    Great!

    May 10, 2013

    We had a great time there, the house is beautiful with plenty of details and very well kept and clean, my two daughters thought they were in a princess castle, they loved it! The breakfast was very good also, and the housekeepers very nice and attentive.

    This is a good location with easy access to Staunton and Charlottesville. Lots to do in the area with the Blue Ridge Parkway and Frontier Culture Museum. Great breakfast and clean rooms.

    Hidden Gem

    April 29, 2013

    After a long day of hiking in the mountains, the Belle & Hearth was the absolutely perfect place to rest. The bed was comfortable, the room temperature was consistent (as opposed to those hot / cold / hot hotel rooms), the decor was lovely,and the living room was welcoming. The two kitties are very friendly, and were very willing to give me a nice bit of "kitty love" during my stay. Breakfast was quite filling and very tasty, and a perfect way to start another day in the mountains. If I could have stayed longer, I would have!

    Excellent stay with friendly owners

    February 14, 2013

    My husband and I stayed at Belle Hearth for two nights. Linda and Wayne were excellent hosts and very helpful in recommending local attractions. We stayed in the Rose Room, which was both quaint and clean. Breakfast both mornings was delicious and the couple was accommodating of my pregnancy food restrictions. Linda and Wayne are excellent conversationalists and we really enjoyed dining with the other guests.

    Surprise Birthday Weekend Getaway

    December 05, 2012

    OUTSTANDING B&B!! Visited Walton Mountain Museum in Schuyler and Monticello in Charlottesville on separate days - based out of Belle Hearth. REALLY felt like we were coming home each night. Checked in at the end of an Open House day - Linda was STILL friendly, gracious, and gave us a full tour of her beautiful home (even the empty rooms), including details about the history of the home. We stayed in the Magnolia Room - but any room would have been totally comfortable. Bed was very comfortable - linens were top quality. Wayne and Linda prepared and served a scrumpious breakfast each day; well-paced and each item was delicious. One guest in another party had special dietary needs - he was accommodated effortlessly. These innkeepers obviously care about their guests and their beautiful home, and work hard to ensure you have an unforgettable experience. We like to try different B&Bs - but Belle Hearth is SO good, we'll stay there again when we visit this area.

    A Perfect Getaway

    November 07, 2012

    My husband and I used the Belle Hearth B&B as our base of operations during our honeymoon - our room was lovely, the food was spectacular, the atmosphere was homey Victorian, the location was incredibly convenient, and our hosts were extremely friendly and gracious. It couldn't have been bettered.

    Anniversary Getaway

    October 22, 2012

    We had a wonderful and very relaxing stay at the Belle Hearth. The food was amazing and Linda and Wayne were wonderful hosts. They spent enough time with you to make you feel welcome but didn't intrude on your privacy at all. Will definitely consider staying there again if we are in the area. Marvelous collection of antiques.
