“How can a business get away with this?”

Reviewed 29 April 2013

I purchased a livingsocial deal for $260!!! Called and emailed numerous times as soon as I mentioned my coupon I received no help. I did get a little further when I didn't mention the coupon at all, but when I started talking about what dates I again received the cold shoulder. There is no "charm" or "character" in doing this...

“Nothing "Fair" about this view. They don't honor their "deals".”

Reviewed 19 February 2013

My wife and I received a WEEKEND getaway at the Fairview for Christmas in 2011 and still have been unable to use it. Every time we contact them we are offered tuesday-thursday dates. Seriously, who other that retirees can go to a B&B in the middle of the week. Complete rip-off!

We were warmly greeted by the owner/innkeeper,Jennifer, as if she had known us for years and quickly offered up a sampling of wines. Jennifer takes great pride in Fairview, and with good reason.

“DREADFUL EXPERIENCE”

1. We also purchased a voucher from Travel Zoo in September of 2012 and were extremely excited about our weekend in Amherst. Our voucher has yet to be honored on January 31, 2013. We have requested a full refund from Travel Zoo. 2. Numerous attempts at leaving voicemails for Jennifer Kilgore were to no avail, as the voice mailbox was... More

Our stay at Fairview Bed and Breakfast was very pleasant and relaxing. Jennifer and her staff were very welcoming and accommodating. We arrived late due to the winter weather and since we had missed dinner, the staff made us a nice picnic basket for our adventures on Saturday. We met wonderful people and had a great time exploring the area... More

“Beautiful Property Fantastic Hospitality”

She made us feel welcome and was very eager to see that we enjoyed our stay. We stayed in the green room which was tastefully furnished and comfortable – especially the linens. The views from our bedroom... More

Jennifer and her staff were welcoming and very nice! Our room was THE BEST! We stayed in the newly finished 3rd Floor! Our fellow guests were jealous of our room when they saw it! Although I enjoyed seeing all of the rooms which were beautifully decorated!!! We arrived early due to the impending inclement weather and were graciously received!!! Peacocks... More

“Southern Hospitality with Sophistication”

Reviewed 23 January 2013

Our trip to Fairview Bed & Breakfast was amazing. The house is beautiful and our room was decorated with simple elegance. Fairview offered complete privacy, and if you wanted to meet and socialize with the other guests, a warm and inviting sitting room with a fireplace was the perfect place. Each morning Jennifer made a delicious breakfast with the most... More

“Hidden Gem”

Reviewed 16 January 2013

Tucked away in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Fairview is a fantastic getaway. Fairview is perfectly situated as an escape from the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day, lying amidst rolling farmland and beautiful forest, while still extremely convenient to local orchards, vineyards, and parks. The estate itself is gorgeous and the inside is just as lovely as the outside. The... More
