This was our first trip to Williamsburg and thanks to Jane and Fred Garland, the hosts helped make the visit very pleasant and memorable.

The property is mid forties and has been very tastefully updated with a lovely communal dining/breakfast room and lounge area. We stayed in the John Smith Room which was decorated to a high standard and had the benefit of a flat screen TV and a very comfortable queen bed.

The best part of the stay was the breakfast, freshly prepared as soon as we sat down with a sensible choice of entrees and a chance to talk to other guests and Jane and Fred, which on one morning we did for over an hour as they were so friendly, we felt as if we were part of the family

The Inn is only a short walk to the William & Mary campus, and colonial Williamsburg was only a short stroll further and suited our needs perfectly.
Overall it exceeded our expectations and we will return some day

Oh and by the way Jane and Fred, the offer still holds if you fancy a vacation in Orlando, Fl in Oct 2009 then dinner will be on us to celebrate my 50th

If bed and breakfast is all about comfort, cleanliness, style and hospitality then the Bentley Manor scores top marks in every category. Coming from England, this was our first experience of American B & Bs - and what a start. It was everything we hoped for and more. We spent the next week touring Virginia and enjoying every minute of it - but the warmth of the welcome from Jane and Fred was a wonderful starter. Can we come back please?

A wonderful time is all we can say about our stay. The room was so comfortable and every detail was done to make our stay a great one. We enjoyed Fred and Jane and felt like we were staying with friends. Don't miss the Sour Cream Pancakes at breakfast!

This was our first trip to Williamsburg and one we made on short notice without much planning. Fortunately, we didn't need to. Jane and Fred Garland, the owners and resident inn-keepers oriented us perfectly and provided perhaps the best B&B experience we've ever had.

The Inn is exceptionally clean and comfortable. It is tastefully decorated--no doll houses! Breakfasts are well prepared with a good choice of entrees. The Inn is a very short walk to the William & Mary campus, historic district and good restaurants.

The owners are gracious, friendly people, but not intrusive. We felt more like houseguests than lodgers. The other guests we met seemed to feel the same way.

Delightful hosts, delicious food and first class accommodations - we could not think of any way to improve our stay. Thanks Jane and Fred for making us feel special and for your recommendations on how to make our excursions enjoyable. We hope to return someday - to Williamsburg and to the Bentley Manor.
