Salamander Resort & Spa opened in August 2013 in Middleburg, Virginia, at the heart of the horse and wine country long associated with Washington, D.C. Known for its fox hunts, lavish parties, elegant estates, and the equestrian lifestyle made famous by Jackie Kennedy, Middleburg dates from pre-Revolutionary times and boasts more than 145 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. The LEED-certified resort reflects the region’s rich legacy of outdoor pleasures on its 340 acres.
Indoor event spaces feature the Middleburg Ballroom and prefunction area, a junior salon, boardroom, two breakout rooms, a hospitality suite, and a private dining room. A Cooking Studio supports formal dining and group activities for up to 24 guests. Outdoor spaces include the Grand Lawn, stone and grass terrace overlooking the culinary and herb gardens, pool, and sports center. The Equestrian Center and Stallion Barn, adjacent to the Grand Lawn, present exceptional options for private group dinners—with or without the company of horses. Groups at leisure choose from programs that incorporate spa and wellness, falconry, wildlife and nature, a Green/Giveback program that maintains nature trails, plus wine tastings, dressage and polo exhibitions, horse training in “horse whisperer” style, or obstacle and zip line courses.
The resort’s traditionally inspired accommodations mirror the region’s finest private estates, while the signature restaurant, with its view of the resort’s Equestrian Center and distant mountains, upholds the Piedmont region traditions with its use of local, sustainable ingredients. The Living Room, Library, Wine Bar, and Billiard Room all open to stone patios and sweeping vistas of the Grand Lawn, woods, and countryside.

Beautiful property. Well laid out and tastefully designed. Gorgeous guest rooms and meeting space. Unique because of the horse stables. Plenty to do on property. We chose not to host our meeting there because our guests wanted to be in close proximity to shops and restaurants and this was a little removed.
Overall Rating: 4.0/5

Salamander is great new property in the northern Virginia area. The service is amazing and the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The meeting space does not have a lot of breakouts, but the meeting teams works to make the space work for your individual meeting needs.
