Really enjoyed it. So understand they do have set times for the house tour. You can't see it alone because it is very valuable stuff they have invested a lot of time and money in recovering and you would miss out on a lot of great stuff and information. The outside buildings he explained and we saw on our own. We love to see stuff like this so to see mostly original was amazing. I have the imagination of how and what they did. My husband loves to see the craftsmanship and that sort of thing. I am not from the south so I still get confused on the who is who. Can't beat 10 and I really wanted to give a tip etc. We had a snooty girl with us. She wanted to do what she wanted to do when she wanted to do it. Please, a little self respect and of rare history, hundreds of years old, so the other 12 of us on the tour could hear and enjoy.

My great great great... (17 or so greats) grandfather was born into the Short family (My family and surname) his mother was Elizabeth Skipwith, who married William Short V and had several grandchildren including my grandfather. Elizabeth skipwiths grandfather was the person who owned this plantation, making me a grandson of Sir William Skipwith. I am really excited to see this place in real life like my ancestors did. I haven’t been here, but I’m leaving this review because my grandpa thinks it was really good, and he didn’t have a phone to review it, so I’ll review it for him.

Such a cool place! I've never seen a plantation with so much original furniture and outbuildings in tact! A must see! They need more publicity. The guides are so kind sms very knowledgeable. Tell your friends!

A mansion with a long history(built 1794),belonging to the baron Peyton Skipwith and Lady Jean Skipwith. It's about 300 years old, and it's amazing how well preserved it is. The furniture is made of hardwood and comes from England and maybe France. In order to protect the original furniture and wallpaper color does not fade, so can not take pictures. This is a picture I took from a flyer. They really need more publicity. If you get a chance to see this comment, definitely include it in your itinerary,It's a decision you will never regret. And Then I have to say that what I saw was definitely more impressive than what I saw in the pictures. Personally, I think it could be more luxurious than President Jefferson's Poplar forest.
