Colonial Manor Inn  

"Colonial Manor Inn, the oldest operating Inn on Virginia's Eastern Shore, was built as a private home in 1882. It was purchased in the 1930's by Mrs. Leola Horsey who saw the need for lodging suitable for the working men and women coming into the area. She set up the boarding house, the Colonial Manor Inn. Her reputation for fair prices, warm hospitality and great cooking kept her house full. Her daughter, June Evans, carried on the tradition of warm hospitality from the 1970's on, but no longer served meals. Now we serve a full breakfast daily, family style, at our huge dining table that seats 14. There you will meet fellow guests, share stories of your previous day's adventures or the present day's plans. Through the decades Colonial Manor Inn, located in the historic waterfront community of Onancock Virginia, has kept its doors open to Eastern Shore of Virginia business travelers, visitors, vacationers, and honeymooners providing warmth, friendliness, and genuine hospitality to all those who have stayed at the Inn. Guest Areas The Inn is decorated with an eclectic assortment of antiques and collectibles providing casual elegance with an Eastern Shore of Virginia atmosphere. Relax & enjoy our newly renovated, enclosed front porch that is furnished to accommodate you year round. It's a perfect place to curl up with a good book & cup of coffee or for an evening beverage before heading out to dinner. Speaking of good books, there are many throughout the house for your use. The guest living room is also a place to make yourself comfortable or to even play the piano. You will most certainly enjoy the gazebo in the back yard that is lovely with all of the surrounding lawns & gardenlike setting. With almost 2 acres, you have plenty of room to meander about!
