BARCLAY COTTAGE BED AND BREAKFAST CHOSEN

ONE OF THE TOP B&BS IN MID-ATLANTIC AMERICA IN THE BEST OF BEDANDBREAKFAST.COM AWARDS

Virginia Beach, Virginia

-- Barclay Cottage Bed and Breakfast of Virginia Beach was chosen as one of the best bed and breakfasts in the Mid-Atlantic Region of the United States in the annual Best of BedandBreakfast.com Awards, 2008-2009. The Best of BedandBreakfast.com Awards are based upon a qualitative and quantitative review of the nearly 50,000 independent reviews submitted to BedandBreakfast.com, the leading online B&B directory and reservation network worldwide.

"We know how important independent reviews are. We're pleased that inngoers concurred that Barclay Cottage is a favorite among those seeking the B&B experience," explained BedandBreakfast.com's Sandy Soule, one of the most highly recognized authors and a spokeswoman for the B&B industry. "It's clear that Barclay Cottage Bed and Breakfast earned high marks from inngoers for their fine accommodations, breakfasts, amenities, and wonderful hospitality and service," commented Soule.

"We are thrilled that we were chosen for a Best of BedandBreakfast.com Award, and are pleased that our guests posted reviews that resulted in this award," stated Innkeeper, Marie-Louise LaFond. "It is gratifying that our attention to the details that make a difference to guests were recognized by inngoers who took the time to write reviews of our inn," she continued.. Here's an excerpt from one of our reviews: "Outstanding Property! Everything about Barclay cottage is top notch. Very clean, excellent breakfast, very comfortable, and great innkeepers. We felt very much at home as soon as we walked in and Steve and Marie Louise made sure that we had everything we needed..."

Barclay Cottage Bed and Breakfast was built in 1895, served as a private school for 50 years, and has been graciously welcoming guests since 1917, making it one of the oldest continuously operating lodging establishments in Virginia. Located on a quiet street in an historic neighborhood, it is only a three minute walk to the bustling activity of the boardwalk and beach. One of only two remaining Victorian era cottages in Virginia Beach, it has all modern conveniences including: central heat and air conditioning; a Guest Business Center with computer, printer and copier; property-wide WIFI and jetted tubs. The many antiques, hand-made quilts, and Victorian memorabilia take one back to days gone by. One constant is the outstanding service provided by the innkeepers. http://www.barclaycottage.com

About the Author

Williamsburg Highboy in Choice of Color $6572 With style and storage space to spare, the Williamsburg Highboy lets you escape to a realm where a coastal palette seduces your senses, where relaxation washes over you and the chaos of everyday life fades away. Timeless designs and evocative textures blend seamlessly to create a superbly appointed environment - a place to live, entertain or escape. With a collection inspired by some of the most impressive coastal locales - Nantucket, Newport, Carmel and Bar Harbor, to name a few - you can expect an equally impressive product. This unique artisan raises the standard in design and construction. Each piece is handcrafted from the finest plantation-grown mahogany and premium veneers and trim. Craftsmen use state-of-the-art techniques to produce the timeless soft patina. Their skills can further be seen in the distressing, dry-brushing and antiquing that shapes the character of each piece of handcrafted furniture. And a closer inspection will reveal drawers constructed of renewable, plantation-grown mahogany and made with traditional dovetail joints. The Williamsburg Highboy is available in your choice of color and featured in Vanilla Bean.
