Uphill House B&B
Gordonsville, VA
Virginia Green is the Commonwealth of Virginia’s campaign to promote environmentally-friendly practices in all aspects of Virginia’s tourism industry. Virginia Green has established "core activities" specific to each sector of tourism, and these practices are considered the required minimum for participation in the program. However, Virginia Green encourages its participants to reduce their environmental impacts in all aspects of their operations, and this profile provides a full list of all their “green” activities. These are the activities that guests / customers can expect to find when they visit this facility.

The Uphill House B & B is a modern bed and breakfast facility. We offer five beautiful guest rooms with in suite bathrooms.
We are extremely environmentally cautious individuals and wanted that to transfer to our business outlook. This also allows us to educate our guests on being green.
