We had heard so much about this inn and friends had given us a gift certificate for Christmas that we might enjoy a get away. We did not want to leave! Virginia is everything you could imagine in southern hospitality. Her breakfasts and deserts were divine! We definitely hope to go back again.

Not far from I-81 but still feels secluded. We've been there twice and plan to go back again.

Virginia is just so warm and friendly AND the breakfast was fantastic. The location is really great, too. My wife is related to the couple that built the house in 1852 so this is why we selected it but we would really like to stay longer sometime. It has WiFi even though it is in the country.

The owner, Virginia is the nicest lady, her breakfasts were superb, her snacks too. She told us about the area, helped us every way she could.
This is a delightful,quiet placer to stay, the views are amgnificent, the river, the valleys, and the cobbler house is perfectly laid out, tons of space.
This is one of the best B&B's we've EVER stayed at, Virginia makes you want to stay for a month, I wish we could have.

Absolutely perfect. Beautiful, peaceful. Every detail of the cottage was lovely. This place draws you in and makes you wish you could live there. The food was out of this world, and the innkeeper is just wonderful. Don't miss this!

The Jacob Swartz House is one of the best, if not the very best, B & B that I have visited. The hostess has thought of every little detail that would make a guest comfortable. The B & B had MORE comforts than home ! The hostess was also very warm and accommodating. I had a wonderful time at Jacob Swartz and was disappointed that my stay was so short. I will definitely visit again.

The Jacob Swartz House is set on a beautiful bluff overlooking the North Fork of the Shenandoah River near New Market, a quiet vista to enjoy every morning when you awaken to the songs of the birds and see the squirrels dancing in the surroounding trees. Soon, Virginia brings you the most delicious, scrumptous breakfast you can ever imagine...all served on beautiful china. We could not begin to really tell anyone how tasty our breakfasts were. Try them yourself!!
The cobblers cottage was our lodging, but you would never know that over a 100 years ago this was a workiing operation to make boots and shoes. The ambiance is magnificent, with bueatiful furnishings in each room, including the screened porch off the lower bedroom.
After touring the community nearby each day, Virginia would have a huge dessert awaiting us in the "fridge" to enjoy. Thanks for being so special.

So many thoughtful touches and amenities - don't worry if you've forgotten something because she's remembered it!...Breakfast with Virginia is like visiting with your favorite aunt...I felt so comfortable and at home I didn't ever want to leave the the guest house though!
