Welcome to the Carriage House Inn!

The Carriage House Inn, an award-winning Lynchburg, VA bed and breakfast, is located in the historic Daniels Hill Neighborhood within walking distance of downtown. The charm, grace, and hospitality of the original Watts family and their grand home has been retained by the current owners, Kathy and Michael Bedsworth.

The home is a treasure trove, rich with architectural detail including many of the original fireplaces (9), mantels, light fixtures, moldings, intricately carved woodwork, doors, bathtubs, and sinks. The four guest rooms in the circa 1878 Italianate mansion are oversized and well appointed to include fine linens, fluffy towels, comfy robes, and slippers. Colors throughout the house are representative of those used in the late 1800s. While staying here, you will find the atmosphere to be warm and inviting. Guests staying at The Carriage House Inn Bed and Breakfast can enjoy the mansion much as it was back in the 1800s, with some updates such as shower enclosures in the baths, central air and heat, and Wi-Fi.

Our guests love to explore the area where there is so much to see and do that many of them make return trips. By far, the best reason to visit our bed and breakfast in Lynchburg, Virginia is to get away from the rat race and to relax. The downtown dining experience offers a wide variety of cuisines, many in historic structures. There are four colleges in and around Lynchburg. You may also find us to be a welcome alternative to a hotel when visiting Appomattox, about 45 minutes away.

This is the perfect setting for engagements, weddings, honeymoons, romantic getaways, girls’ getaway weekends, anniversaries, birthday celebrations, family reunions, and business retreats. It is the ideal place to relax, rejuvenate, and reconnect.

Our circa 1910 CARRIAGE HOUSE, renovated and restored in 2009, features two additional guest suites, each with California king beds and a private bath with an antique claw-foot tub and separate shower. On the main level is a meeting and event venue.

We are just 6 blocks away from hiking and biking trails through Blackwater Creek or along the James River. Our wraparound porch invites you to relax in a rocking chair to read a good book or just to sit back and enjoy the hospitality. Each morning, savor our legendary breakfast before visiting one of the many historic sites, cultural or outdoor activities. For those wanting to be pampered, our massage and body treatment studio is now open and offers a selection of massages and body treatments.
