Talia and Charles have created a wonderful experience for their guests. The historic house is beautiful and the rooms are so comfortable. They were both so accommodating and went over and above to insure a 5 star experience. Talia is an absolute gem and Charles is a great chef whose breakfasts and dinners are absolutely second to none. The dinner package is a must. The Babcock House is a destination for future visits. And the history of Appomattox is awesome. Don’t miss this one.

One of the finest B&B’s I have stayed in. We stayed in the Patterson Room just completed last year and it was beautiful, large, quiet and it had a wonderful bathroom with a large soaking tub and oversized shower. We had dinner and breakfast which were both outstanding. They only serve guests so it is very intimate and the food was great. If you are traveling anywhere near Appomattox, this is a must stay.

We loved our stay. The inn was beautiful. The evenings we enjoyed sitting on the screened in Porch. During the day we enjoyed the area and went to Lynchburg. Our room was clean & comfortable. The breakfast was wonderful! This was a last minute trip but I wish we booked early enough to have dinner at the inn. You have to book dinner 3 days in advance. A couple we met said the dinner was amazing !

This is an awesome B&B. It is a must stay if you are ever near Appomattox, VA. The home is gorgeous, the rooms are beautiful, spacious and so comfortable. We didn't want to leave and plan on going back as soon as we can. Talia was a most gracious hostess and chef. The breakfast was awesome. Thank you for your hospitality and sharing your beautiful home. Charles & Karen Harris

This was our first stay at the Babcock House . It was a quick overnight stay. The overall experience was great. The House and rooms are beautiful. The hosts were very nice. I had lost a Necklace and I by chance called to see If left it there. I must say the most thing I appreciated was the help. They were honest in turning it in and the host was gracious enough to send it to me Thank you!!
