1804 Inn at Barboursville Vineyards

Barboursville, Virginia
Nestled amid the grapevines in Barboursville Vineyards, the 1804 Inn is part of the historic estate of Gov. James Barbour, former governor of Virginia. Period bone china, antique silver, and priceless artwork ensure the inn's genteel history is felt in each room.

Book this Room: It's impossible not to fall in love with the ruby-colored, toile-covered Octagon Room. Named after the vineyard's most prestigious vintage, the room features a balcony overlooking a lake, and a claw-foot tub in a room that used to be a library.

Don't Miss this Meal: To complement Barboursville's acclaimed Italian reds, the Inn's Palladio restaurant serves Italian specialties. Start with Roasted Butternut Squash-filled Ravioli with Sage Butter and Toasted Pumpkin Seeds.
