We had a wonderful anniversary weekend. Great meal, excellent service and wonderful, private room with everything we needed.

The staff was very nice and responsive. One of the aspects of the Inn that is somewhat underrated is the sheer size of the grounds available to visitors. If you enjoy being outside in a tranquil setting (taking walks or resting), Hillbrook Inn is for you. Dining: We booked the 5-course dinner at Redbook restuarant, which is located inside the Inn's main building. Chef Justin's creations were imaginative and very well-executed. Perhaps the highlight of the meal was the Coulotte steak--tender and cooked to perfection. The servers, Bobbi and Becky, were stellar as well.

This is our third stay at Hillbrook it never disappoints. We always choose the Hawthorne estate suites which sits on an apple orchard. Across the board outstanding!

I have now stayed at the Hillbrook Inn & Spa and have enjoyed it both times. Stayed both times in The Point and the room was perfect. Bed is very comfortable. Breakfast is a nice treat and the staff at the Spa knows how to give a great massage. All in all, a great, relaxing getaway.

We stayed one night in one of the suites, it was a great room, even though it was about 2 miles from the property, I think it was worth it, especially when the weather is nicer, and you could sit outside and enjoy the quiet country view! We did not eat dinner there, but breakfast was good (I would just like to see some choices or at least know what ahead of time what the meal is going to be the next day). I also think they could offer more to eat at breakfast, the food was good, but we were still hungry when we left, so extra pastries or cut fruit of something else to supplement the small portion would be nice. I had a massage at the spa, although I thought the services were extremely pricey ($131 for an hour massage), the package I purchased included a $50 voucher for the spa, so I applied that to my massage, making it about 80$ for the one hour. My therapist was absolutely wonderful, and it was probably one of the best massages I have had! If you go ask for Rebecca, she is very knowledgeable! The other thing that I wasn't crazy about was the fact that they automatically included 20% gratitude to my bill, and although there was a statement saying that if anything was not to my liking they would adjust the bill, but they give this to you as soon as we checked in, so I had no idea if I would be satisfied with everything, I would prefer to tip the way I want see fit, not feel like I'm being charged up front and then I can go back and dispute things if I am not satisfied, but that seems like a big hassle in the end, to have to go back and make adjustments. The casino is also fairly close, so we were able to go there and find other places to eat for dinner, so that was convenient.

Hillbrook is a scenic, historic property with all the charm of a manor and all the modern conveniences you usually can only have at home. I stayed in the Snuggery, a private, "snug" space that was well-appointed and surprisingly luxurious. Large two-person shower, private entrance overlooking the back lawn, in room tablet and flat screen TV... from check in to breakfast and everything in between, this place was amazing. I also took the opportunity to get a facial at the spa up the road, and it too was relaxing and high-quality. The facility itself was beautiful and modern, yet historic and charming all at once. Highly recommend Hillbrook. Will be returning.

Everyone made us feel welcome and always had a comfort as a top priority. Must try the tree swing for a little fun which brought back some childhood memories. The inn is cozy and well managed. Looking forward to returning in the early fall.

We so enjoyed our overnight stay at the Hillbrook Inn & Spa. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The Summer Cottage was beautifully maintained, clean and extremely comfortable. We enjoyed walking the grounds and photographing wild life. The Spa services were also outstanding. Very relaxing get away! We would highly recommend and hope to return in the near future!

I was able to book a stay at the EASt Suite at the Hawthorne Site. The lodging experience was amazing. The room size was surprisely spacious and clean. The deco was set to provide a warm, relaxing and comfortable stay . We received outstanding service from everyone we meet from checking in, taking a cooking class, dining at the restaurant, receiving Spa treatment and just enjoying the property surroundings. Wished I had book more than one night.....Next TIme I will.

This Inn exceeded my expectations. Everything was very professional and organized. We stayed at The Farmhouse away from the main lodge and it was beautifully decorated, the room was larger than I expected and the rest of the home was lovely. The tv was playing music when we arrived and they had cookies and coffee/tea available in the kitchen, as well as water. The main Inn included a short historical tour and the staff was very friendly and courteous. Dinner was exceptional. 5 course dinner in the Main Inn. Same with breakfast in the morning in the sunroom. Very nice, quiet romantic getaway. Spa was lovely as well. The cheese tray add-on was disappointing and a bit over priced for what we received. I don't like the fact that the gratuity for dinner, breakfast and spa service is automatically added to the bill. Although, I would have given 20 percent for the service so it wasn't a huge deal. I could hear the people walking around in the room above me (we stayed in South room) which kept me up later than I wanted, but it's an old home not a hotel so, somewhat expected to hear creaking...Other than that, everything was perfect.

The HILLBROOK is always a pleasant soujourn. The properties are all lovely and its is the perfect distance from the big city. Since the rebranding of the restaurant, I find the price of the 4 course meal to be a bit on the high side at $70 per person, especially with no menu choice.That being said the I ingredients are always fresh and the chef does a lovely job.

My husband and I needed some "just us" time. We booked the Serenity Suite. We did a lot of research and we were not disappointed. The room was beautiful. So clean! We checked in and were met by Ricardo. We were given a welcome drink and a tour of the house. He told us a bit of history about the property and Charlestown. I had a manicure and a facial at the wonderful spa. Suzanne was amazing. I had never had a facial and she went through slowly and explained everything to me. So sweet! I just couldn't get over the beauty of the room. Just so cute. The bed was comfortable. We slept well. I love the fireplace in the wall. It was chilly, so it came in very handy. Plus it was pretty to look at. We were surprised and pleased to find that the room had a ceiling fan. There was not much drawer space. Only 2 drawers and 2 night stand drawers, but that was plenty for us only being there two nights. There was a good size closet. There was a flat screen with cable. A mini fridge and microwave. Always a plus. The bathroom was my favorite part of the whole experience. The tub was very large. Perfect for relaxing and reading. The sauna was a fun experience also. We had breakfast in the sunroom. It was ok. It was not all that impressive. An egg and piece of English muffin. Then a piece of French toast casserole with berries and orange syrup. The French toast was the best part. We had a little snag with the continental breakfast. It was supposed to be put in our fridge the day before and was not. But we called and they were very prompt about bringing it. It was not that good. Greek yogurt, orange juice, some kind of baked pineapple with cream and toasted almonds. The best part was the bread they sent. It was warm and delicious. Spices and nuts. We did not have dinner either nights. It was way too expensive. All and all. It was a dream. Best two nights we have had in a while. We will defiantly be back! We can't wait.

