Circa 1859 historic manor home located in the Fredericksburg National Battlefield Park. Sitting on 27 acres of beautiful park land, Braehead served both north and south during the Civil War. Gen Lee took breakfast here at Braehead the morning of the 1st battle of Fredericksburg. Three rooms with private baths - Two suites and have adjoining sitting rooms. Gourmet breakfast served & many extras. Braehead Manor is minutes from Old Town Fredericksburg, known for antique stores and unique gift shops.
We attended a wedding and it was gorgeous. The wedding party stayed 2 nights and had a fabulous time. The Manor is historic and is beautifully maintained. They have a covered pavilion for receptions. The bedrooms are quaint, but you do have shared bathrooms.

We had been looking for a place midway from our home to a family reunion. We found a gem. From the moment we arrived Mary Windsor made our stay a pleasant one. Almost like we were part of the family. The accommodations we excellent and the lush greenery surrounding this historic home gorgeous.

Three brothers in their 60s came to Fredericksburg to trace the steps of a Gr Gr Grandfather in the Battle of Fredericksburg. Turns out he fought just up the road from this wonderful inn. Mary, the Innkeeper, did everything she could do to make us feel at home. We enjoyed evenings on the back patio, mornings on the front porch and delicious breakfasts. A quiet location, yet close to downtown. Spacious rooms and bathrooms. This would be an amazing venue for a small group, sleep-there-too event.

We came to Fredericksburg on our way from Charlottesville to Pennsylvania. Had liked the town when passing through before ad wanted to stay for a couple of days to explore. Picked Braehead Manor as a result of TripAdvisor reviews. They were accurate! The inn itself is lovely and peaceful. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed. Mary, the innkeeper, is so nice and so helpful! She prepared delicious breakfasts for us and helped us with dining suggestions, etc. We recommend Braehead Manor highly!

Can't say enough about our 2 night stay at Braehead Manor! It's a beautiful 1859 Manor home decorated to the period. It's warm, comfortable and smells absolutely delicious the minute you walk in the door. Mary, the Innkeeper, was definitely the highlight of our stay. Her gourmet breakfast was to die for! Her attention to every detail is impeccable. Great location, just one mile from downtown Fredericksburg. So, no worries about parking or noise. Bed and bath linens are top notch! We would definitely recommend this B &B and look forward to our next visit there!

My boyfriend and I live 2 hours apart and needed a nice getaway and Braehead was the perfect escape! The property is beautiful inside and out and the amenities are great. Even better, the inn keeper is incredibly kind and hospitable. I will definitely be returning next time I need a relaxing weekend away from home.

My two girlfriends and I needed to get out of the city last minute and the Braehead Manor was the perfect get away about an hour from D.C. The hospitality of the Inn keeper made the weekend. I already booked for an April visit!

I surprised my wife with a stay at Braehead Manor this past weekend. The Innkeeper Mary helped me plan the entire weekend for my wife. Mary provided with a perfect recommendation for dinner as well as the Grapes and Grain Trail for an all day event on Saturday. Mary treated us to a wonderful breakfast before our departure on Saturday morning. The Inn is remotely located on the battlefield and is perfect for a quite, relaxing time. I would highly recommend Braehead Manor and the wonderful hospitality that Mary provided to my wife and I.

We stayed at Braehead recently for two nights. Mary, the innkeeper, was incredibly attentive/responsive as I decided where we'd stay and prior to our arrival (we spoke on the phone and she email me several times with alternate driving instructions, restaurant recommendations, and to settle a few details). The home is lovely- sits just outside of downtown (so close by to lots to do, but quiet) and is very private. We stayed in the upstairs two room suite and appreciated the privacy and comfort of the space. Mary's meals were delicious and she strikes the perfect balance of being attentive/conversational without hovering in the least (a very rare balance compared to other BBs we've stayed at in the past). I'd recommend Braehead to anyone and Mary will take care of everything!

We spent two glorious nights at Braehead Manor and could not have been happier. Mary (Mary!!!) is your hostess and pamperer. She knows exactly what you need and everything is in place. We enjoyed every moment. Mary checked-in during our drive to Fredericksburg to confirm we were on the right track, and had glorious red wine ready when we arrived. After DC traffic we needed it! We attended family events both evenings and were greeted by Mary upon return. We loved talking about the Manor and watching the holiday decorations being given just the right attention. We felt as though we were learning and involved, and making a new friend! The Manor was also being prepared for pictures with Santa (those of you who live nearby or will be there next holiday season should take note). The Manor is stunning. Mary gave us a tour and explained its history. The rooms are idyllic! We stayed in the Jane Howison Beale Suite and would not have minded moving in. I think the towels were the most glorious I've ever encountered. You could have a party in the gorgeous and enormous bathroom (that is not a suggestion). The setting is beautiful and so very peaceful. If you're considering hosting an event here - ready, go! Breakfast was fantastic! We had a wonderful egg frittata, coffee, OJ and delicious fresh fruit. We were only able to have breakfast one morning as we had a VERY early flight the second morning - and Mary tried very hard to get us to allow her to do something to get us on the road. No need for all of us to be up at 3:00! But, she was genuine in her offer. All good things (way too good) must come to an end and we had to leave. But - we love Fredericksburg and look forward to a return trip and another stay at Braehead. Mary - don't go anywhere! Thank you, Mary and Braehead Manor, for the honor!…
