I stayed in the guest suites. The rooms were beautiful and cozy. Enjoyed using the balcony in the morning. Nice views from the room. Check-in was easy and I loved the common space with the free coffee and fire place. Would stay again!

Heaven on earth! Wide open land with cows all around. The property is so peaceful. The cottage area is well appointed. The bed is one of the comfiest ones we've experienced in our travels. Downtown for shopping and food is only minutes away. The highway is less than two minutes. We will be back!

The only reason I gave 3 stars for Staff & service is that we didn't see any staff, but didn't need to. With their online check-in, we skipped the check-in line and didn't have any issues. The room was spacious and upscale. My only regret was that we only had 1 night. Will keep this on our list of re-stays!

The description at Expedia suggested this was a bed & breakfast. It's not. I'm sure it is a superb event location for weddings, etc. We arrived at dark, with the house lit up suggesting staff was on duty. They were NOT; that was OK - until morning. There's no breakfast at this B&noB. Good luck getting the fancy Keurig coffee maker to work. I know now, but I'm not telling. The coffee pods were horrible, probably long expired. All said, the room was great, very clean, well appointed, all we really needed. Just don't expect any help or breakfast or decent coffee unless you bring it yourself. No I would not stay here again. I'm too old to get married again.

This review is one of those reviews where the place was great but could be better if. The property is in a very nice setting with cow pasture all around you with a very country feel. It is reasonably close to the town and we enjoyed Staunton. The room (Surry) was great. King size bed that was fairly comfortable, spacious room and private bathroom with a whirlpool tub (operational direction would have been better, but we figured it out) and roomy shower. By comparison, the TV was a bit small for the room. The location appears to have facilities to have serve breakfast but did not offer that. It would have been great to have a true Bed and Breakfast experience. They are clear about their linen policy on swapping out towels for only more than 3 nights. We had to ask for this service with our 4 night stay. In the end it was small things, but would consider again if in the area. We did enjoy our stay.

Breakfast was supposed to be included but none was provided. Combination for lockbox was supposed to be emailed but never was. Just happened to run into a housekeeper who rescued us. Very clean lovely views. Was charged a cleaning fee despite having to remove our own trash. Seemed that inn was changing hands and perhaps that resulted in these hiccups.

Beautiful, cozy, welcoming!
The grounds of Orlesa Farms are stunningly beautiful! From the gorgeous mountains surrounding it, to the rolling hills that it is situated on, to the Millstone Barn and main house. You will instantly feel relaxed and rejuvenated when you take a walk around the property, then follow it up with a relaxing stay in one of the Millstone Barn's rooms. The rooms are spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, and just cozy overall. We stayed in the Sussex, and really enjoyed the fireplace and private patio. Some instant oatmeal was left in our room so we could have a small breakfast the next morning, and the coffee maker out in the main area of the barn had a variety of coffee flavors to start our day. The hosts are incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating, so I would recommend a stay at Orlesa Farms to anyone!

Hi James Curry, First, We want to thank you for the review and for staying with us. We apologize for any inconvenience you may have had but please, next time you stay, utilize the forms of communication received and the emergency number given for any issues or questions you may have. You also could have easily communicated by responding back to any of the emails & text messages you received, or simply called the number your were texted from. These were all sent and received prior and during your stay but not utilized for your communication. Therefore, we were unable to assist you during your one night stay, or even have the knowledge of any problems you may have had. You may be happy to know that the problem was resolved swiftly, within seconds, using an item that was directly next to your toilet the entire time. Although this is rarely needed, it surely happens some times, so we understand. We don't feel your 2/10 rating represents how wonderful this place is and how special it is. Furthermore, not reaching out to us by the several forms of communication we had available to you (all of which were sent prior and during your stay), and then not returning our calls to help after the miscommunication, seems somewhat disingenuous. We do wish you all the best and safe travels, however your 2/10 review surely doesn't represent this wonderful place, and we recommend you stay somewhere else next time rather than at our farm. Sincerely, Orlesa Farms

Hi, Thank you so much for the review. It is a very beautiful location that just re-opened. Landscaping of the entire property could not be scheduled until early April so we hope you can come back and see us again. Although beautiful now, it will definitely "pop" once again! Regarding replenishing toiletries, we are always happy to help in anyway and replenish things you need, all you had/have to do is let us know. Unlike a hotel, we are sharing our property for you to enjoy. We do not clean rooms daily or just go in your room without you asking. This is your place to relax while you are here. After you leave, we prepare the room exactly the same based on the length of stay. We are happy to help/replenish in anyway, you just have to let us know while you are here, rather than after you leave. Our goal is that you having a relaxing and enjoyable stay at Orlesa Farms, which is definitely different than a typical hotel stay. It truly is an amazing place and we appreciate you staying.

I was looking for a relaxing weekend away with my sister and WestShire Farms delivered. The rooms are impeccably and tastefully decorated. I felt like we got more than our money's worth. Katherine gave us some great tips on where to go and what to do so we could take full advantage of the area. The food was exquisite. There are lots of extra little touches that aren't advertised. Scenery was beautiful and serene. WestShire Farms is a special place run by caring people delivering excellent customer service. I will be back.
