~EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE AT THE CLAIBORNE HOUSE~
The Claiborne House B&B is elegantly poised in the heart of Rocky Mount Virginia and within minutes to major attractions. Located in the rolling eastern foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The B&B is just 15 miles south of the Blue Ridge Parkway MP 121. The Blue Ridge Parkway is unabashedly America’s drive-through National Park, it is 469 miles long with zero stops. The Blue Ridge Parkway is “America’s Favorite Drive/Ride.”
We are at the starting point for The Crooked Road: Virginia’s Heritage Music Trail here in Rocky Mount. Booker T Washington National Monument is just a short drive from The Claiborne House. Confederate General Jubal A Early (General Lee's right-hand man) was from Franklin County Virginia, which is also well known as The Moonshine Capital of the world. Come out to Virginia and walk in the footsteps of history. The Movie "Lawless" was made about our Franklin County VA!

Rootstone is an example of some of the funky music you will find in the area. Toss a rock in any direction and hit a musician!

Six comfortable guest rooms to choose from, all with private baths, WIFI, Central A/C and Cable TV's. This is not your granny's house!
A hearty home-cooked breakfast and great coffee is a tradition at The Claiborne House. The second "B" in bed and breakfast is important.
