About Us

Three Centuries of History

Established in 1728, the venerable Red Fox Inn and Tavern stands at the center crossroads of Middleburg, Virginia, a historic village that lies in the shadow of the Blue Ridge and Bull Run mountains, home to renowned horse races, foxhunts and vineyards. Throughout the last three centuries, The Inn has provided the setting for many notable historical and social events.

During the Civil War, the Inn served as both headquarters and as a hospital for Confederate soldiers. While strategy was planned upstairs in what today is the Jeb Stuart Room, wounded soldiers were cared for in the tavern rooms below. The pine service bar, which is in use today in the Tap Room, was made from the field operating table used by an Army surgeon who served with General Stuart's cavalry.

More recently, however, The Inn has remained a popular destination for anyone who seeks a romantic hideaway in the heart of the hunt country. The Jeb Stuart Room, for example, served as the stage for a rare press conference by President Kennedy and as a meeting room for hopeful Democrats hosted by Ambassador Pamela Harriman, a local fox-hunting resident; Elizabeth Taylor often graced the Tap Room both during the courtship and after her marriage to a local gentleman, Senator John Warner; and the lovely and kind Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis frequently stayed at the Inn during fox-hunting holidays each fall. Today, film and music celebrities are often seen in the hotel and dining rooms.

Today, the Red Fox Inn maintains a simple yet romantic bed-and-breakfast charm. Our historic venue offers 14 hotel rooms, a full service restaurant, four private dining rooms, a large outdoor garden patio, and twin courtyard gardens, making the Red Fox Inn an ideal venue for your destination event. Imagine your wedding ceremony in our intimate Courtyard Gardens, then cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in the private rooms on the second floor of The Inn, followed by Dinner and Dancing under the tent on the Garden Terrace. As you plan your event with us, our catering department will assist you in customizing our property to best suit your event needs.

The Red Fox Inn invites you and your guests to experience the history and romance of Middleburg, the heart of Virginia’s famed Hunt and Wine country.
