Ridge View Bed & Breakfast


  • Inn Details

    We are currently a green lodging accommodation. We recycle all that we are able. Since we try to conserve water towels and sheets are not washed each day. Built circa 1887, with later additiions, Ridge View is a beautifully restored farmhouse located on 17 rolling acres with panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Our B&B is nestled in Madison County, Virginia, on one of America's ten most outstanding scenic byways - Virginia Byway Route 231.

    Returning to the Virginia Blue Ridge mountains brought back a flood of good memories. The stay at the Ridge View B&B enhanced all those memories and then some!
