Check Into the Clifton Inn
The white-columned Clifton Inn is set on 100 acres, which include a swimming pool and a croquet lawn that oozes the sort of genteel Southern charm you’d expect in Charlottesville. More of an upscale hotel than a proper B&B, it still allows you to enjoy a complimentary breakfast or afternoon tea on its elegant veranda.
Pack: A rich, leather carryall.
