Bed and Breakfast Inn, Charlottesville, Virginia, The Foxfield Inn, Guest Comments

If you are considering a trip to Charlottesville, you have to stay at The Foxfield Inn! Mary Pat and John are two of the nicest individuals you will ever meet. You will enjoy their gracious hospitality and you can rest assured they will go out of their way to make sure your every need (and desire ) is met. Their immaculate Inn is truly a home away from home! The rooms beautifully decorated and are so welcoming, right down to the fresh flowers. Mary Pat is a fabulous cook and she'll even share her recipes (love the Strawberry Bread!). We are already looking forward to our next stay at the Foxfield Inn! Kristin and Peter Gerlach, Chesapeake, VA

"Fantastic Foxfield Inn Stay" We came to the Inn through our son's recommendation after his stay several years ago upon his move to Virginia. Thinking that we would enjoy the change of pace from the bustle in California, he recommended the Foxfield Inn. What a treasure to find in the midst of nature's beauty. Kinder hosts you could not find than Mary Pat and John. We didn't want to leave. We were welcomed and treated like family, and fed like royalty. The atmosphere is filled with peace and spirituality.....we look forward to coming back......Thank you for being there for us. Doug, Penny, and Jeff Hansen, Valencia California

"Probably the ultimate in American Inn's" We have just completed a three week tour of Virginia and the Carolinas and I have to say one of the highlights of our trip was our stay at the Foxfield Inn, Charlottesville [more on TripAdvisor}. TripAdvisor member from Barnsley, UK

"Great Place!" This place definitely lived up to the pictures! It is absolutely beautiful and every little detail was well thought out. Loved the bathrooms - very spacious. I loved having the two-person Jacuzzi tub, too. The food was great and so was the hospitality. Couldn't pick a better place. As a matter of fact, my husband and I rank this one as the best bed and breakfast we have stayed in - and we visit them each year. Thanks Mary Pat and John! A TripAdvisor Member, Roanoke, VA,

"We would just like to say how much we both enjoyed staying at the Foxfield Inn recently. We loved your beautiful home and enjoyed your hospitality. We only wish we could have stayed longer! It certainly is no comparison with B&B in the UK!! Many thanks once again." Email from Carol & Steve Bradford, East Grinstead, Sussex, UK,

"Wow! This is the place!" -- After two nights at this incredible inn, we could only say "WOW" Mary Pat and John run a first class establishment, where every need is met, and everything is kept in perfect order and in spotless condition. The grounds are beautiful, the location is convenient, breakfast is sumptuous, and if you have any special request, Mary Pat and John will see to your need. The harshest critic would not be able to find fault. We would and will gladly return and highly recommend this inn to everyone. A TripAdvisor Member, North Potomac, MD

"Loved it the second time around" -- We enjoyed our stay so much in 2004 that we just had to go back. Mary Pat is a wonderful cook who doesn't mind sharing her secrets! John was so helpful in directing us to places to visit. Foxfield was as comfortable as home, but with no chores!! The other guests were delightful also - guess they know quality too! We were as well taken care of this time as we were our first trip, and were received as old friends. This won't be our last visit!! -- A TripAdvisor Member, Alexandria, Virginia

Pastoral Pampering with a Plus ++++ The Foxfield Inn is definitely a 'destination' for any traveler to the Charlottesville area. The operative word here is 'Gracious'. The inn is set on a hill in the middle of horse country, yet minutes from Rte 29 and downtown Charlottesville. It's only a few minutes to Monticello and the other historic homes.
The public rooms are as inviting as the guestrooms, with piano, fireplace, etc. The feeling of peace and welcome is cultivated by Mary Pat and John, who seem to have anticipated every need of a vacationer. Most importantly, they are hosts who go out of their way to give each guest or couple a little extra pampering, while allowing them their privacy. -- A TripAdvisor Member, New York, NY

"The Best of the Best!" There is just one word to describe this B&B: Excellent! We stayed in the large, bright, immaculately clean Audubon Room. The birdfeeder outside our bow window was constantly aflutter with goldfinches. The bathroom was enormous, with a double jacuzzi and, like our room, impeccably clean. The rest of the inn was very welcoming and spacious, and included a butler's pantry, which was always stocked with homemade cookies, hot drinks, bottled water and popcorn. We enjoyed relaxing in the screened tea house in the garden, after a full day of sightseeing. Foxfield Inn is very conveniently located near shopping districts, restaurants, historic sites and the U of VA. We were treated to wonderful, diverse breakfasts each day with special attention paid to our dietary restrictions. But it is the innkeepers, John and Mary Pat, who truly make the Foxfield Inn the Best of the Best! They made us feel so welcome. We felt so comfortable returning to the inn each night and it was obvious, by all the extras, that they enjoy being innkeepers. The Foxfield Inn is perfect...in every way. -- A TripAdvisor User, Oradell, NJ

"Our visit to the Foxfield Inn was outstanding" My husband and I spent two wonderful nights at the Foxfield Inn and loved it! We stayed in the Audubon room and it was very luxurious, spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. Every attention had been given to decorating the Inn tastefully with an eye for the comfort of the guests. Our bathroom had plenty of light and counterspace, plus a large jacuzzi and separate shower. It was very quiet and we were never bothered by noise from outside our room. The snack area in the hall was also nice and we enjoyed the early morning availability of coffee. The food was wonderful as well. Thank you, John and Mary Pat! -- A TripAdvisor User, Glendale, AZ
