    Awesome stay with great vibes!

    We had such a chill time here! Chris and Jayne were super friendly, making us instantly feel at home. The beds were sooo comfy, and we enjoyed breakfast on the porch. One thing tho, the WiFi was a bit spotty at times. Overall, totally worth it!

    outstanding breakfast
    cheerful hosts

    It was just a well-suited match for a brief stop-in in Roanoke with great value for the money. The breakfasts were absolutely outstanding, leaving me feeling satiated and ready to explore. Driveway can be tricky to find on the first try, so keep an eye out.

    cozy decor
    tricky driveway

    We had a wonderful stay! The breakfasts were exceptional, especially the pancakes with local maple syrup and the fresh fruit. Our room was cozy and beautifully decorated—just as we hoped! If I had to nitpick, finding the driveway was a little tricky at first, but it didn't overshadow the great experience. I would absolutely choose this place again!

    This charming B&B in Roanoke offers warm hospitality and beautifully decorated rooms, making it a cozy retreat. However, dining options downtown require a bit of a walk or drive. The breakfast was delicious, showcasing the owners' culinary skills, which was a lovely highlight.

    tricky driveway
    minor inconvenience

    The breakfast by Jayne was divine—think locally sourced goodness, prepared with love! The hosts, Jayne and Chris, exuded warmth, ensuring every need was met while spilling the deets on the local dining scene. The hospitality truly made it feel like home!

    If I had to nitpick, the driveway's a tad tricky to navigate, but Jayne and Chris set us straight! No biggie, the whole stay still sparkled.

    Outstanding breakfast with homemade goodies. The driveway's a bit tricky to navigate. Rental bikes nearby made exploring easy.

    cozy ambiance
    incredible breakfast
    lovely garden
    finding the place

    We had a fabulous overnight stay, enjoying the cozy ambiance of our Deluxe King Room and the incredible breakfast prepared by Jayne just for us. The lovely garden was perfect for unwinding, and the upstairs deck was a great spot to sip wine. The only minor hiccup was finding the place at first, but once we did, it was smooth sailing from there! 🍷

    cozy rooms
    guest kitchen
    outdoor seating
    tricky access

    The rooms are nice and decorated with care, offering a cozy, homey feel that's perfect for relaxation after a long day. A guest kitchen with tea, coffee, and snacks makes it easy to unwind, and the outdoor seating areas provide lovely spots to enjoy a glass of wine while soaking in the scenery.

    Finding the driveway can feel like navigating an asteroid field—it's easy to miss the sign, especially when you’re focused on getting to your destination. There are quite a few stairs leading to the rooms, which can be a hassle if you’re hauling luggage or have mobility issues. Additionally, being close to a busy road means you might hear some traffic noise, but I suppose that’s just part of being in the city.
