    Dana was very accomodating in our last minute reservation. Just what we needed for quiet and relaxation. The home and grounds were beautiful and the service was fantastic. Can't wait to go back for a longer stay!

    Pleasurable stay, the staff was great. The room was very cozy. The breakfast was delicious. Will come back again. And by the way, we received ice.

    It's difficult to be concise about Longacre: there is so much to rave about. In addition to being a beautiful Tudor-style home with a lovely garden and grounds, it's conveniently located in the heart of beautiful Appomattox, where there are a great many attractions, not the least of which is the site famous for bringing the Civil war to an end and beginning the process of re-uniting our country. Dana Mayberry and her mom, Renee, have created a comfortable, friendly atmosphere in a truly beautiful place, regardless of which room you stay. For many reasons, and all of them the right reasons, put Longacre at the top of your list and enjoy Dana and Renee's hospitality and accommodations.


    A great time!

    We had a very nice stay at Longacre. The innkeepers were very friendly and full of information. The breakfast was great as well. The reason for only giving "service" three was because we needed a bucket of ice and there was no one to get it for us and the kitchen was locked.

    Innkeeper Response
    We are so happy that you had a great stay..we are sorry that you were unable to get a bucket of ice but we always have our cell number in the rooms and in the den at the house phone so that we can be reached at any time should anything at all be needed..we always tell the guest this at check in , we always keep the kitchen and private quarters locked but are always available by phone if you can not find us right away...

    The Longacre B&B is a beautiful turn-of-the-century home! It was a convenient location for visiting the historical Appomattox Courthouse village where General Lee surrendered. The house and the grounds have been well-maintained by the proprietor and her family. The warm welcome and generous, hospitable service we received while there could not have been better.
