Was almost impossible to reach by phone to make a reservation (that should have been my warning).

First the good: Breakfast was great.
One of our couples stayed in the main house and said the bed in room 1 was really, really good. The view from the deck was great.
Woodburning fireplace in cottage.

Now the bad:
Dogs and cats (allergy sufferers beware!)
People hair and leftover soap in bathtubs.
No kleenex, toiletries, little touches in either location. No TV listing guide.
Promised appetizers never showed.
Contacted innkeeper .... took 3 hours to get a reply (see problem above with making reservation)

We stayed in...hahah...the River View Cottage. Now, one would assume this would have a "view" right? WRONG!

Not to mention you either have to drive back to the house...OR...climb a very steep hill that would be impassable in any condition other than very dry.

Overpriced for underservice.

I've stayed in far better B&B's....and won't be staying in this one again.

My wife and I used to have a B&B, but this was my first time as a guest. I like my privacy. I walked through the front entrance of the Ledge House B&B and my heart stopped. The view was truly unbelievable. The photos on their web site don't do them justice. Warm and genuine innkeepers. Wine and some great snacks were ready on our arrival and the full breakfast of juice, sausage, eggs and peach & blueberry crepes with freshly ground coffee taken on the deck overlooking the Shenandoah and Potocmac Rivers...Awesome. The spacious rooms with king beds and private balcony were welcoming. You WILL hear the blow of the train horns during the night, but it didn't subtract from our stay.

We will go back, again and again!

    • Disliked — The noise from the trains but it wasn't enough to detract from our stay.....just a honest notice to travelers.

“Awesome”

We stayed here, the 1st week of February. Wonderfully cold outside. Cozy warm fire place, and wine, inside. Beautiful scenary right from the dining room/ living room. Excellent hosts. They do think of everything. Right down to the ornate ice bucket, and Champagne Flutes. A culinary guru for the breakfast chef.

My parents and I stayed at the Ledge House in November. It is run by a young couple. They were wonderful hosts and made us feel welcome and comfortable in their beautiful house. The rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The views are fantastic! The kitchen was well stocked with food, wine, and coffee/tea and we were served a delicious breakfast. I would absolutely stay here again! We briefly checked out the Hilltop House on our way out and felt we had made definitely made the better choice.
