Here at the Orchard House, we are always trying to brainstorm new ways to make our guests’ visit more memorable and fun.   In short, we treat our guests the way WE would want to be treated on a treasured getaway!

In the short year that we have lived in Nelson County, we have been introduced to some amazing restaurants, wineries, breweries…downright great local experiences.  So we approached each of “our favorite places” and asked them to partner with us to create an amazing experience for our guests.  We were met with nothing but enthusiasm and resounding “YES” from each of these wonderful venues.  May we present to you:  our own Nelson County VIP card.

At check-in, we review the different venues that participate and help our guests design their ultimate Nelson County experience.  Some guests want to focus on the wineries and/or breweries (DelFosse, Devil’s Backbone, Blue Mountain Barrel House, Lovingston Winery, Democracy Vineyards, Brent Manor, Mountain Cove), others are more excited about the unique food options (Tuck & Ollie’s, Basic Necessities, Vito’s, again Devil’s Backbone, Wood Ridge Brewery).   Several have heard rave reviews about the extremely impressive distillery that is just one mile up the road from us (Virginia Distillery).  And others are excited about the food truck, wandering peacocks, and atmosphere that our newest local brewery offers (Wood Ridge Farm Brewery).

The “specials” vary, but each of these preferred partners offers our guests something different.  VIP tastings, percentages off your tab, $1 off pints; just something to make our Orchard House guests feel extra special.

We love supporting Nelson County, sharing our new area with our guests, and providing our guests the best experience possible during their getaway here with us.  We would love to share our VIP card with you, too….come experience some of the best that Nelson County offers, including your stay at the Orchard House Bed & Breakfast!
