Historic Rosemont Manor

Adventures With Susan

There is so much history tied to this beautiful Manor home. I love the fact that so many Presidents have stayed here and have rooms named after them. Even John Wayne and Albert Einstein stayed here. I stayed in Winston Churchill’s room. I loved rocking on the wide white rocking chairs on the grande portico while looking out at the beautiful grounds. .

My wife and I booked the Rosemont Manor for our wedding last Fall and had an incredible experience. If you’re reading this and considering this location for your big day, we cannot recommend it enough (and we looked at a TON of venues in the Western Virginia area). First and foremost, our wedding coordinator, Michael Haymaker, went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care with all the additional considerations with respect to Covid. Not only that, but the entire venue staff were incredibly accommodating through our planning process and were timely in all correspondence. When we first toured the property, we were given the choice between hosting our event at either the manor or the barn (both located on the property). We opted for the manor and also booked the guest rooms and 2 cottages for friends and family. The Bird’s Nest suite (the newly wed cottage) was perfect for my wife and I’s first night as a married couple. For anyone with a taste for history or the gorgeous property, the stay is absolutely incredible and feels like a true bed and breakfast from the past. It was very beautiful and super convenient to have family and friends staying on the property the whole time. Planning leading up to the event took place over a year and half and never once did we feel ignored or forgotten. Between coordinating the guest stay and ensuring our vendors were updated on information they needed, we never had to question that everything was on track. Michael wanted to meet with us several times to kick things off and then numerous times leading up to the event to ensure nothing fell through unseen. We always knew that these meetings were important, but in hindsight, this meticulous planning and organizing was critical to the success of the event. We never could have hosted anything half as extravagant without all the planning that Michael offered and assisted with. Nothing was overlooked. All the work we did with Michael was highlighted and then elevated by the clear level of experience and professionalism all staff exhibited on the big day. We received numerous compliments on how friendly and accommodating everyone working was. My wife and I were particularly blown away by how everything just worked. With the unknowns of trying to do a mostly outdoor event (Covid) we were worried about the weather, but the Rosemont staff handled everything exceptionally. There was one last minute hiccup (due to an oversight on our part) and we didn’t have space in the reception area for a photobooth we had requested. Michael stepped in and told me not to worry about it. Needless to say, it was taken care of before we even had time to worry about it. The evening was truly flawless. We would recommend the Rosemont Manor to anyone even remotely considering it. Their experience, professionalism and genuine care for their patrons was of the highest caliber. You will not regret booking with Rosemont, period.

My wife and I joined our friends this afternoon for a tour of this wonderful mansion and "Tea". It was a magnificent experience and the "Tea" was fabulous. The service was absolutely friendly and professional. Paula Hallam was in charge of the "Tea" and she maid it a very memorable experience. We will absolutely be bake. Thank you one and all for the good time.

I have been to the Manor House Tea at Rosemont Manor twice. Once for a regular weekend afternoon tea (in winter) and once for their special Christmas Tea. Both times were absolutely lovely! I highly recommend tea here. The Manor House has been carefully restored and preserved by the family that owns it. Part of the tea includes a guided tour (of the main level) and a discourse on the history of the house (it has quite a history). I found this to be fascinating. For the Christmas Tea, the house was exquisitely decorated. It could have been and should be featured in Victoria Magazine and Southern Living it was that elegant, elaborate, and beautiful. For my second visit (the Christmas Tea) we started our tea in the carriage house with hot cider and a video. The carriage house was so beautiful it took our breath away and made my entire group want to get married again - there. Both times, it was a three-course tea (some of the teas change seasonally) and the menu was seasonal as well. The teas and food were delicious each time! I bought some tea for home on each visit. I particularly loved their Lemon Souffle Tea. I went to the Christmas Tea for my Book Club's December Book Exchange. They accommodated our party of 9 so wonderfully. They seated us at a large round table in a private room. One of our members is gluten-free and I was impressed with how they handled and accommodated her needs. She said her food was fabulous as well. We were not rushed at all during our tea and our cups were continually refilled. Both times were delightful teas. After the teas, we were encouraged to go upstairs to see and explore the bedrooms on our own. The bedrooms were named after people who have been to/stayed in the manor. The presidential suites were very nice and I intend to go back and stay in one for my anniversary this year. I also plan to go back in the spring to see the lovely grounds in full bloom. Both of my visits have been in winter and I would love to see what it looks like in Spring/Summer. Overall, I can't say enough good things about their Manor House Teas. They really are wonderful and if you are on the fence about going - reserve your spot now.
