Applewood Inn Bed and Breakfast & Llama Trekking, Lexington, Virginia

Applewood, our Virginia country inn, is conveniently located mid-way between Lexington and Natural Bridge at the end of a dirt road (sometimes single lane) which follows scenic Buffalo Creek. This Shenandoah Valley lodging facility is perched on 37 acres, high above the creek in a very private and beautiful setting. This passive solar home is furnished with antiques, reproductions, quilts, and original artwork with massive lodge-style, south-facing porches that afford lovely views of the surrounding woods, hillside pastures grazed by llamas, and the distant mountains.

Off the east end of the house is a full-sized, in-ground swimming pool and on the ground floor, a hot tub. Adjoining the Inn property are more than 900 acres of forest and meadow crisscrossed with miles of trails for hiking, riding (bring your own horses), and llama treks, two-hour guided hikes leading an Inn llama. (POOL OPEN BY MAY 19TH)

Quilter's Room - Spacious ground-floor room with four-poster queen bed, love seat, gas-log fireplace, and large bath with Jacuzzi/shower combination.

There is a two-night minimum on weekends all year round.
