly surprised at every turn. Host was courteous. Food was great! Other guests were fascinating to talk to. The wine tour and picnic that came with our package were first rate! Host's local knowledge was terrific! Italian restaurant half a mile from the inn was inexpensive and delicious! There were also lots of things to do: tubing, Montecello (home of US President, T. Jefferson), wine tasting, and berry picking. Hilltop winery/berry farm was a particular quirky delight!

Beautiful, comfortable room, incredible food and a delightful peaceful atmosphere. Our hosts were friendly and available but not hovering. Amazing attention to detail from tablecloths on the patio to coping with my husband's food allergy. Will definitely go again.

Nancy runs a spectacular bed and breakfast. We stayed in the cottage, which has a nice little deck, and a small kitchen, which was perfect for storing wine out of the sweltering heat. Food was great, and Nancy was great with recommendations, she even loaned us her GPS since cell phone reception around Scottsville/Charlottesville isn't great.

We had a great time staying here. My wife and I cannot wait until we can come back, especially in the Fall. We loved the scenery day and night. We saw lots of wildlife and loved the light show from the fireflies. The breakfast was fantastic! We also liked the fact that it was close to Blenheim Vinyards and Downtown Scottsville.

Nancy Bruce is a dream of an Innkeeper. She enjoys engaging in helpful and interesting conversation with her guests. She provides an organized presentation on what to do in the area that will can fill your visit with exciting opportunities.

We enjoyed our stay here despite a few little glitches. The place is neat, clean, artsy. Nancy is friendly and informative. The food was exceptional at breakfast. Our dinner there was missing something, perhaps a bit more zing to the salad (being summer the availability of great local produce would not be an issue) and another side. What we had was tasty, but for the price could be better. We would recommend it to friends and family.

Really enjoyed the free wine tastings at nearby vineyards which were part of this package. Very beautiful countryside.

One of the nicest B&Bs I've stayed in for a long time. Dinner (optional) was fixed price and exceptionally good. Bed was a bit soft for my taste (and back) but apart from that a lovely place.

A warm and friendly inn. The room was lovely and they did the best they could creating an en suite bathroom in a very old house.The breakfasts were creative and delicious. An unexpected surprise was a totally fabulous picnic lunch provided for us to take along. Nancy gave us wonderful information about the wineries and proved to be a most gracious host.

I am very pleased with the choice that I made to stay at the Inn. There were several places that I looked at and am glad I chose High Meadows. Nancy was very personable and made me feel as if I were home. My visit was very relaxing and cosy as I was able to work and relax at the same time. I feel in love with Virginia and High Meadow's hospitality. I'm already planning my next visit. Thank you Nancy.

Nancy was extremely nice. She was very informative and very welcoming. We will definitely be coming back here again.

My wife and I spent two nights at High Meadows with friends from Florida. We shared the cottage. Our overall stay was great! The high point of our stay was a dinner for four Friday night. We brought some great wines from our collection with us and enjoyed them with our friends and our server. The service was wonderful and the flow of the meal was perfect. Food quality was great, (beef, lamb and pork) . We enjoyed two breakfasts at the inn. Both were excellent! The grounds and gardens are being maintained and trees were being trimmed. No problems for the guests. (The staff allowed us to get some cuttings and plants for our garden at home. Roanoke VA) The chickens and other animals add to the experience. We had no problems with any of the live stock being too friendly or fussy. The science of transitioning new chicks to a new coupe was fun to watch. The massage is a very good value and the masseuse brings much appreciated professional suggestions to your experience and health. (We will be return customers.) We also did a Brewery Tour through a local service (not the normal tour). The staff at High Meadows arranged this for us, all was fine. (Next trip we will very likely drive our selves.) As far as value we were pleased to be included the spring special and were impressed with the value we received from our stay. If you are looking for good food and a quiet place to enjoy a few days of rural life, High Meadows is our choice. We will do it again soon.

This was my first experience at a B&B, so I was a bit wary, but it was simply a terrific experience. The place is gorgeous--inside and out--the owners have taken care to keep it looking modern and unique, so you really feel like you are in a different world. It is kept very clean, and the rooms themselves are just to die for. We stayed in the Robin's Nest, which is on the second floor of the main house, and it was decked out in blue with a "robin" theme. It included a bathroom with a shower stall, which was really convenient. The animals (especially the peacock), which are kept outside provide lots of entertainment as well! We only met Nancy, who was so warm and friendly. The breakfasts were unique and delicious. The location is a very quaint town on the James River about 25 minutes away from Charlottesville. We spent one of our days in Charlottesville and the other touring the local vineyards. Nancy provided us with lots of information on the various vineyards and wineries, so we could decide where to go. Overall, we had a wonderful experience--we would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick getaway (especially from DC). There is so much to do and see out in this area, and coming back to the B&B in the evenings was very relaxing. We will definitely come here again!

Wonderful place to stay. Nancy and Cynthia are terrific. You will be amazed at the service and it's close to all wineries.
