What a lovely well maintained historical bed and breakfast! We had a delightful time enjoying the front porch in the evening and the scrumptious breakfast in the morning. Shelia and Jerry were wonderful hosts. We would stay there again.

Very good (best) place to stay in Appomattox. Lots of antiques; bed was comfortable; clean; an outstanding quality for us was the value of the evening meal. The food itself was of high quality in a home cooked sense (I would not characterize it as fine dining). I had an excellent hamburger steak with gravy and mash potatoes...green beans too... More

We were in town for a family member's funeral and needed a place to stay. There aren't a lot of places to stay in Appomattox, but I read several reviews for this B & B and decided to try it out. My in-laws ended up getting a room here, too, and we are all glad we found this gem! Sheila... More

My sister and I spent a night here following an afternoon touring Appomattox Court House. We each had an upstairs room with a shower. Rooms are large with chairs or a small couch. Decor is charming. Sheila makes you feel welcome right away. This B&B has a restaurant attached, and we were lucky to be there on a Thursday night... More

My husband and I stayed for 1 night in The Abbit Room. It was very clean and comfortable. The house is beautiful and very well located (right in town). The breakfast was very good: fruit, orange juice, coffee, omelet with toasts and jam. The dinner is also very tasty and inexpensive. We had soup, salad, entree, dessert and coffee for... More

My husband and I cycled through central Virginia and happened to stay here on a Monday night, when their dining room isn't open. The B&B room was lovely, with bucolic views and nice furnishings. Sheila was most hospitable, recommending other options for dinner in Appomattox and accommodating our bicycles. Judging from the wonderful breakfast, I'm just sorry we couldn't have... More

While reading reviews on Trip Advisor today I ran across a very negative review of the Babcock House B&B in Appomattox, Va. I would like to state that I feel the need to disagree with this review. I found this to be a beautiful place with wonderful food. I also attended a wedding there. I have attended many weddings, but... More

We had dinner at the Babcock House one evening during our stay in Appomattox. We were staying at another B&B in the area (Longacre) and the proprietor there suggested Babcock as the best place for dinner in the area. She was right! Dinner is by reservation, and the Babcock is not open for dinner every night (closed on Monday for... More
