The Old Rose Tavern, situated in Historic Madison County in the Blue Ridge Mountains, opened its doors to aristocratic travelers in 1835. Expect the same kind of aristocratic treatment as you step back in time. Each of the three spacious suites has it's own sitting room and private bath. Every room is appointed with consigned antiques that are available for purchase. Savor a four-course gourmet breakfast served in bed, in your sitting room, on the veranda, or in the formal dining room. Enjoy a relaxing stay in a beautifully restored pre-Civil War home. There are many of Virginia's most attractive and popular natural and historic sites within minutes of us. Skyline drive, the towns of Madison, Montpelier, Monticello and Ashlawn, Michie Tavern, area Wineries, Civil War battlefields and historic monuments await a visit from history buffs.
