Relaxing Historic Inn and Property

Beautifully renovated historic home that welcomes you from the moment you drive in. The property is vast and the immediate grounds are very well maintained with many activities to interest all-pool, hiking trails, and croquet. The public spaces androoms are well put together while maintaining their historic integrity. Grab a crab cocktail at the in-house bar and have dinner in any of the well appointed dining spaces. A great place to stay before/after a visit to Monticello.

We stayed in the Meriweather. Room was a bit too rustic for my liking. Floor was rough stone & area rugs definitely need to be replaced. Had to kill a couple of bugs in bathroom area as well! Food in restaurant was very good & staff very friendly. The grounds are very pretty. Don't think I would stay rhere again though

The property is a 10-minute drive from Monticello, and close to Charlottesville, if you even feel the need to do any sightseeing off the property. On the property, there are trails leading to a small lake and the Rivanna River. The chef is amazing. The two dinners and two breakfasts were superbly prepared. The wine and whiskey lists are extensive. The property is quiet and all the rooms are lovely -from the dining areas (the library dining room was my favorite for dinner and the veranda was delightful for breakfast) to the unique bedrooms. The staff is fantastic. It has been quite awhile since I had my room prepped for the night with a cookie placed on my pillow, while I was having dinner. The best part about The Clifton is that it is dog-friendly. I highly recommend it.

The Clifton inn is a very special and beautiful resort near Charlottesville, yet in a secluded location. The landscaping and flowers are just beautiful. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The dinner was gourmet! And the accommodations, pool, and amenities are wonderful. We heartedly recommend this resort.

The service here is impeccable and the design is beautiful. I ate dinner on the veranda, and the food was excellent. I was traveling for business so I didn't get to experience the pool area, but it looked very inviting. I would absolutely stay again, especially if I can bring my husband for a winery weekend.

Loved the character and style. Bathroom a little lacking with not fan and a bit tired. Decor was beautiful and imaginative. Grounds were beautiful. Dinner was good. Soup needs more acid, salt and pepper, but the mains were very good.
