Ridge View
Bed & Breakfast
Rochelle, Virginia

Ridge View Bed and Breakfast sits on one of America's most picturesque scenic byways -- Virginia's Byway Route 231 in Madison County and is close to historical sites, Universities and wineries on the Virginia Civil War Trail of Rochelle.

Guests stay in a beautifully restored farmhouse located on 17 rolling acres and enjoy fantastic views of the incomparable Blue Ridge while relaxing in the sunlit "Great Room" or on Ridge View's old-fashioned porch.

Each of Ridge View's three guest rooms is air-conditioned and has a queen-sized bed, private bath, and ceiling fan. La Cameretta features a Victorian decor with writing desk and reading chair. La Bella Vista, as its name suggests, boasts a beautiful view and is furnished with a reading chair, day bed, and a wicker bed. The bright and cheerful Vista del Giardino overlooks the formal garden and garden fountain. Its 1920's vintage furniture and whirlpool tub are a match for the romantic at heart.

Coffee and juice are served bright and early followed by an elegant and hearty Ridge View breakfast served in the dining room or on one of the patios.

After satisfying your palate, you can feast your eyes on the inn's surrounding Blue Ridge beauty. The nearby Skyline Drive will wind you through the Blue Ridge Mountains, and there are some 20 wineries within 30 minutes of the inn. Shoppers will enjoy the area's myriad antique venues, and the University of Virginia and James Madison University offer everything from great libraries and exhibits to dramatic theater and action-packed sporting events.

History is well represented in the area as the The Virginia Civil War Trail runs by Ridge View. Rochelle is also where the battle of Jack's Shop (modern Rochelle) took place in September 22, 1863, and the Exchange Hotel, a Civil War museum, is in nearby Gordonsville. Other historical attractions include Montpelier, Monticello, and Historic Mitchie Tavern.

Yes, there's certainly plenty to see and do in this neck of the woods, but don't underestimate the joy of doing nothing at all. If you choose to stay put, you can always mix into your time of leisure a little croquet, horseshoes, or boccie. You'll also be welcome to pick fruit, herbs, and vegetables in season from the Ridge View gardens or one of the local farms.
