Red Hill Bed and Breakfast | Bed & Breakfast in Nelson, Virginia

“This plaice was once a beautiful structure and grounds, but now shows serious signs of neglect both inside and out. Nothing like the photos. Chef was kind and tried to help us feel comfortable, My friend and I, two women, in our late 70’s traveling alone, were very uncomfortable having this big old creepy house way back in the mountains, surrounded by brush and trees, all to ourselves. We ask about a restaurant and was told the nearest was about 30 minutes away. We had traveled 6 hours so Chef made us a snack of dry meat and bread. There was no water to make coffee, So I brought water from the car and the coffee tasted “bad” and no creamer. There was plenty of alcohol to make drinks on the open bar, but neither of us drink. So we were going to watch a movie and make the best of it. NO TV! We decided o take a drive to find food and, once away, we admitted to each other we afraid to go back after dark. Seriously frightened, we decided we could not possible sleep in that big ancient house alone, so we went back, packed up our stuff and found another place to spend the night. Nothing against Chef, but the mouse traps under the bed was the last straw. ”

“Wonderful stay! ”

“The host, Chef Herbert Kerschbaumer, was very gracious and accommodating. The food was exceptional and we can’t wait to get back and sample more. My chef husband was in seventh heaven. The B&B is right next door to the Lovingston Winery and couldn’t be more convenient. Grounds are picturesque. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. ”

“Beautiful b&b, delicious breakfast w/a friendly chef and team! Wonderful service. Lovely walking trail around the property.”

“Red Hill has a cool history, great host and you'll be hard pressed to find a better breakfast. ”

“Our favorite place ever, anywhere! Excellent food, lots of Art & a winery next door- what more could you ask for? Wonderful, worldly host! ”

“This is an older house, so charm abounds. There is some specific art work that may not be everyone's taste and a small fruit fly problem with/near the bar but the breakfast was phenomenal! The host is super friendly. Overall - recommend!!”

“Definitely a great place to stay especially if you’re visiting wineries in the area. The owner is wonderful and the place is beautiful. ”

“The property was great. There were plenty of areas to relax, indoors and outside, and a nice trail to walk around the property. And the dogs were always ready for a ball toss (Jack, the Belgian Malinois) or a snuggle (Olive, the pit bull rescue). The breakfast was delicious”

“Herbert was an excellent host! We loved hearing about the history and what went into updating the home as a Bed and Breakfast! Breakfast was delicious! The setting was beautiful! Olive and Jack were an extra bonus in making us feel at home.”
