About Williamsburg
Find the perfect Williamsburg Virginia Bed and Breakfast Inn and B&B's. Bed and Breakfasts and Inns are the most unique way to travel. Williamsburg was the thriving capital of Virginia when the dream of American freedom and independence was taking shape and the colony was a rich and powerful land stretching west to the Mississippi River and north to the Great Lakes. Today, Williamsburg is a simple, quiet college town, home of the College of William and Mary and still teems with the history of the American Revolution. Lodging and accommodations for your ideal family vacation is available from more than two dozen wonderful bed and breakfasts, inns and hotels. Many museums and galleries have exhibits that depict early life in the American colonies. The DeWitt Wallace Museum has a renowned collection of American and English furniture, silver, ceramics, paintings and weapons. The Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Fold Art Museum was the first museum dedicated to American folk art. Tour Bassett Hall, a two-story, 18th-century frame house located on 585 acres of gardens and rolling woodlands. Bassett Hall is the house that John D. Rockefeller Jr. and his wife Abby Aldrich Rockefeller made their home during the early restoration of the Historic Area. Visit Carter's Grove, which was home to Virginia's earliest settlers in the 1600's. Take home some history as you shop in the Historic Area and the Merchants Square shops. You'll find three-cornered hats and decorative bonnets, quills and ink, block printed stationery and sealing wax, candles, soaps, hams, jams, brass, pewter and jewelry in the shops, and can cap off the day by dining in the Merchants Square restaurants.
