Farm Visits

Nearby farms offer tours and opportunities to pick your own fruit in season: berries, apples, peaches, pumpkins. Many of the farms are organic and/or feature sustainable farming methods. Talk to the farmer and enjoy the seasons through the fresh local food.

Art and Antique Shopping

The village of Sperryville and its surrounding area feature art and antique shopping, along with other small shops. The old Main Street has been recognized by the National Register as an Historic Village.  Whether you are interested in paintings, drawings, pottery, glassware or photography, Sperryville offers it all. Many of the artists call Rappahannock County home and feature it in their art.

The nearby town of Washington has many shops and art galleries and we highly recommend it as a beautiful place to stroll.

Fall Foliage

In October and early November, the trees begin to get ready for winter, offering visitors sensational leaf peeping opportunities for which the area is famous. Start with the huge sugar maple directly across the street from the Ordinary and move toward Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive. Bring your camera and a picnic lunch.

Driving Tours and Car Service

Don’t want to drive? We can recommend a car service with a sedan or limousine, or just a driver for your own car. This works well if you are touring wineries or just don’t want to drive after that special dinner.
