Inn Details

Located in an elegantly restored Queen Anne Victorian, the Joshua Wilton House offers guests an oasis of quiet charm and gracious living in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley.

The Inn features five non-smoking bedrooms that have been decorated and furnished with beautiful antiques and reproductions.

The Restaurant offers a unique and exquisite รก la carte menu that changes with the seasons, along with an award-winning wine list. Featured are the food products of many small local farms who supply our kitchen with high quality ingredients that simply cannot be found elsewhere. Executive Chef Mark Newsome's philosophy of cooking is to present these wonderful products in a fashion that allows their natural goodness to shine through. During the warmer months, seating is available on the outdoor brick patio. Reservations are strongly encouraged, especially on weekends. Smoking is permitted outside only. The restaurant is open from 5:00 PM, Tuesday through Saturday.
