When Orient-Express Hotels purchased the 600-acre Keswick Estate six years ago, they knew that the property’s spectacular setting was a perfect complement to their uniquely distinctive portfolio of hotels, trains and cruises throughout the world. To realize the full potential of the Estate, Orient-Express brought their exceptionally high standards of excellence to the property while drawing on the best traditions of Virginia country life. 

The Estate is now a magnificent backdrop for Keswick Hall at Monticello, a 48 room country house hotel, Keswick Club, a private club featuring an 18-hole Arnold Palmer signature golf course, and an exclusive residential estate.

Come for a weekend...Stay for a lifetime.

Located just east of Charlottesville, the Estate’s glorious countryside of gently rolling hills, splendid foliage, and open meadows make Keswick the perfect setting for private and serene estate living.  The home sites themselves are generous, a minimum of two acres, some with tranquil lake views, others nestled in lovely, mature woodlands, and many bordering on the magnificent Arnold Palmer signature golf course.  

Each home site has its own special set of characteristics and charm, but all share in the peaceful, secure, and beautiful surroundings of the property’s rural environment.