Our stay at Hillbrook Inn was nice, the room accommodations were nice, clean, and private! The 5 course dinner was good, however, nothing really to gush over. In addition, when we received our online bill it was disappointing and upsetting to realize we had been charged a gratuity for everything that we did on site. We were told at check in that there would be an automatic gratuity for the dinner, however, when we received our bill we were charged a gratuity for them to open a bottle of wine that we consumed at the already paid for dinner (with no indication this was going to happen), and then again for the "free" breakfast there was an additional gratuity charge as well. Breakfast was essentially a quick "reheated" meal from the day before with a small quiche, some reheated potatoes and fresh fruit, nothing to really speak of that was "excellent" about the meal, so to be charged an additional gratuity was a bit outlandish as well. This is too bad, considering we loved our room, and the surrounding area, but will think twice about recommending and returning. I wish we just would have been told of all these "extra" fees. After we left we also decided we were so very happy that we didn't have the "inn keeper" open a bottle of wine for us in our suite, can only imagine what the fee would have been for that.

My boyfriend and I visited The Hillbrook Inn for a one night Anniversay celebration. Immediately we were taken with how beautiful the property and the main house were. We loved the personal tour and history about the house and absolutely adored our suite. The only downside for us was the lack of follow through relating to our guest preferences, particularly with breakfast. I had filled out a pre-arrival survey that requested dietary restrictions and allergy information, which was confirmed upon check in, however not acknowledged at all during breakfast. Subsequently, I was served items I could not eat.

We stayed at the Hillbrook inn for a date night in March 2015. We booked a deal off of Living Social and stayed in the room "Lookout". Once we booked our say we received a phone call from the inn letting us know that they do not serve dinner on Mondays and gave us a couple options to choose from. Our Living Social deal included $25 towards dinner, so instead we opted for the Champagne Package. A couple days prior to our stay, I booked a signature Hillbrook massage at the spa. Upon arrival, we were given our key and a run through of events from a very friendly staff member. He showed us around, gave us welcome drinks, talked about the history of the inn, set us up with a time for the champagne package, set up a private fire for us on the property, and gave us directions to where we were having dinner. The signature massage was outstanding. The atmosphere of the spa was relaxing and cozy. We did not realize the spa was in a different building, but the location was not a far walk from the main building. The property is beautiful. We weren't able to fully experience everything because of snow, but we were impressed with the parts we were able to see. The best part had to be the romantic fire that was set up for us when we returned from dinner. There was fire wood, kindling, and a lighter all ready to go for us. Our room "Lookout" was cozy and just as we expected. A very comfortable bed, private bath, and an iPad was there for our convenience. Water and coffee were in the room as well. The feel of the claw foot tub took us back to the history of the house and was such a nice touch. We couldn't really rate the onsite dining because we booked for a Monday night and there was no dinner offered on Mondays. The two course breakfast was delicious and unique. Our stay was outstanding and we have already booked our return date.

This was a gift from a friend, My spouse and I stayed at the farmhouse. It was so beautiful. The dinner was "Amazing". I am still thinking about that steak, and COFFEE! The drinks were very good, and the breakfast was good as well. The only thing I would recommend is that the food come out sooner during the sitting and that the portions are bigger. But, overall we will be back, it is so relaxing. The room was so nice, and CLEAN. We are germ phobics, but we didn't clean anything, but the remote. Next time we will be staying longer.

I purchased a living social deal for a room in the Hawthorn House. The house was amazing. There was a game room downstairs which included a pool table and dart board. The room was very spacious.

Definitely will be coming back.

This is a beautiful escape from reality. We stayed in the Point room which was nice but above the kitchen, which made for some late night noise when we were trying to sleep. The meals were good but overpriced. Service was outstanding and the spa was wonderful.

The atmosphere never fails to amaze at Hillbrook. This was our second visit, and both rooms have been lovely. The staff is pleasant, the spa services relaxing, and the food tasty. My main complaint is that the dietary restrictions, although discussed, were not followed either visit. Just be aware. Otherwise, enjoy a great escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life!

Each year, my husband and I return to Hillbrook where our wedding reception was held eight years ago to celebrate our anniversary or my birthday which are days apart. I LOVE Hillbrook Inn. It is endlessly charming, well-appointed and is very much like staying at a European B&B. Dinner is always excellent as is breakfast. I highly recommend Hillbrook for a romantic getaway!

We had a wonderful overnight at HillBrook. The only issue we experienced (in the farmhouse) was the rude guests on the first floor who decided to hang-out in the common area/kitchen, and talk and argue very loudly until 11:45 pm. Most people with any modicum of class realize it's a bed & breakfast set up with other people living in the home, and would have some respect for the other guests above them...not this couple! Other then that, it was a very nice stay. The room was beautiful with a nice view. The dinner was delicious and the spa was great too!

The dinner was average - butternut squash soup that everybody serves, steak on top of a film of mashed potatoes, two halves of a baby carrot and maybe a tablespoon of salty kale. The dessert had been sitting for awhile before it was served - the whipped 'cream' had melted all over what ever that apple thing was that we were served. The breakfast was sooooo bland - I had never heard of a steamed egg before and don't care to meet one again. I have to say that we have never left a breakfast at a B&B hungry before. The innkeepers need to test out the beds occasionally, we felt that our feet were way above our heads. Our room was above the kitchen and the kitchen staff was having a great time way into the night. We were glad that we brought our computer and movies to watch. We've stayed at this B&B before and we were disappointed with this stay.

