The following review was recently left for Glenlaurel Inn, a BedandBreakfast.com Diamond Collection member in Rockbridge, Ohio. The inn sits on a 140-acre estate that includes private walking trails, rock cliffs, waterfalls, and private gorge trails. Glenlaurel Inn consists of two guestrooms, two suites, and a nearby carriage house with a guest room and a suite. There is also an on-site spa, and you can dine on a gourmet, candlelit six- or seven-course dinner.

"An incredible getaway"
The best kept secret, (but it shouldn't be a secret) in the beautiful hills of Ohio. The entire package from the grounds to the spacious accommodations to the incredible gourmet dining is perfect. You would never think you are in Ohio, rather a resort area in Europe - how about Scotland! The setting is perfect for couples and my wife and I have celebrated three anniversaries there now...and it is just as wonderful in the winter as the summer. And all of the details are thought of to make your stay quite enjoyable. (P.S. You have to hike down in the gorge on the property and be sure to visit Cantwell Cliffs nearby.) Kudos to Chef Eric for the unbelievable dining! Bravo!
