Dine at The Inn at Little Washington

The Washington Post, Forbes and Travel + Leisure agree: The Inn at Little Washington is at the top of the B&B game. Located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the campus is speckled with vibrant colonial facades dating back to the 1700s. The Inn is home to Patrick O’Connell, named one of the top 100 chefs in the world by Le Chef Magazine and whom Robert Mondavi called “the Pope of American cuisine.” The menu boasts dishes like parsley-crusted loin of lamb and lemon and honey poached eggplant, all made with ingredients from over 25 local farms, as well as an expansive list of cocktails to please any palate. –LW / theinnatlittlewashington.com
