After my
sister and I left the superb elegance of Monticello, Virginia we drove almost
another two hours to a charming bed-and-breakfast called Magnolia Manor in
Williamsburg, Virginia. With the Garmin as our navigator, we had no difficulty
finding our bed-and-breakfast at the corner of Richmond Road and Dillard. We
had driven all day, so both of us were weary and eager to relax in the comfort
of our room.
We entered
through the back door and we were immediately impressed by the charming décor.
A fireplace rested to our right and an elongated table stretched out before us.
A doorway opened to our left, which led into a public living room. There was
another fireplace and cozy couches and refreshments of coffee, cookies, and
water available to those visiting. Also, books lounged in bookcases for those
thirsty of mind. We then followed the steps to our room, which was called the
Gardenia Suite.
As we pushed open the door and could
not have been more pleased!
I just experienced a victory sweet reader! Yes, I figured out how to get a photo from my email to the photo file, so that I could apply it to this blog post! If you knew me, you would realize what a grand victory that is indeed! Originally, I had planned to point you to the WEB page where you could see the fireplace photo displayed. Magnolia Manor's
webpage. http://www.magnoliamanorwmbg.com/
The bed was huge and enviable since it was the type you hope to find at the end of a weary journey. We've never experienced a more comfortable mattress on a vacation. There was an actual stepstool which could be used to climb onto that tall mattress and when we spied it we laughed out loud! Truth be told we both agreed that if we had only stayed in these rooms for the duration it would have been a very pleasant visit indeed!
Our host prepared wonderful breakfasts and all the visitors sat together at the long table in the dinning area. Each morning we met and conversed with new visitors. People from California, New York, West Virginia, Virginia and maybe a couple of other locations also seemed quite happy with their rooms and care.
If I were asked if I would ever revisit the Magnolia Manor Bed and Breakfast Inn in Williamsburg, VA I would heartily agree!
