We were staying over one night on our way home from Florida. We thoroughly enjoyed both the Tinder Guest House and Ashland. We plan on returning.

We loved the location, close to everything. Sharon was a lovely host. You do have to be able to walk up a flight of stairs. I would stay again.

Stay for The Charm and The Bed
An alumnus of RMC in town for niece's wedding and found the TGH was outstanding. Sharon is extremely hospitable. Location could not have been better for our stay. Considerations: 1) long flight of steps to the living quarters, and 2) bathroom is about 60 feet from bedroom past two rooms where a tenant resides. I mention these as the stairwell might be a challenge for some and the location of the bathroom could be inconvenient too. Not issues for us but, who doesn't like having the bathroom close by? Game room was very neat but, alas we were unable to take full advantage. Sitting room view was wonderful. The breakfast was the definition of a continental breakfast.

Superb one of a kind property in lovely town
Super location if you want to experience some real Americana and very long goods trains trundling through town. Great little town, within easy reach of Richmond and Kings Dominion amusement park. Property full of character, history and a games room. Sharon was a fantastic hostess and her breakfast casserole amazing.
