Summary:

Mayhurst Inn is a luxurious Central Virginia Bed and Breakfast located in Orange, VA and near Charlottesville, VA. Situated on 37 acres of the rolling Virginia Piedmont, surrounded by manicured lawns, multiple gardens, old growth trees and fields, you are transported away from today's day-to-day stress to a time and place where relaxation was a way of life and where your hosts pamper you with Southern Hospitality. 2009 is the 150th Anniversary of Mayhurst. Come enjoy the "Plantation Experience" with us.

Located near 3 Presidential Mansions, 6 Civil War Battlefields, 10 of Virginia's finest Wineries and surrounded by excellent restaurants, Mayhurst is also the perfect place for your vacation or getaway.

Mayhurst is only 90 minutes from Northern Virginia, 60 minutes from Richmond and 2.5 hours from Norfolk and the Tidewater area, its beauty, scenic vistas, quiet, romance and history make your Mayhurst experience truly unique.

Mayhurst is a magnificent and rare 9200 Sq. Ft. Italianate Victorian gem built in 1859 and is remarkable for its fanciful exuberant architecture. Mayhurst is filled with history and romance. When you stay at Mayhurst and tour the grounds you will be following in the footsteps of Generals Robert E. Lee, A. P. Hill and "Stonewall" Jackson who visited and enjoyed the beauty of Mayhurst. Your can walk (and explore) where 18,000 Confederate troops pitched their tents during the winter of 1863-64. Mayhurst is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places and is a Virginia Historic Landmark noted for its historic as well as architectural merit. Mayhurst is also one of the historic properties on the "Journey Through Hallowed Ground" - the Historical Route 15 and Route 20 corridor of that runs from Gettysburg to Monticello. You may wish to tour all four floors of the mansion complete with a climb to the rooftop cupola where General "Stonewall" Jackson observed his troops and where Civil War Graffiti is scratched into the 150 year old glass.
