We rented all of the rooms (4) at this historic Inn for our family to attend the graduation ceremony at Shenandoah University. It was fabulous. The innkeeper, Dave, worked with us to accommodate all of our traveling family members, and also prepared a fabulous brunch for us to celebrate our daughter's graduation on Saturday morning. On Friday night, Dave and... More

This place is just cool! The old and lovingly restored house is just amazing. David's collection of "stuff" is equally as amazing. David was really hospitable and always went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable. I would recommend this B&B to anyone looking for a unique but homely place to stay. Great southern hospitality! David also has... More

If I could give this Inn more "stars," I would. Upon entering the Inn, one steps back into a slower, simpler time. But don't let the historic decor and period artifacts fool you. The Inn features all of the modern amenities, including a beautiful upstairs bath (we stayed on the 2nd floor) and free Wi-Fi. David often hosts old-time music... More

Lots of rave comments here I concur with and won't reprise at length. We stayed three nights in the 2d floor front room. Very comfortable bed and VERY quiet even though it fronted the street. Even though David has added wifi I didn't use it and didn't miss the internet; too much good music, conversation and stories happening. Breakfast was... More

Just returned from a girl's weekend, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Nancy Shepherd House. Our host David was very welcoming and the beds had the most comfortable mattresses I've slept on in a long while! The location can't be beat -- just a short walk to old town where there are great restaurants and shops. We will definitely... More

As B&B owners for more than 25 years, we were impressed by David's restoration of his colonial home. We know that hospitality and comfort in the rooms are are both quite important. David was an excellent host and we were quite pleased with our accommodations, which ecompassed the entire top floor. Of all the historic VA towns we visited on... More

Great little historic row house inn bursting with antiques and personality just a short walk from Winchester's historic pedestrian area. David is a gracious host, I felt immediately at ease here. He is also a great musician and if you are lucky you will catch a bluegrass jam at the inn. No better base for exploring Winchester!

This B&B was by far the best place we've stayed in during this summer's US trip. We've travelled a lot in the US, specially these last few years, when we spent most of our time in Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina & Georgia. We've stayed at many beautiful places but the beds always seem to be of a... More

My husband and I chose the Nancy Shepherd House Inn after seeing it was so highly rated on TripAdvisor. It's a very laid-back and charming place. Owing to some good timing on our part, we were the only guests the one night we stayed, and it was so quiet and relaxing... We stayed in the room at the top of... More

My wife and I spent two nights (May 25 and 27) at this intimate bed and breakfast just a few minutes' walk from the pedestrian mall in downtown Winchester.

"Quirky" is a good word for this authentic old inn. I'm glad this reviewer pointed out the need to bend over a little on the last landing going up to the third floor, which is a typical oddity with many pre-revolutionary buildings. It was wonderful having this guest here. More

Wonderful old inn in an ancient historic tavern building right downtown in Winchester's Old-Towne district, with great restaurants, shops, pubs, and museums all around within walking distance. The breakfast at this inn is excellent but it is optional so if you decide to go out for breakfast, you save on the cost. The bedrooms are very comfy with queen-size memory foam mattresses with luxury linens. Two bedrooms have gas log fireplaces. There is plenty of free high-speed WiFi. ... more   less
