    My daughter and I drove up to visit the Blue Ridge Mountains just before Christmas and we stayed 4 nights at Belle Hearth. We were very pleased and impressed with our stay. The inn owners were lovely people and very helpful. The inn was absolutely gorgeous and the food outstanding. We got a very good rate on our room and were charmed to have a fireplace in our own room. Can't say enough about Belle Hearth, would definitely recommend it!

    My husband and I were sampling our way through the "Brew Ridge Trail" and looking for a place to crash for the night. Belle Hearth was perfect for what we needed. Linda and Wayne kindly accommodated our semi-late (8:30pm arrival) and were very gracious hosts. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was outstanding!

    We stayed at the Belle Hearth during a weekend getaway with a group of friends. The owners were so friendly and made us feel so welcome. The house is nicely decorated. I felt like I was staying at a friends house. Breakfast was wonderful. We will definitely be staying here again during our next trip to the mountains for wine tastings and fun.
