“…We celebrated my future husband’s birthday on Friday night, and we got married on the front steps of the Inn on Saturday! There could not have been a more beautiful “destination wedding”.”
Peggy and Dudley Patteson truly know how to make guests feel welcome in their lovingly restored, schoolhouse-turned-into charming inn.
“If there was a six star ⭐️ rating, that is what I would rate my experience!”
“First class experience from beginning to end.”
“Our weekend trip for my husband’s 50th birthday has been nothing short of perfection! For a wonderful culinary experience eat at The Colonnade! You will thank me!”
“The Hope and Glory inn is a perfect weekend getaway. The area is beautiful and Peggy and Dudley are great hosts.”
“possibly the best food and evening we have ever shared”
“If you are looking for romantic weekend get away or just a girls trip, the Hope and Glory Inn is the perfect place to stay. From the moment we clicked submit for the reservation we were treated like family.”
“A gem nestled within a unique historic setting that provides the ultimate in charm, comfort and care.”
This is the place to go for a MAGICAL dining experience
“The dinner we had this past Saturday was one of the best meals we ever had and my wife [and I] are big time foodies. If you like history, wine and oysters, then you have have to come to the Northern Neck. And if you enjoy excellent hospitality and a unique dining experience, you have to check out the Hope & Glory Inn!”
“Our friends have been to the French Laundry in California and say this was better. Please go. You won’t regret it.”
“a Michelin star class plus restaurant in Irvington, Va”
“We ate…at Inn at little Washington…her meal was better”
“The innkeepers do everything possible to make you feel at home.”
A true gem in eastern Virginia. A four course fare by Chef Meseret Crockett left nothing further to be desired.
“…it started with asiago-flecked Rappahannock oysters, served in white shell-shaped ramekins. Then came potato-leek soup with local herbs, cornbread madeleines and—before a cheesecake dessert—lump crab with beurre blanc and Old Bay, that classic spice mix of the Chesapeake.”
A bed and breakfast with cozy rooms and darling cottages, the Hope & Glory Inn puts you right in the heart of small town Irvington. There’s a relaxing saltwater pool hidden away behind the inn, and a garden bath which is, yes, a clawfoot tub in a garden, is a surprising and restorative way to end a day. The inn’s restaurant, The Colonnade, is a fine dining experience in a historic space with Chef Meseret Crockett at the helm.
“Irvington is a scenic town with plenty of character and creekside charm.”
“Another unmissable… “main street”…Irvington attraction, the Dog and Oyster Micro-
Vineyard. In operation for over a decade, this beautiful… Chesapeake Bay Wine Trail
restaurant is an unforgettable dining experience where you can pair local wines
with ‘just out of the water’ oysters.”
