    Lovely Home and Caretakers

    May 10, 2013

    Lynn and Joyce have a lovely home and their service and friendliness was outstanding. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and pleasing to look at. The grounds were well kept and was home to a number of birds, butterflies, and chipmunks. The food was homemade and tasty, this coming from a fairly picky eater, and the two of them were more than happy to accomodate my gluten free needs. If you are down that way for a wedding or need a retreat, I wholly recommend Uphill.

    Weekend getaway

    May 06, 2013

    This was our first stay in a B&B and it could not have gone any better. Lynn and Joyce were so friendly and helpful. They guided us to a number of wineries in the local area, recommended restaurants for dinner and other local events. Their home was lovely and the full English breakfast was fantastic. We will definitely visit again.

    A Pleasant Spring Getaway

    April 07, 2013

    We stayed for two nights at Uphill House in the Winscombe Room. The room was inviting, and the entire inn was spotless. Lynn even put chocolates on our pillow. She was very accommodating especially when it came to breakfast and our afternoon treats. If I'm ever back in the Charlottesville area, I will return to Uphill. :-)

    Can't wait to go again!!!

    November 25, 2012

    Lynn and Joyce were amazing! I can't say enough good about our hostesses and their home. The ladies went over and above the call of duty. We had special food requirements that were not just tolerated but truly caterted to. It was so nice to see my mother enjoy all the goodies prepared just for her. Their home was spotless! Best sheets I have ever slept on! Robes were great! Beans on toast.....YUUUMMMMM!!!! Truly the best B&B I have experienced. Paul and Michelle Mwema

    Lynn and Joyce run an impeccably clean, beautifully appointed B&B. There are delicious treats all the time, including local wine and homemade peanut-butter balls. A perfect stay!

    Perfect getaway for couples!

    August 13, 2012

    There are many bed and breakfast inns in the Barboursville/Charlottesville area but Joyce and Lynn are the real treasure at this B&B tucked in the woods! The food was wonderful (and so much of it!) and the added touch of the wine and cheese set out in the afternoon really made us feel at home. We even went out to dinner our first night and came back with leftovers which Lynn and Joyce graciously held for us in their fridge :) Lynn and Joyce recommended wineries in the area during our stay and even on our way out of town arranged for us to have more complimentary tastings at Prince Michel and Early Mountain Vineyards. The Uphill House truly gave us an enjoyable experience that we will be sure to remember.
