“Perfect for a weekend getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2011

Extremely pleased with our stay at the High Street Inn. Both the house and the room we stayed in - the Blandford - were gorgeous. The room is much bigger than its picture suggests. There was a small fridge in the room and a pot of coffee made for us each morning in the room next door. The breakfast included in the price of the room was absolutely delicious and filling (four cheese omelet one day, cinnamon raisin french toast casserole another, rosemary potatoes, LOTS of fresh fruit).

Our hosts were attentive, accommodating, and just the right level of friendly. For example, not only did Tina ask about food allergies and dietary restrictions in terms of breakfast, but she also asked about and provided the kind of milk I take in my coffee. We were also provided with a map of Old Town and recommendations of what we could find in various eating establishments in terms of both food and entertainment. The house was in walking distance of everything in Old Town.

I was a little worried that our room might be hot considering we were visiting in the middle of a heat wave and many historic houses don't have CACH, but the window AC unit did a fine job.

Petersburg is great for a weekend trip if you like small towns, history, antique shopping, or have a thing for the past. Plenty of nooks and crannies to poke around in, and everyone was friendly, pleasant, and talkative!

Room Tip: The Blandford is the largest room in the B&B. The bathroom is not shared, but also not en suite...

“A fantasatic experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 March 2011

The entire family (11 adults and 5 children) stayed at the Inn where we celebrated a birthday party. The photos on their website don't do it justice! Every inch of the house is decorated beautifully. You feel that you are steeped in history from the moment you pull up to the house. The rooms are very comfortable and Tina is amazingly accommodating. The house was immaculate. Much better than sleeping in some generic motel/hotel. You will not be disappointed with your stay.

“A treasure in Petersburg!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 October 2010

The High Street Inn was recommended to us and we were not disappointed! This huge Victorian home was beautifully and comfortably appointed. The rooms were very large and the beds very comfy! Breakfast was tasty and filling. Our hostess Tina was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable about the area. She did not steer us wrong for sightseeing or dinner suggestions. There were several unexpected pluses, which I'll let you discover for yourself!

“Surprisingly nice find in Petersburg”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2009

My wife and I were referred to the High Street in and found it charming and confortable. Our hosts, Tina and Eddie, were very nice and very helpful. The Bollingbrook room was spacious and gracious. The bed was very comfortable.

We were just stopping on our way soutth from the DC area and were put off by the prices in the Williamsburg/Norfolk area so we figured Peretsburg is on the way. Old Petersburg was surprisingly interesting. We had not allowed ourselves time to see the things we found but now we have reason to go back. And we will stay at the Inn again.

They recommended a British pub and since Eddie is British, figured it would be good. I'd say it compares very well against the best pubs I'd been in in southern England.

“beautiful old house peopled with gracious hosts”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2005

Spent 2 nights at this beautifully decorated old house. The hosts were very pleasant and helpful and breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The Appomattox room was HUGE, nicely appointed and had LARGE bathroom with an old fashioned clawfoot tub/shower. While in Petersburg eat at Andrade's which is a short walk from the High Street Inn - we took Tina's advice and tried it. The food is a feast of Mexican and Cuban flavors and the staff friendly.
