Hillbrook, A Country House Hotel in Charles Town
Picture a European style country house hotel cascading down a limestone ridge on fifteen levels, 2000 panes of glass flooding the interior with light. Imagine the rich patina of old wood, the gleam of polished brass, the deep jewel tones of oriental carpets. Imagine, too, Flemish oils, African masks, dramatic contemporary sculpture, and a library lined with books. Add the flicker of candles, the warmth of a fire. A loveseat. An intimate table for two. A quiet place to be alone together. Gardens bursting with color, a meandering stream, ducks on the pond, a hammock. The gold of Autumn. The beauty of a winter storm.
