About Our Virginia Bed & Breakfast Getaway

Meet the Innkeepers

Tom and Nance moved to Virginia from California in 1993.  While Tom worked in Northern Virginia, they scouted rural properties for many years.  They came to prefer the rural areas of Virginia over many other options.  In 2003, they purchased property in Madison County and named it the Hill of Content.  Soon they built a weekend retreat for themselves, the red Barn, a timber frame structure that you may notice in our outdoor photography.  In 2016 they completed building of a new, but made to resemble, “100 year old” farmhouse, one they could share with guests.  Having enjoyed many a Bed & Breakfast over the years, Nance and Tom now plan to host guests. 

About the Hill of Content B&B

The Hill of Content is located near the post office of Radiant, Virginia. It is near to the towns of Orange and Madison and not very far from Culpeper and Charlottesville, Virginia.  The name reflects upon the sense of peace and solitude that we discovered at the property.  Certainly guests can find some peace and quiet on the property.  We are very close to Woodberry Forest School for visitors to that campus and not far from the historic home of James and Dolley Madison, Montpelier.  To the west are the Blue Ridge Mountains and Skyline Drive.  The Town of Madison is just up the road and offers some interesting and historical stops.  The Town of Orange is nearby with antique, knick-knack shopping and food and beverage on offer.  A bit further south is Charlottesville and the University of Virginia, about a 45 minute drive.
