Walker House B&B

Petersburg, Virginia.

We have renovated the entire house with your comfort in mind and made every effort to assure that you'll have a relaxing and pleasant stay. Once you've visited Walker House, you'll fall in love with this wonderful old house, just as we did years ago.

Bed and Breakfast Description

The Walker House Bed & Breakfast is a large antebellum farmhouse. The first floor includes the living room, above, the walnut-paneled library, and the dining room, pictured below, which we encourage you to enjoy with a complimentary beverage. Our guests are also invited to relax on any of several porches, stroll through the gardens, or feed the koi and goldfish in the lilypond.

We fell in love with this circa 1815 "wealthy planter's home" on first sight. Although we would be better described as gardeners, and after four years of renovations, certainly not wealthy, we find this historic old house quite enjoyable. The four bedrooms are located on the four corners of the second floor with a hallway or bathroom separating them. So, once you 're settled in for the night, you'd think you were the only person in the house. All the bedrooms have cable TV/VCR, wireless Internet, A/C, telephone, and private bath. "Autumn" also has a working fireplace and a mini-stereo, and "Winter" has a two-person Jacuzzi as well as a mini-stereo.
