The building that now hosts the Martha Washington Inn and Spa was originally constructed in 1832 as a private residence. General Francis Preston, Sarah Buchanan Preston, and their nine children lived in this brick mansion. In 1858, this family home entered a new chapter as a high-end educational establishment for young women, named Martha Washington College. This college closed in 1932, opening again in 1935 as a hotel. The United Company purchased this building in 1984 and renovated this Abingdon landmark, preserving and showcasing a great deal of its architectural features. The Camberley Collection took stewardship of this inn and spa in 1995, blending the classic elegance of this building with modern amenities and services. The comfort and convenience of all guests are important to this venue’s staff and thus this facility is equipped with wheelchair-accessible features and wireless internet.

The Martha was a beautiful place for our wedding. The staff was great to work with and arranged everything so wonderfully. The food was delicious too.
Having our wedding ceremony and reception at the Martha was so easy! Wendy was incredibly accommodating and the venue was so beautiful. Weather was perfect, grounds were gorgeous, and the food was excellent. We actually got several compliments that this food was the best food our friends have had at a wedding. The staff was so nice throughout the weekend; everyone knew who we were, so it almost felt like we were celebrities! It was perfect, can’t recommend them enough.
EVERYTHING! The customer service was the best I've ever seen from start to finish. The food was incredible. The staff was incredible. The ambiance of the historic Inn was amazing. It was worth far more than what we actually paid. It was everything I hoped for. The event planner Kelley Crewey is the best. I wouldn't have changed a thing. It was magical.