Thank you Hillbrook Inn for a wonderful weekend!

My husband and I stayed the night here for a belated anniversary getaway. We had a very nice time. The service was great and the staff was very welcoming. We decided not to eat dinner at the Inn, which turned out to be a mistake since almost all of the restaurants in town were closed on a Sunday night. We did have breakfast at the Inn and it was delicious. The I-pad in the room was a nice touch.

Very classy and elegant Inn ! Our suite was very spacious, very nicely appointed and comfortable. We stayed in the Farmhouse, Sunset suite which was very nice especially the French doors off the bedroom which gave us easy access to the back deck. Totally enjoyed the beautiful updated kitchen and lovely dining room. It was a real treat having all the extra space in which to roam. The only recommendation that I would have is to definitely increase the Lightning in the Sunset Suite's living room with the use of a few small table lights and corner lights. This would really create a lot more ambiance and warmth in that room ! Thanks, Ann

My husband and I just took our fifth trip to Hillbrook. The room was lovely, the grounds were lovely, the staff was wonderful, and we had a great time. However, the food (we had two breakfasts and one dinner) was not as good as the other times that we were there. The breakfasts, both of them, lacked any real flavor (one of the starters at breakfast was actually quite gross - fruit with a sort of toothpaste flavored gel on top) and the dinner was okay, but not as good as before. But, everything else was very nice. The room we were in was in very good condition and I am sure we will be back.

My wife and I were just looking for a quiet bed and breakfast for our anniversary weekend, and found a coupon to Hillbrook, which had good reviews. We were not disappointed and had a good time. Perhaps I didn't do enough research, but was a little surprised at the number of options - this clearly appears to be a venue gearing up to be more of a resort than just a bed and breakfast (not a bad thing, obviously). We skipped the five-course dinner, but the breakfast the next morning was very good.

My husband and I visited Hillbrook Inn for a weekend "babymoon" for rest and relaxation. Our stay was wonderful--we stayed in a suite at the Hawthorne and the room was beautiful with a nice sitting area with a fireplace. The grounds at the Hawthorne and the main house were quiet and serene, and great for taking a stroll. We also visited the spa for massages and facials. I had Debbie for a prenatal massage, and she was excellent. Dinner and breakfast were fantastic. We had filet mignon for dinner and one morning there was creme brulee French toast. Overall, our stay was amazing, and we would definitely recommend this Inn. We travel quite a bit and are not "wowed" very easily, and Hillbrook really exceeded our expectations. It's also a bonus that the Inn is only one hour and ten minutes from the DC metro area. We are planning to return!

We stayed in a suite for one night and had the 3-course dinner. I knew that the house was not part of the main house, but did not realize it was off site. Not a big deal, since it was less than 5 minutes away. There's no menu for dinner ahead of time. The room was nice, although I would have expected a tub like that in the bathroom to have jets. A mini fridge would go a long way, too. Dinner was good, but overpriced for what we got. If we had it to do over again, we would have found a restaurant. All in all, we had generally a good time, but we probably wouldn't go back.

My fiance and I enjoyed our weekend getaway here. We were greeted right away and everyone who worked there is very friendly! The property is beautiful, the Inn is cozy, and nature was all around us (we saw so many deer)! The bad part about all the nature around us is that it must have been stink bug season....when we arrived, we saw several stink bugs surrounding our door, many of which got into our room. I understand this is uncontrollable, but I wish there was some type of spray or pre-removal. The spa was very relaxing. We really enjoyed our breakfast (3-course meal) and the chef visited us at the end of the meal. Overall, a great stay in West Virginia

We booked our stay at Hillbrook through Living Social. We loved the property and enjoyed our stay in the main house. We did not get a chance to take advantage of the spa or dine with them on Saturday night - so we have booked another stay in December for a nice getaway in the middle of the holidays. We upgraded to a cottage so we can take our dog with us. I believe this will be a regular getaway for us.

This was an incredible experience. The inn has a history that the friendly staff provided. The grounds are meticulously maintained and the rooms are excellent. The food experience was outstanding to say the least. I would not hesitate to visit this inn again, even if it meant a substantial detour. It is also an end-point destination.

We stayed in the main house suite and it blew our minds. The rooms are fabulously decorated and compliment the entire house. This means no TVs in the room, but you do have an iPad, fully charged, for you to use if you so desire entertainment. The coffee was great with in room Keurig and up-to-date bathroom amenities. Breakfast was mind blowing. Each day's breakfast is different and crafted for the exact amount of guests, so this ensures freshness and quality, which is through the room. I promise you: you've never had a breakfast this incredible. Two courses each morning, delicious coffee, and a spectacular view of the grounds. Worth a booking here again JUST for the breakfast experience. Staff were attentive and ready to please. The house and grounds are meticulous and as a couple who've spent years in England, this entire place could have been plucked from the English countryside and plopped on our lap. A true gem on the East Coast that cannot be missed. An absolute dream to treat your very special loved one.

We stayed in the Bamford Suite…..lovely, clean, comfortable and very, very spacious. 2 seating areas, plus a private covered patio. Make time to sit outside with coffee or a cocktail. You have your own private driveway which was so convenient. I definitely will be back in the winter. The trees with the snow will look awesome. Christopher greets you with a glass of Prosecco. He is very warm and welcoming. Ask him questions about the inn, the history is interesting…….

My boyfriend and I stayed here one night, and were more than satisfied. Upon arrival, the staff was friendly, knowledgeable and set a great tone for the trip. The main building and grounds have a lot of history which add to the beauty of it all. We stayed in the Farmhouse about 2 miles away from the main building. The security on the building was fantastic, the room was clean, spacious, and more than what we hoped for. I would absolutely stay here again, and have already recommended it to friends and family.

Hillbrook Inn was a very pleasant surprise within 2 hours of Washington D.C. The Inn is quite charming and looks like house out of a Thomas Kinkade painting. The rooms were very clean plus the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The location was great too. We were able to hike and paddleboard at Harpers Ferry in the morning. Then we were close enough to visit one of the many vineyard in the area that afternoon. It was a great stay and we hope to come back.

