My wife and I were on our way to DC and picked the La Villa out of the blue. The owners are very nice and gave us a grand tour of the house. They have both traveled and collected extensively from France and Germany and have decorated the house with their finds. They made us feel very welcome and we talked for quite awhile.
We were the only ones that night. We ate dinner at a great Italian place about a mile away. That entire part of the town is under revitalization. It's a little rough right now so the views around the neighborhood aren't great but I could see it turning around. The breakfast was great in the morning in the kitchen by the fire. We didn't get a chance to tour the town but it's a major civil war battle site and we'll do it next time.
