Description

The Tannery was built circa 1820 on Old Germantown Road, an historic central byway, which in its heyday was in important part of revolutionary Virginia and used for the exploration of the then western frontier. Constructed with handmade brick and heart pine beams, The Tannery was initially a blacksmith shop, a tannery and a relay station for riders to obtain fresh horses.  In 1997, The Tannery was updated, remodeled and furnished with antiques. Large double back porches overlook two streams, a lovely treed half acre and the Alleghany Mountains. The Warm Springs stream flows though the rear of the property, with warm mineral water around 90 degrees. There is a small pool and waterfall for a unique soaking experience day or night. To the front and side of the house, a cold artisan spring supplies The Tannery with the purest water and then trickles through watercress to meet the Warm Springs stream.

"We had such an incredible time at The Tannery for the third consecutive year. We didn't want to leave, again. It's so comfortable and lovely.  My husband and I watched birds with our morning coffee, then went for a hike through Hidden Valley along the Jackson River. At cocktail hour, we wandered down to the pub at Grist Mill Square. We ended up having a wonderful dinner there too. The rest of our evening was spent by the fire at The Tannery. What a wonderful way to spend our anniversary!"
