This is a nice B&B with a lot of character, the owners are very nice, the surrounding area is beautiful and it is a short drive from the Metro DC area. It is not so much like staying in a full service hotel, as staying with a pleasantly eccentric Aunt and Uncle. The breakfasts were fantastic, and Frank sings while... More

My husband and I wanted to get away for a night. We didn't want to travel far from home, and when we looked for B&Bs in our area, we found several on-line. Did we want to be in a posh environment or have a need for individual service? No. Did we need a myriad of activities at our fingertips? No.... More

I planned a trip to Virginia for a friend's wedding in what I know is the 'high season' for the area (Fall). It was really difficult to find a place near the wedding that was nice and affordable. Practically impossible, actually. I finally found the Inn on Thistle Hill and was enchanted by pictures and reviews, a lovely & unique... More

Stayed for our honeymoon and couldn't have been more pleased with the Inn On Thistle Hill. Frank and Seane were warm, friendly, and accommodating from our very first email asking for a late check in and special diet requests. We were assured that wasn't a problem and we booked the Gold Room. The room was beautiful and as pictured on... More

I really really wish we had had a better experience, especially for what we paid! The whole experience was, quite frankly, akward. First, let me say that the owners are very nice, friendly, and outgoing. However, when we were first shown around, all of the projects needing attention around the property (such as the pile of rusty objects to the... More

We stayed for a couples get away weekend and were satisfied with our stay. Our goals were to go hiking, sleep like logs, and eat well. All of this was accomplished. The location is ideal for hiking Old Rag, we slept really well, and the breakfasts were filling and tasty. However, this is not the place to go for luxury.... More

My wife needed a "mom's weekend away" after long periods of time with a husband traveling constantly, three kids needing constant attention and a house that never seemed to stay clean. I researched local bed and breakfast spots and came across The Inn at Thistle Hill. The geographic placement of the Inn and its photos clearly leaned toward it being... More

I booked a room at the Inn before I read to Trip Advisor review, so you can imagine my fear that I made a huge mistake. All I can say is that I went there thinking I will have a dreadful experience, and when I got there I discovered something entirely different. Frank and Seane (who run the place) are... More

I visited Thistle Hill with my sig other and two other couples. We were all, on the whole, quite disappointed. We felt so ripped off-- their rooms should be half the price she charges. This B&B is... idiosyncratic and not a fraction as classy as it appears to be on the website. I have to say in the inn's defense,... More
