    Afton Mountain was the perfect place for our winter getaway. Beautiful and quiet location, but still convenient to wineries, Monticello, etc. Cozy room with super-comfy bed. And banana pancakes with cinnamon syrup that I'm still dreaming about. We can't wait to go back in hiking season!

    My wife and I stayed at the Afton Mountain B&B for our anniversary weekend. We had a great time. The breakfasts are delicious and filling. The rooms are both beautifully decorated and comfortable. Our bed was so comfortable, it was tough waking up in the morning. (Considering that I don't sleep well away from home, that's saying something.) Finally, Afton Mountain B&B is perfectly situated for visiting the wineries and breweries along the VA-151 corridor. Because we like to visit new places, my wife and I don't often plan on staying at the same B&B twice, but Afton Mountain is on our list for future stays. We highly recommend it.

    A real Virginian welcome

    On holiday from England we felt that we wanted to experience what we thought was a typical Virginian home and with Afton Mountain B&B we certainly did. The house is both beautiful and historic, even for a Brit! We loved everything about this place from the setting to the delightful porch and the very comfortable bedrooms/ The hosts Dan and Orquida were very hospitable and went out of their way to make our stay has pleasant as possible. We stayed for 3 nights and each morning could not wait to come down for breakfast to see what superb food was on offer that day. Everything was fresh and as local as possible and was extremely delicious, I have never tasted nicer waffles! In addition to having a nice spacious bedroom we were free to use the sitting room with internet access and the room across the hall if you cared to watch TV or play games.Sitting on either the front or rear porch eating the complimentary cookies was an experience not to be missed, as was the lovely swimming pool! An atmosphere of friendliness pervades the whole inn and I whole heartedly recommend staying there if you ever visit this glorious part of Virginia!

    We had a wonderful stay at your B&B. Our bedroom was very cozy and comfortable, and we really enjoyed the satellite radio. Orquida and Dan were so friendly and attentive to all our needs. The breakfast was great, and the pool was so refreshing after a long day of driving. We also enjoyed sitting on the upstairs covered porch watching and listening to a thunderstorm. We hope to come back and visit again in the future. The Bakers
