The Farmhouse at Veritas

My wife and I spent two nights at the Farmhouse. It was a great experience! The grounds, inn, and our room were impeccable; the food and wine were superb, and the staff courteous and helpful. This is an excellent place to get away and relax. We found this to be a visit well worth the price.

An absolutely superb experience, from start to finish, every detail of our stay was excellent, nothing overlooked Our room, Cornwall was lovely, spacious, with a cozy seating area The public gathering rooms are beautifully decorated, a nice spot to enjoy the nightly wine hour, which was an opportunity to meet & converse with other guests Dinner was served in one of the formal dining areas-service was impeccable & each course was gourmet, Chef came to each dining room to interact with guests Breakfast was served on the lovely porch, with chef explaining each choice Cannot say enough about the staff, Jonathan greeted us upon arrival, was professional & engaging. Dining staff was very attentive, not at all intrusive.

As I reflect on 2021, one of our most memorable experiences was our stay at the Farmhouse at Veritas. We attended a wedding over LaborDay weekend and decided to spend 2 nights at the Farmhouse. The hospitality started before we even arrived. I had booked a room on the second floor far in advance of the wedding. Subsequent to that I had surgery and could not navigate the stairs. The staff was kind enough to call other patrons and we were able to switch to the room on the first floor. The experience once we arrived was fabulous. The room was very comfortable and the bathroom was updated. We had a delicious breakfast each morning out on the patio which included champagne and fresh orange juice. The chef came out to explain each dish. In the afternoon warm chocolate chip cookies were available and at 5 on each day there was a happy hour where can sample several of their wines. To top off our visit we also attended the four course dinner with wine pairings. The food was outstanding and the presentation of each course was Michelin star worthy. This was also another chance to sample their wines. To say the least, I would highly recommend Veritas to everyone.

We visited to celebrate a birthday, and could not have asked for more! We checked in to our room (Cornwall) around 4.30pm. It was immaculate - very clean, spacious and with a reading 'nook' and plenty of storage. The bed is huge, and was so, so comfortable. It was complete with a variety of USB chargers for mobile phones and a wider range of complimentary toiletries and a bottle of wine - great details! There are plenty of other areas, outside of the room, to read/ relax - sofas, verandas, porch, garden etc. You instantly feel revived, and I wished we had arrived earlier! There were fresh cookies and coffee/tea/soft drinks available throughout our time, and a shared fridge for resident use too. 5-6pm is 'wine hour' in the 'Gathering Room' (a cozy lounge with fire, sofas, books and a billiard table) with complimentary wine and a plate of small nibbles each. The Farmhouse really does elevate "Bed and Breakfast" to a whole new (fantastic) level! The evening meal (which you can book without staying), officially began at 6.15pm with a glass of sparkling wine, before we moved to our tables. The 4-course meal (no choices, although they cater for allergies etc - that suited us fine) pairs wine with the food - we were pleased to be staying over rather than one of us having to abstain and drive! The meal was European in style - small, perfectly cooked and presented portions which were a feast for the eyes as well as the stomach. The service was slick and, apart from a small delay before we started, was very efficient. Breakfast the following morning was equally wonderful - sparkling wine, fresh orange juice and coffee, a croissant with homemade sweet cream cheese, fresh fruit followed by a choice of savoury or sweet 'main course'. As we left, we were sent away with a couple more cookies for the journey, and a lasting positive impression of a wonderful stay.

What a wonderful experience from start to finish! Went to the vineyard tasting room in the afternoon upon our arrival. Excellent wines and views of the property. Stayed at the Farmhouse in the Devon room and was very pleased with the house, service and availability to sit in many different area of the house and relax. That night, had the fabulous 4 course meal prepared by chefs Cody and Rafael. Each course was delicious and paired with a chosen wine. Danielle David, the service manager and Keily (a server) were very attentive as were all of the servers. The next day for breakfast, the chefs once again preparer a fantastic made to order meal. He even came out to our table and explained the choices and described the meal! Truly a wonderful visit in a beautiful part of Virginia!

Our trip to The Farmhouse at Veritas was just what I needed to renew and energize. The summer was so busy and September was stressful. An early October stay at The Farmhouse brought back my mental and physical fortitude. The staff was incredible, the accommodations were perfect, and the food paired perfectly with the wine. The chefs at The Farmhouse are excellent and the waitstaff during meals are so attentive. The innkeepers made certain every request was fulfilled. I highly recommend The Farmhouse at Veritas.
