Bidrage med feedbackA great B&B, run by a fantastic couple. The rooms are nice, roomy, and cozy. With the hosts also having a tea room, they are always offering a pot of anything you'd like. The breakfast was a nice filling meal cooked with our dietary restrictions in mind.Rooms: 5/5
We visited the tea room as a group for a cream tea (scone and tea pot) and WOW was I surprised that in the mountains of WV I found some of the best scones I’ve had. That’s saying something as I spent time in Britain. The tea menu had so many options it was almost overwhelming—there’s nothing you can imagine that’s not available here. The clotted cream and lemon curd were just the right addition to the tea and the host was delightfully personable. Be ready to spend some time here, as the pace is intentionally leisurely.
I hate to rain on the love parade, but our experience at the White Pines left us disappointed. For starters, I think it 's important to know that this bed and breakfast is nothing more than a guest bedroom in someone 's house. There 's nothing of the estate to the experience. Perhaps this is to your desire and if so, you 'll surely love it.For us, however, the notion of sleeping in a guest room in a stranger 's house provided neither the sense of privacy nor the sense of freedom we 've had in other such stays. There are rules/absences of comforts which made the stay seem restrictive (no food or drink in your room and unwelcoming (no TV or other entertainment aside from books in their library . In short, we felt like we stumbled into a house and were put up for the night, opposed to feeling like we had our own room and privacy to relax and unwind in our way, like perhaps snacking or drinking and maybe watching a movie. I get the off-the-grid thing and we 've done that before, but there was more to do in those locations and the room itself offered more privacy and more options to unwind.The hosts were nice enough, but perhaps overly so, and the hosts and their permanent houseguest lazying around the TV (which we were invited to join in for... as entertainment was not the kind of host/guest experience we 're used to at all. They kept telling us we were like family, but that 's not why we go to B&Bs. We don 't need a family, we need a getaway, down time, alone time, even a smidge of luxury, and most certainly privacy. We felt like we had to keep our volume low so as not to wake the hosts, even though we could hear everyone else 's conversations, and there 's an intercom system in the room that we had no way of knowing was eavesdropping. This isn 't our first B&B at all, but it 's definitely not what we hoped it would be, either. We had booked two nights, but left after just one. Even at that, had we not arrived so late, were dog-tired from the drive, and had wanted to experience the Apple Butter Festival the next day, we 'd have turned around and drove back home that night.If your idea of a B&B is getting to know strangers and sitting around like family, then this is your cup of tea. If you seek escape, privacy, to be treated like responsible adults who won 't spill or get things dirty (shoes off in the house, children! then you won 't like it here.
Ah ma zing!!!! Luved everything about this place. Beautiful, big house, gorgeous view of a sea of trees and fields, quiet, close to the quaint town of Berkley Springs. The absolute best part of the visit? The innkeepers. We feel like part of their family! FYI The Tea Room is to die for! The pictures don't do this place a lick of justice.
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at White Pines and met the most amazing hosts! The B&B is out in the countyside just minutes from Berkeley Springs and the rooms are comfortable and relaxing. Anthony and Kathleen indulged our every whim and were so hospitable! They are wonderful hosts, and make you feel like family. They keep you up to date on events in town, as well as attractions, and their recommendations for spa treatments are great. We also visited Ellen’s Tea Room during our stay, and they provided us with an incredible selection of sweets and savories that were so delicious. Enjoyed our long weekend so much, I felt like we made wonderful new friends! Thank you for an incredible weekend and will see you next time we are in town!!! Love Brian and Lisa