I have had the pleasure of staying at the Hillbrook Inn twice this year and cannot wait to go back again. The rooms are perfect, the staff is amazing, and the meals are nothing short of delicious and filling. In our most recent visit, we made a joke to the staff about me enjoying bacon and the next day during breakfast they gave us a special plate to enjoy. It's the little touches that make the biggest difference and their attention to detail is bar none the best! Thanks again!!

I have been checking this place on the internet for a while! Finally I used my husbands birthday as an excuse to get away for the weekend at this lovely place. I loved that I was able to book everything I wanted through their friendly website. Staff followed up with a phone call to confirm my booking and special requests. We were very pleased with the cooking class we took given by chef Roselyn. She was able to accommodate our request (combination of knife skills and grilling class.) the five course diner was delicious! You can tell the chef really puts a lot of care and attention to detail when planning these diners. The atmosphere at the dining room is lovely and our waitress was very friendly -- I believe her name was Becky. The room was very clean, comfy and cozy! We stayed at the summer cottage. Worth the money and hope to be back soon!

A very nice, well-maintained property with outstanding attention to service detail. A great place to unwind for a getaway if you are in the area. The Wine Tour was especially enjoyable. The breakfast was beyond the normal B&B fare. Thanks, to Ed (for a great wine tour), Andy (for a smooth check-in), and Justin (food). A strong recommend!

Would definitely stay here again. The power was out for about 2 hours our first night, and they allowed us to move to another room. We actually couldn't find the other place, and they graciously offered to drive us over there. However, by the time we got to the main house, the power was back on!! After we checked out, the hotel still gave us a credit toward a future stay!! Very nice staff!!!

Stayed for 2 nights at the Sunset Suite in the Farmhouse and had the 3 course dinner. The property is absolutely beautiful (the main building looks like it's out of a fairytale). The staff and service here are phenomenal. In particular, Ricardo's warm personality made us feel just at home upon check in and both Marci and Bobbi's follow up to our requests were handled with a smile and a very high level of service. The first evening we were there, a nasty storm blew through and knocked out power to the property, both the staff and the owner herself, went above and beyond in this situation that was beyond their control. You could really tell, they cared about our experience and comfort. Justin was the chef for dinner that night and everything was very, very good. The dining room is intimate, romantic and the ease of having dinner there added to the relaxed evening we were looking for. I was a little nervous about a pre-fixed menu, as I am a bit of a picky eater, but everything was delicious and there was nothing that I didn't try. In addition, the meal starts right away so you aren't waiting 20 minutes for the first course..it was just lovely. Wonderful...Wonderful...Wonderful...can't wait to visit again!

We stayed in the Sunset Room in the Farmhouse. Everything was so beautiful- the room, the grounds. Everyone we met who worked here was very friendly as were the other guests we met. The main grounds are really large and you can wander around them or find a quiet place to read, bird watch or just relax. Rooms were clean, the farmhouse and the main house were clean. We didn't have dinner here, but the breakfasts were filling and delicious. We came on a Living Social deal so it was a good value- would have been too expensive for us at regular prices and we probably would never have come.

We visited Hillbrook Inn to celebrate my retirement from teaching. We arrived late because of car troubles (broken water pump) but we hobbled on in feeling just as broken as the car.The very perceptive staff set to work right away putting us at ease and calming our nerves. Within a few minutes we felt quite at home. We are completely indebted to Hillbrook Inn.

I kidnapped my husband for a quick weekend getaway at Hillbrook Inn. The grounds and the lodge are both beautiful and incredibly picturesque--they look like something straight out of a fairy tale. One of our favorite things was just to swing on a hammock under the trees--the weather was perfect, with sunshine breaking through the foliage and a soft breeze. Our room (the Overlook) was lovely--impeccable, and very inviting. We were able to hear the chattering of our neighbors, which was a bit disturbing, and WiFi didn't reach our room, but other than that the room was comfortable in every way. The bathroom is small, but super cute and more than adequate. As for dining, I was nervous about booking the fixed-menu dinner because my husband is kind of a picky eater. BUT, all the wonderful reviews from everyone else convinced me to splurge on the 5-course dinner, and it did not disappoint! The chef kept in mind all of mu husband's dislikes, and everything that was brought to our table was unique (watermelon gazpacho), exciting (salmon over gnocchi with fresh tomato ragu), and absolutely delicious (corn-potato bisque, NY strip steak made to perfection)! Both my husband and I oh-ed and ah-ed about each course. It was a truly unique experience, and I hope very much we will be able to do it again! Breakfast the next day was also delicious. Staff was super friendly. Check-in and check-out were very quick and easy, and the welcome drink was delicious too! We will surely be back!!!

My husband and I stayed two nights at the Hillbrook Inn to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We ordered the five-course meal both nights and it did not disappoint. We stayed in the South Suite at the Hawthorne House which was absolutely beautiful and extremely comfortable. The only drawback was having to drive to get to the Inn for dinner and breakfast, we felt just a tad isolated from the Inn even though the Hawthorne House was gorgeous. Price point for the Inn is expensive but we feel as though we got what we paid for so that is why it met our expectations. We plan to go again sometime but will ask to stay in one of the cottages on the Inn's property, they are adorable.

This was our first time staying at a B&B and it was wonderful. The dinner was exquisite and so was the service. The breakfast is 2 courses and just the right size. There is a professional chef preparing the meals, which is an extra bonus above other B&Bs. We were given a tour when we arrived, along with a short history lesson about the property. The atmosphere is to die for. I simply loved it. Unfortunately, for me, I am a light sleeper, so sleeping under people does not work for me. My husband reminded me that it was not a hotel, it's a house and the noises one would hear in a home are the same one would hear in another house. We were under the innkeeper and it seemed that he did not sleep. There were a lot of things dropping on the floor. Next time I will take a sound machine. Next time, we are going to stay in the cottages, which do not have an upper floor, I think.

