Where the greens are greener

By Mary Gostelow

THIS MONTH: Monticello, Virginia

Where? Room 27 of Keswick Hall at Monticello, near Charlottesville, Virginia.

What? The headboard of your four-poster bed is made of gorgeous golden fabric pulled into the shape of a flower. Look east out of your window to a rolling golf course.

Why? Play the 18-hole Arnold Palmer course, and then invite the other three players for pre-ordered breakfast on your private balcony overlooking the greens.

The WOWfactor: Live the life of country gentlefolk, with fishing on the James and Moormans Rivers and horseback riding with the Keswick Hunt Club.
