Servants' Cottage on 600 Acre Working Horse/Cattle Estate

The foot-wide, hand-sawn boards that make up the ceiling reveal this cottage's original time of construction (1856) and its original purpose (housing for house servants of the Manor). Renovated in 2012, it now boasts a modern full kitchen and bath, split-system heat pump, and charming furnishings selected by our professional interior designer. Best of all, the cottage is on our 600 acre horse and cattle farm, where you have beautiful views in all directions, no sound of traffic, endless woodland trails, and quick and easy access to all the attractions of the Charlottesville area. Plus, it has a huge covered patio on the back side, with ceiling fans, lights, a gas grill, very comfortable furniture and views of several of our horse paddocks.

The Servants' Cottage is ideal for couples or families with a few small children (who can use the queen-sized sofa bed) or even for two couples who do not need privacy (the sofa bed is at the opposite end of the room from the queen-sized bed).

Our guests are always thrilled by the opportunity to enjoy such a large and beautiful pastoral setting. Our entry road is almost a mile long, and you pass ponds, cattle pastures and through cedar-lined sections. At the top of the hill, you find our farm complex, with the Manor House (with this Servants' Cottage snuggled in behind), our bell-roofed barn (former dairy barn), our 1856 bank barn, and other farm buildings. The Pond House and the Milker's Cottage are also within view, as is the training ring for our stables. There is a wonderful fishing pond full of bass and bream, and we supply the fishing equipment. And there are miles and miles of woodland trails, two impressive rope swings, horseshoe pits, views of the mountains, ancient boxwoods, and horses and cows to watch. Our wild residents include geese, turkeys, deer, fox, badgers, racoons, coyotes (sadly), thousands of frogs, and the occasional snake, skunk. and field mouse.

Bring your bathing suits to enjoy our swimming hole in the summer and the hot tub at our Party Patio during cooler weather (You need to reserve your time at the Party Patio by contacting the owner. 90 minutes available for each day you stay, first come-first served.).

So come enjoy the farm, and create a memory that will last forever.

My 13-year-old son and I just went up for one overnight to get away and hang out on the farm. It was so relaxing and the horses were happy for scratches and apples. The grounds were stunning to explore and the fire pit was perfect for the night. The hostess was very responsive and it was a wonderful peaceful stay. We also went and took a trail ride at Oakland Heights farm down the road and highly recommend them!

Great time at a great place

We stayed for 3 nights and had a wonderful time. We felt the freedom to walk among the vast farm and experience a number of beautiful animals all while getting waves from workers that passed by. We enjoyed this experience while only being a little more than an hour away from our home. Highly recommended by us.

Rustic cottage with lots of character

We really enjoyed our stay in the Servant's Cottage. The location was great and the horses were so much fun to visit with! The cottage was comfortable and clean, but fairly basic. We had everything we needed for a two night stay, but a few more coffee mugs, some updated linens, and a few extra blankets and towels would be a helpful addition.

Quiet winter getaway

A clean and comfortable cottage in a lovely setting -- we enjoyed meeting the horses and dogs! The "game barn" was not what my daughter had hoped: just a few beat-up game tables covered with dead flies. Overall we enjoyed the stay.