My fiance and I bought a living social deal for a one night stay and I must say we were pleasantly surprised. The place is really as beautiful (if not more beautifu) than the pictures and you could feel the history in the house. I also got a massage at the spa and it was very good. The thing we did not like was the room/bed. We stayed in The Pointe and the room was really small, but I didn't mind that too much. What bothered my fiance a lot was that the head of the bed was slanted downwards (by a lot) and it felt really weird to sleep on it. It felt like your head was lower than your feet. Other than that, I definitely recommend!

This is a real gem, and only about 1 hour from the DC area. It's a quiet B&B with a charming main house and a few cottages scattered around the property. Unless you need a large room or suite, the house rooms are very nice and cozy. Being in the main house is also convenient for breakfast and dinner. You must plan to have at least one of your dinners there. There's no menu and the chef prepared 5 dishes (or 3 depending on the night of the week - check the B&B for details), and each one was a delight. Some of the best spinach, potato au gratin and steak I've had. The broccoli soup was so good it actually tasted more like a potato leak soup with the broccoli flavor as a backdrop. All in all a very relaxing and enjoyable .

My wife and I returned once again to Hillbrook to celebrate our wedding anniversary. As I have reported in other forums, the service and attention to detail at Hillbrok continues to be outstanding. We stayed on our favorite suite, the Bamford Suite, which was once the master suite for General Bamford. The five-course dinner was excellent-Chef Justin continues to delight the palate and works very hard to meet dietary restrictions for those individuals who make such requests. We will return soon- my birthday is coming up!

My husband retired and wanted to spend his first week off in a quiet B and B. We have stayed at quite a few Select Registry properties but none with the charm of Hillbrook. We arrive the night before a snow storm was predicted and we enjoyed every minute of being snowed in! The staff could not have been more accommodating. We enjoyed the five course meals on two evenings of our 4 night stay. Both meals were excellent. We brought our puppy and I know he had as much fun roaming the property as we did. There were deer, geese, ducks, heron, quail, and more! The sun rise was beautiful from the Winter cottage. Thanks to both the breakfast and dinner chiefs. Our sincere compliments to Bobbie and Laurie for making us feel so welcomed. We will be back!

I hosted my wedding reception at the Hillbrook Inn, and I could not have asked for a more beautiful location, more helpful staff, or a better experience overall. During the planning process, the owners were detail-oriented, prompt in answering questions, and always honest about things they could or could not accommodate with helpful suggestions for working around any issues that came up. It's a small, family owned and operated inn, and they work very hard to make sure no details slip through the cracks, that everything goes smoothly, and that all the guests are having a great time (they even drove my 85 year old grandmother to the side entrance in a golf cart when she couldn't navigate the stone walkway). On the big day, the Hillbrook staff kept track of everything (and kept everything on time!), so I could just relax and enjoy the day. And the food was amazing (even this NYC foodie was extremely impressed!). They have a fantastic chef, and the guests were all raving about how delicious their meals were. The main house is a beautiful and charming structure with eclectic antique furnishings--the perfect atmosphere for my small, vintage-inspired wedding. The rooms are luxurious, and each one is unique. Plus, the inn is surrounded by natural beauty: flowers, trees, ponds with turtles swimming in them--the location is idyllic. Thanks to the Hillbrook, it was a care-free, romantic, and happy day. My husband and I will definitely be back for a romantic getaway on our anniversary next year!

I had arranged a visit here on a short notice. I was a bit skeptical I'll admit. I had never been to a B&B before. We stayed at the Serenity Suite which was fantastic. Very quiet, peaceful, and cozy. Even has it's own sauna! The Inn and grounds itself were also very nice. We opted for the 5 course dinner one night and every course was delicious. Breakfast was also very nice. My fiance utilized the onsite spa and was very happy with it as well. The Inn itself was also close to Charles Town and we visited Harper's Ferry too. All and all, a great time! My only issue was that upon returning to our room one afternoon we found a very large number of stinkbugs inside it. We never opened the windows but I believe they got in through them somehow. It appears the window screens were not secure and the bugs found a way inside. I won't knock the place too much for mother nature though. The room itself was still fantastic but I suggest having the outer window screens checked to ensure that insects don't get in that way.

I was looking for a quiet place for a romantic getaway that was close to home. Hillbrook Inn came highly recommended and it lived up to all the positive reviews. After I made the reservation I received a personal e-mail from the staff and was able to make some additional requests for our stay. The staff greeted us immediately upon arrival and offered us a hot beverage and snack while we checked in. We were given a tour of the inn and personally shown to our room. The fireplace in our room made it very cozy and romantic. Dinner was absolutely devine - kudos to the chef. I highly recommend Hillbrook Inn - we will be returning in warmer weather for a longer stay to take advantage of the grounds and see the surrounding area.

This is about the 5th time my wife and I have stayed at Hillbrook and it's been a wonderful experience each time. The staff is great, the rooms are perfect and the food is delicious. The only negative experience of mine was the most recent stay when I left some clothing in the closet and they have yet to be recovered. I'm not really going to blame Hillbrook for this because I am the one stupid enough to leave them, but considering I called within 6 hours of checking out to inform them I had left clothing and they were still lost is unfortunate.

Lovely accomodations in one of the cottages. Main lodge is quaint, dinner was good, but not outstanding, breakfast was OK. Grounds are rustic, not well groomed, and atmosphere was spoiled by noise from the race track several miles away. Nice, relaxing getaway, but way overpriced! We had a gift certificate that covered part of the cost. Would not have stayed here if we had to pay the full cost. This is not a 5 star resort (although their weekend rates would lead you to believe they are).

Stayed in the Snuggery. As the name implies, it is snug. However, my wife and I found it very comfortable and cozy. The grounds are beautiful and the house unique. Breakfast is excellent, and very well prepared. We "stayed in" our first night and had dinner at the Inn. It is not inexpensive, but the food was superb and the wine pairing generous. The chef goes out of her way to accomodate food preferences. My wife utilized the spa services and was very happy with her massage and facial. The Inn is close to Harper's Ferry for a great day trip and the casino if you want to try your luck. We would definitely return.

