    Anne Hathaway's Cottage went beyond what I have experienced at other Bed and Breakfasts. It was a delightful environment that provided great rest and relaxation. It was within walking distance of historic Staunton and the service could not have been improved on. The cost of staying there was not much more than staying at some hotels yet you would never get the personal touch.

    Enjoyed our stay and would return

    The first night we stayed we had the place to ourselves and enjoyed a quite evening together. The following morning, we were served a half a grapefruit some homemade breads for breakfast and an english muffin. It was good enough but I was expecting a hot meal rather than a continental breakfast. We ate an early lunch (eat at the Pampered Palate, it is a great value) and walked around town a good part of the day exploring. We were made to feel very welcome by the locals. My wife blew her own glass Christmas ornament which she enjoyed and we rode the town trolley, which was a little ghetto. The driver was a great guy but I have to say that in spite of his best efforts, we did feel a little uncomfortable when he had to tell us to look at him rather than look at this guy getting off the trolley. We would not use the trolley again. We hung out at the B&B for a while to read/relax in the common room and later, we drove back into town even though the trolley could have taken us and did a little Christmas shopping and ate at Emilio's. Dinner quality was in line with the price but the waitress did not seem to get that I was looking for a little help on the wine menu. I could tell she knew a little about it but I cold not get her to give me a straight recommendation. We drove back to the B&B and retired for the evening as my wife was tired from walking most of the day. We got up the final morning and had a breakfast much more in line with what I expected, quiche, bacon and cut fruit. The quiche was store bought which surprised me given how easy it is to make but it was decent enough. The best part of the trip was that they have good tea out all the time. Oddly enough, we enjoyed this part the most and was a major factor (in addition to the nice common area) in us choosing this B&B a second time. We will be back.

    Absolutely Charming!

    Spent a delightful night at Anne Hathaway's Cottage and would have spent a week if I could. Perfect in every way – very close to downtown, comfortable and convenient room, wonderful and helpful hostess, fabulous decor, and a sweet kitty to keep me company as I sat on the couch and read. I felt so at home! The Juliet Room was lovely and the bathroom had plenty of room and good water pressure. Each room is individually climate controlled, plus I could open the diamond-paned windows for some crisp fall air. This is definitely the place to stay in Staunton. I'll be back!

    This is an incredible B&B, the attention to detail is staggering and it was extremely comfortable - truly unique! The owner and staff were amazingly helpful, friendly and welcoming. It really is like staying in an English Country home. Staunton centre is but a 10 minute walk with lovely restaurants and a great place to explore. The only minus point was the breakfast - considering the outstanding nature of the B&B it fell rather short and was meagre - don't let this put you off though, it was exceptional apart from that!!

    Just what I needed

    I wanted a place, for one night, where I could spend some time alone with my thoughts and reading books in one of my favorite time period settings. After my stay, I felt refreshed, renewed, and energized. The room was immaculate, the bed restful, the bathroom and shower relaxing, and the setting refreshing. Juliette was a gracious hostess. I am hoping to go back for a longer visit next year.
