History and lodging go hand in hand in Virginia. Nearly all of Virginia’s historic inns and accommodations are riddled with a past both haunting and fascinating. And it seems that some buildings haven’t completely moved on. One prime example is the Black Horse Inn, a breathtaking accommodation in Warrenton, Virginia. The inn’s former identity as a Civil War Hospital lends a haunted yet completely intriguing element to your stay. It’s no surprise that this building is allegedly haunted with not one, but four ghosts! Here’s more on the Black Horse Inn, a remarkable place to stay in Virginia’s hunt country.

The Black Horse Inn is a stately bed & breakfast located in northern Virginia that offers guests an experience of the past. The original part of the building was constructed in the 1850s, meaning that the property has existed for nearly 170 years.