Tyler is a great cook, Todd was so infromational about the history of the home and area, the dogs were dear and the cats a plus. Llamas and alpacas in the field and great wool gloves, sock, seaters, teddybears, slipper scarves and lots of jelly, and different syrups were just a few of the items one could purchase.

If you are in the Charles Town/Harper's Ferry area and you want the best, check out the Hillbrook Inn. I stayed there just a few weeks ago and found this to be an amazing property. The separate cottage rooms, which I stayed in are spacious and have comfy beds, whirlpool tubs and anything else you need for a romantic getaway. The property itself was my favorite part of the trip. It is a gorgeous estate and the main house transports you to a whole other place and time. Great Breakfasts, Great Staff & a great location to explore the area.

The breakfast dining was intimate, often I have felt at B&B's that I must sit with other guests, but at the Hillbrook, tables are arranged individually, or by couple, etc... the food was only what I would request. Dinner in the evening was elegant, creative, the Chef was attentive, innovative (I a vegetarian and spouse requesting vegan). Truly a flawless experience! - Amy

Dear Amy, Thank you for all your kind words. It was truly an honor to share Hillbrook with you both. I am happy you enjoyed the chairs in the Bamford Suite, they are personally one of my favorites. The chairs are special to me because my Aunt bought them for me as a Christmas gift the year we bought the Inn. I am also happy to hear that our Executive Chef Christine Hale was able to accommodate your dietary needs. We look forward to seeing you in the future and hope you have a wonderful new year filled with a little adventure and a lot relaxation!

Our stay at Hillbrook was thoroughly delightful. My sister and I took my mom there as a 70th birthday present and we all fell in love with the inn, the location, and all the unique decorations. It's a beautiful building and has fantastic character. Our room had lovely views of the grounds. It was breathtaking. The service was wonderful. I made a mistake and thought I had booked a room that slept three, but it only slept two. They were so helpful and brought a cot in to the room and we all slept comfortably. The breakfast was nice. I loved the sun room with the bright sunshine and great table settings. The food is very tasty, nothing out of this world, but we enjoyed every bite. We aren't coffee drinkers and they were able to bring us a pot of hot chocolate instead. I would definitely return to Hillbrook and think they do a wonderful job at making your stay spectacular. Thank you!

It was such a joy to meet all of you at breakfast and enjoyed the morning with you. We were so happy that we could accommodate with hot chocolate (a personal favorite as well)! Thank you for the wonderful words about the service, the beauty of the property it really means the world to each of us at Hillbrook Inn. As for the breakfast, I am glad you ate every bite, but will discuss with the Chef on how we can create a more sumptuous meal for guests! Thank you for sharing such a special occasion with us...it was an honor!

This is the firt place I've ever stayed that surpassed their web site. Gorgeous grounds, beautiful accomodations, excellent food. I want to live there! Kathleen from Baltimore, MD

Dear Kathleen:
I appreciate your view of the Hillbrook Inn! It is really hard to portray the beauty of the Inn in a web-site, but try our best! It is always nice to have that pleasant surprise when you stay somewhere special! We hope that you visit us again soon...and if you really want to move in...we take boarders. I am just kidding, but after your visit you probably aren't surprised on how many times we hear those words! It is truly a blessing to be at Hillbrook every day and enjoy what the property has to offer and most of all the guests!

This property is a must if you are a person that appreciates what is fine in life. This is an elegant, beautiful and peaceful respite with a reputation for excellent food. Privacy and quiet abound with spacious, beautifully decorated rooms. The grounds are beautiful and relaxing to the eye. Every detail has been thought of. This is a gem! And if you want to venture out..within a few miles there are rivers, hiking trails, and bike paths.

Thank you for such a wonderful feedback! It is a dream come true to be able to share Hillbrook Inn with our guests and look forward to seeing you in the future!

I came to Hillbrook to take a pre-ownership class for my Gammill long arm sewing machine. And it was a pleasant surprise. It's a beautiful place and there's been a lot of attention to detail. My room was very comfortable and I enjoyed the time I spent in it. I have often visited this part of West Virginia before but never knew about Hillbrook. It's a little jewel.I will recommend it to others as a great place to stay and I plan to come back.
Réponse du propriétaire
We hope you enjoyed your pre-ownership class for your Gammill. Thank you for noticing the details at the Hillbrook, the staff takes a lot of time in making it special for guests to enjoy. We believe the Hillbrook Inn is the best kept secret in Charles Town! We look forward to your future visits!

My husband and I are both retired so we often take long drives and enjoy staying at different Bed & Breakfasts and Inns. The Hillbrook Inn has become one of our most favorite places to visit. There are so many wonderful things I can say about the Hillbrook Inn. This is a Romantic hideaway with a touch of class. The rooms were exceptionally clean, beautifully decorated and warm and cozy. Our favorite is the Fall cottage with a king bed and huge bathroom. The Inn is perfect for a quiet weekend getaway. We often just sat outside and enjoyed a cocktail with the peace and tranquility of the grounds. Although the breakfast was exquisitely prepared and delightful you would be remiss if you did not have dinner at the Inn. The dinner consists of 5 courses with a different and specially selected wine for each course. This was an elegant dining experience with food prepared to perfection. The innkeeper and staff are just so helpful and ready to serve. Also, we like to spend a night or two in Charles Town and "contribute" to the local economy through the nearby casino/racetrack. We will definitely be back.

What a great experience! We love to get away to Hillbrook Inn for quilting classes and for the wonderful food. We haven't stayed in the main house, but the cottage has been just terrific. It feels like our home away from home - only better! If I could rate it better than outstanding I would! :) Well worth the money. You are truly treated like family here.

Thank you for all your kind words! It is deeply appreciated and I will gladly pass this review on to my staff, because it means a lot to them when guests feel like family! We look forward to seeing you in the future!

Thank you for the wonderful feedback! The Charles Town area is like a "backyard playground" for many to enjoy.

