Washington DC residents know they have plenty of places surrounding where they can escape when life in the city gets to be too much. But with so many amazing weekend getaways to choose from, how do you know which is the best? We found the ultimate quiet and stress free location that is only an hour outside of Washington DC! Goodstone Inn near Washington DC is the perfect getaway.
The Goodstone Inn is nestled into 265 acres of countryside in Middleburg. Virginia’s Horse & Wine country is the perfect place to escape the tension of the city without having to travel very far.
The Goodstone’s story began in 1768 when Jamie Leith developed a plantation on the 640 acres of land near Middleburg. The land and the buildings were sold throughout the years and in 1934, Frederick Warburg built the Manor House, which still stands to this day. The current owner purchased the property in 1996 and turned into a gorgeous country inn.
You will enjoy world class dining at the Restaurant at Goodstone. The chef draws on the inspiration from the surrounding farm land and provides guests with fresh, local ingredients and seasonal farm-to-table meals.
Since the Goodstone is located in the heart of Virginia wine country, the excellent sommelier will be able to find the perfect wine pairing for your meal or your specific palate from their stocked wine cellar.
No matter what time of year, you visit the Goodstone, you’ll be able to find something to do and see there. In warmer weather, you can hike one of the local trails or stroll around the farm. You might even spot Greyson, the Goodstone’s llama!
With its countryside charm, Southern hospitality, incredible scenery and amazing attention to details, the Goodstone Inn is the ultimate quiet getaway for those living in Washington DC!
