October 2013


Historic Rockwood Manor 
Bed and Breakfast
Dublin, VA
October 30 - November 1st

The Red Chair Travels was thrilled to hear that the next stop on its journey was to the Historic Rockwood Manor.  Once the Red Chair turned down the tree lined drive to the Bed and Breakfast, Red felt like it was instantly transported into the movie Gone with the Wind!  This 130 year old, 10,000 square foot home sits upon 68 secluded acres in the heart of the New River Valley.  Needless to say the Red Chair was right at home here!

The Vine Cottage Inn
Hot Springs, VA
October 27-29th, 2013

When the Red Chair Travels arrived at the Vine Cottage Inn in Hot Springs, VA, Red couldn't help but notice the beauty and simple elegance of this historic country inn.  Located in the Allegheny Highlands in Bath County, the Vine Cottage Inn sits perfectly for the traveller who is looking to visit the famous therapeutic hot springs and the gorgeous mountain vistas!  Well of course we know that the Red Chair was thrilled about hearing that!

The Red Lantern Inn
Clifton Forge, VA
October 24-26th, 2013

Bella, the Inn's English Bulldog mascot, greeted the Red Chair Travels as it arrived at the beautiful Red Lantern Inn in Clifton Forge, VA.  This 100 year old building was completely renovated to its current casual and comfortable accommodations.  Red loved how close the Inn was to everything in the surrounding area!

The Hummingbird Inn
Goshen, VA
October 21-23rd, 2013

Number 43 on the cross country journey brought the Red Chair to the beautiful Hummingbird Inn in Goshen, Va.  Sitting just to the West of the scenic Goshen Pass and laying on the edge of the Shenandoah Valley the Red Chair found no shortage of amazing views here.  One of Reds favorite things it learned here was that the room Red stayed in was the same room that Eleanor Roosevelt was in when she stayed back in 1935!

The Iris Inn
Waynesboro, VA
Oct 18-20th, 2013

Colorful fall foliage was in full swing when the Red Chair arrived at the beautiful Iris Inn in Waynesboro, VA.  With new friend, Katie the Inn's border collie, the Red Chair explored the scenic Shenandoah Valley!

Holladay House Bed & Breakfast
Orange, VA
October 15-17th

The Red Chair found itself at the Holladay House Bed and Breakfast in Orange, VA where the landscape was stunning, the activities were authentic, the people were gracious, and the history was so engaging!    Not to mention the homemade cookies and biscuits are worthy of a postcard home!

High Meadows Vineyard Inn
Scottsville, VA
October 12-14th, 2013

As a beautiful country inn just minutes outside of Charlottesville, Virginia, the High Meadows Vineyard Inn stands as a designated Virginia Landmark. Red claims all travelers must spend some time here, whether it be in the gardens, the historic inn or admiring the vinifera grapes!  Circa 1832 and 1882, High Meadows Vineyard Inn is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, yet the inside is modernized with all the luxuries of today.

Arcady Vineyard Bed and Breakfast & Wine Tours
Charlottesville, VA
October 5-7th, 2013

The Red Chair arrived at the Arcady Vineyard B&B on a busy October weekend.  When Red arrived the innkeepers were quite busy picking their grapes, so of course the Red Chair jumped right in to help!  It is the only place in town that is a B&B and working vineyard all in one!  It was a great hands-on introduction to a country vineyard vacation.

Stonewall Jackson Inn
Harrisonberg, VA
October 2-4th, 2013

A beautifully restored mansion, circa 1885, the Stonewall Jackson Inn sits among the Shenandoah Valley.  The Red Chair has found this inn to be quite unlike any other when it comes to feel and style.  Although it provides the feel of a Civil War era home, when it was being restored the architects brought in specific materials to give it an old summer coastal home feel.  It brought the Red Chair right back home!