My boyfriend and I stayed here in late summer. We had one of the cottage rooms, and it was a superior room with vaulted ceilings, huge king-size bed w/quality linens that slept like a dream, jacuzzi tub and 2-head shower that was massive. The staff was overly catering and friendly, even boxing up our breakfast so we could have it in our room. The breakfast was fabulous. It consisted of a muffin, omelette, fresh fruit, hash browns, and sausage links. The scenery was incredible; it gave the feel of an old English manor. I can't wait to go back!
Réponse du propriétaire
It was such a pleasure to share Hillbrook Inn with you, and are happy to hear that we were able to make your time here special. The "summer cottage" is the first room I stayed at when I visited the Inn, before I purchased it! As you can see, I fell in love too! We look forward to your future visits!

We found this little piece of heaven about 6 yrs ago. Since then we try to stay here whenever we are in the area. This country manor is located on a beautiful piece of property between Berryville VA and Charles Town WV. A small stream runs through the property with horses grazing across the way. There is a small spring fed pond right next to the house that always has a family of ducks swimming around. The grounds are well kept and truly lovely. The inside of the manor is nicely furnished and full of antiques that the previous owner collected from her travels around the world. We stay in either the Winter or Fall cottage as it has king beds. We have also stayed in the main manor but prefer the privacy of the cottage. The service is good and the meals outstanding. People come from great distances to eat one of their famous dinners although we have not eaten dinner here. Everyone I have talked with highly recommends the experience. We have eaten the breakfasts and they are very good. We have also recommended this Inn to others and hope to stay here again soon.
Réponse du propriétaire
Thank you for all your wonderful feedback! It really means the world to us when guests share their experience of the Hillbrook Inn! It ultimately helps us to create an atmosphere that guests can enjoy! Your time and visit is deeply appreciated, and we look forward to spend time with you in the future!

Dee Price Miller
(June 22 to July 22) Like Gemini, water travel is singing its siren song about
faraway places. All sorts of plans, problems and fantasies are spinning around
in your head. If you go, you will have some unusual experiences but will enjoy
it just the same. The money is sitting there waiting for you to spend it. Go
where there will be plenty of sunshine and warmth. You have a lot of energy just
now or are undergoing a trying time with illness or surgery. In that case, be
quiet and patient.
LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) No one knows or appreciates what you are going through
right now. No one understands and they wouldnt if you tried to explain. Just
hold everything and do the best you can as good times are coming your way in the
near future. This is not the time to make any investments. If you lend money,
you will never see it again. It is possible that someone is deceiving you, so do
not be too trustful of partners, people you meet or those you know are enemies.
VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 23) A friend is causing you all kinds of worry. You want
to be of help, thats your specialty, but you are confused about what to do. You
are afraid of making a bad matter worse and you possibly would. Be practical and
nurturing, but thats all. Dont take any drastic steps. If your partner is
suddenly doing strange things or being deliberately careless, say nothing
ignore it. A group or organization can be of service to you now. Let this happen
and encourage it.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) There is plenty of action at work or within the
public you have to deal with and this is most confusing when you try to organize
your daily routine. A good friend understands what you are going through and can
be of help to keep you optimistic and on course during this very hectic period.
A child or a lover is acting in secretive or puzzling ways. It is not a good
time to plan on traveling as you are unsettled enough as it is. Changes occur at
a moments notice.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) The action that is occurring in everyones life
seems to be benefitting you as long as you sit calmly in the middle of the storm
and don't make waves. Many of you will want to travel, not to see strange
places, but to go back to familiar ones. Try not do anything that is impulsive
and/or strange in your social or love life. Be very calm when disciplining
children or you will go too far with your punishment and regret it later. Stay
calm, no matter what happens.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Investments are causing you to rejoice or to
worry. Be sure you know what you are doing in that area. This is not time for
experimenting or jumping ship. It is not a good time to remodel or make changes
in any property you own. An odd, unusual and impulsive person is not telling you
the truth. There can be a sudden emergency involving the plumbing in your home.
You will have a very enjoyable trip if you travel to an unusual place.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Partners have lots of unusual surprises for you.
Fasten your seat belt, it looks like a bumpy ride. You are already involved, so
join in and some good will come of it. Be ready to participate in the activities
of this person at a moments notice, because that is all the notice you will
get. Joining in will protect your rights and help you cope with any problems.
With a little imagination you can convert liabilities into assets in the very
near future.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Old lifestyles are disappearing and you are trying
to figure out what happened. If you have been doing your own thing you will find
it necessary to join a group or change your pattern of living to conform to the
needs of those closest to you. It is time to develop some new, interests that
have not attracted you before. It is time for you to realize how much your
behavior affects others. You will slowly start to work out any needed changes in
your relationships.
PISCES (Feb. 20 to March 20) You are showing people a side of your personality
that they never have seen before. You do different and surprising things and
will continue doing them for the next six months. You can become accident prone
because of moving too fast. You want to assert your freedom to do as you please.
Avoid working with sharp instruments and dangerous tools, particularly if you
are angry with someone. Accidents can happen, so be very cautious.
ARIES (March 21 to April 20) Family members or family traditions stand in the
way of everything you want to do now, or so it seems. You love the wrong person,
say the wrong words, admire the wrong people and feel blocked or put down
everywhere you turn. Number one, try not to quarrel with family or try to do any
building, redecorating, buying or selling property. Be as unobtrusive as you
possibly can and concentrate on having a good time going places and seeking
TAURUS (April 21 to May 21). Close relatives turn out to be your best friends.
You not only enjoy their company but find new interests in their hobbies and the
people they hang around with. You will be impulsive in the company of others and
prone to accidents of your own making. Move more slowly and cautiously and avoid
taking dares or doing things that you know make you clumsy. Do not rely on the
advice of friends or throw long range plans out the window. Be safe, not sorry.
GEMINI (May 22 to June 21) You may long to tell the boss off in no uncertain
terms, but dont do it. Money can be a problem now. You have both old and new
debts and find it difficult to get organized and spend sensibly. Listen to the
advice of a partner whom you trust to be honest and upbeat most of the time.
Some of you will be taking a cruise in spite of the expense, because it looks
like such a good bargain. You will have a good time but dont eat or drink too
many strange things. |

Health care providers' requests to Teratogen Information Services on medication use during pregnancy and lactation. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 19169677 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
BACKGROUND: Medication use during pregnancy and lactation is prevalent. However, current knowledge of the risks and benefits of medication use during pregnancy and lactation is incomplete as the best available evidence has been obtained from cohort studies of inadvertent exposures and registries. This situation may partly explain health care providers' (HCP) risk perceptions and thus the increasing number of calls to Teratogen Information Services (TIS). OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were (1) to identify the medication classes for which HCP are seeking counseling from the IMAGe center, a Quebec TIS; (2) to identify the medical conditions for which medication classes were used during pregnancy and lactation; (3) to identify and quantify predictors of medication information requests during pregnancy and lactation. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of data was conducted within the population served by the IMAGe center, a TIS based at CHU Ste-Justine in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, that serves the French population of Canada. To be included, calls had to be received between January 1, 2004 and April 30, 2007, and the subject of the call had to be directly associated with the exposure, or not, of a pregnant or breastfeeding woman to medication. Multivariate generalized estimating equation (GEE) regression models were performed to identify the predictors of medication requests. RESULTS: A total of 11, 076 requests regarding medication exposure during pregnancy, 12 055 requests regarding pregnant women before the exposure took place, and 13, 364 requests regarding lactation were included for analyses. Pregnant women were most frequently exposed to antidepressants (17.3), antibiotics (6.3%), and benzodiazepines (5.3%). Prior to drug exposure, the most frequent inquiries by HCP were on antibiotics (11.0%), anti-inflammatory drugs (6.0%), and antiemetics (5.1%). Inquiries concerning lactating women most frequently requested information on the drug classes of antidepressants (10.8%), antibiotics (9.1%), and anti-inflammatory drugs (7.8%). Depressive disorders were an indication of antidepressant, benzodiazepine and antipsychotic exposures reported to IMAGe. Associations were found between medication use and maternal age, previous pregnancies, trimester of pregnancy at the time of the call and lifestyle habits. CONCLUSIONS: The IMAGe received frequent inquiries on antidepressant, antibiotic, and benzodiazepine exposures, with depressive disorders being the most frequently declared indication. Predictors of medication requests were identified among exposed women during pregnancy, and breastfeeding women. These results emphasize the need for effective studies on drug use during pregnancy and lactation and for better knowledge transfer programs. |

By Matthew Hurley: As International Boxing Federation junior welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi's motor mouth revs up into high gear for his January 5th title defense against Herman Ngoudjo, the brash New Yorker took a few minutes to discuss a possible showdown with Ricky Hatton. "I've noticed a lot of people talk about me fighting Ricky Hatton," he said before engaging in a conference call with reporters. "Right now I'm focused on January 5th and shutting this chump's mouth up. So I'll discuss Ricky Hatton on January 6th. I want the best fights possible, every fighter wants that. But right now I only have Herman Ngoudjo on my mind.." Malignaggi, who won the title when he took a twelve round unanimous decision over Lovemore N'dou on June 16th, may be coming into his own as a serious player in the light welterweight/welterweight divisions. With several terrific young fighters all circling each other and looking for the opportunity to become the kingpin of the most talent rich weight divisions, Malignaggi can certainly stake his claim after taking on Miguel Cotto in 2006 and winning the IBF strap in 2007. His brave stand against Cotto in front of a raucous Madison Square Garden crowd proved that his arrogance is based in a truly tough young fighter. He showed there was a heart beneath all the flash and all the talk and also displayed deft boxing skills which have improved since that confidence building performance. Critics will say, and do say, that he ultimately took a beating to the face in the fight and that he remains a feather-fisted Hector Camacho wannabe. But unlike Camacho, who became a safety first fighter after absorbing a career altering left hook from Edwin Rosario, Malignaggi often stays in the pocket with his opponent, willing to trade but using his tremendous speed to step out after finishing his attack. It was that aggressive speed that befuddled the gritty N'dou and eventually sent him to the canvas. But like one of his idols, Floyd Mayweather, Malignaggi can become an oppressive personality. His trash talking is becoming Mayweatheresque and, like Floyd, he seems to be one of those fighters fans either love or hate. There's no middle ground with the 'Magic Man'. Also, because of his lack of power in either fist, his bouts have all the earmarks of becoming twelve round boxing exhibitions, thereby sapping them of drama. That is unless someone like a Ricky Hatton or a Junior Witter is able to draw out the tough New York street kid in Malignaggi like Cotto did. Ngoudjo, also a fighter lacking one punch power, doesn't look to be such an opponent but he is a talented fighter who gave Jose Luis Castillo all he could handle and fought tooth and nail with power punching Randall Bailey, coming away with a split decision victory. While the fight doesn't have the makings of a shoot out, both fighters shot their mouths off in hyping the bout. "Everything you say pissed me off," Ngoudjo said. "Yeah, yeah, when your head is bouncing off my fists, remember I said like a pinball, like a pinball I'm going to use you," Malignaggi shot back. "The best in the world. I'm the best in the world. Remember that. When you get in the ring and they're announcing my name, remember you tell yourself, 'I'm fighting the best fighter in the world.'" Ngoudjo then dipped into Mike Tyson's smack talking book and rattled off this little gem. "You're going to be my girlfriend in the ring." To which Paulie replied, "I know you're like that. I don't go that route. I don't go that way, buddy." And on and on and on it went. If the fight is half as fast and low down as both fighters insist it will be this could turn out to be a pretty good scrap. But don't bet on it. Regardless of what Malignaggi says he has Ricky Hatton in his sites for an already talked about summer showdown at Madison Square Garden. He won't do anything to jeopardize that. Malignaggi – Ngoudjo will take place at Bally's Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City and will be broadcast on Showtime Championship Boxing on January 5th.
