About this farm stay rental
A renovated 19th century gem, the Cardinal Point Farmhouse is located in Afton, VA, and has impressive and unimpeded views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This five bedroom historic farmhouse is located among the vineyards of Cardinal Point Winery and is conveniently located near several other wineries, breweries, a cidery and a distillery. Stunning views of the Blue Ridge mountains abound, from the house, and especially from the pool. Enjoy relaxing with a book on our screened side porch, on the front porch swing or in the hammock. We hope you'll find our family home a welcome retreat from your daily grind.
The house has five bedrooms, three full bathrooms and sleeps ten guests (plus two more at an additional cost of $75/person/night). A large, bright kitchen area filled with natural light, complete with a built-in bench along the wall, makes entertaining while cooking a breeze. The kitchen has custom cherry cabinets, butcher block countertops and is designed with the amateur chef in mind. There is a double sink, a gas stove, two ovens, dishwasher, side-by-side refrigerator with an ice and water dispenser, a wine refrigerator and a bar sink.

My friends and I had the BEST weekend staying at this lovely farmhouse. I couldn't have asked for a better bachelorette celebration! The pool is wonderful, and the view is just spectacular. I highly recommend renting a bus/van to explore all the wineries nearby! And, of course, don't forget to stop by Cardinal Point for some excellent wine. Can't wait to go back! :)

Best things about this house hands down were the views. There were multiple areas to sit & enjoy the Mountain View (pool, front porch, side Adirondack chairs). House was big and had more than enough supplies for my party! Very conveniently located for those who enjoy winery hopping. Only thing that we noticed was some of the bedrooms smelled like urine, and as a result, some of my group members chose to share rooms with others in non-smelly rooms; we had planned to each take a bedroom but that wasn’t the case. Overall we all had a great time at this house & it was perfect for our weekend festivities.

My husband and I and our two dogs had an amazing quick trip to the farmhouse and loved it so much we plan to make an annual trip. The pool was incredible and we used it every day. The views with the vineyard are beyond amazing. I couldn’t get over how gorgeous it was. I am a sucker for a farmhouse and fell in love with this house and the property. Tenny, the farm dog, came over and our dogs enjoyed playing with him. My only regret is we couldn’t stay longer. We also enjoyed wine and live music at their winery which was so much fun.we can’t wait to go back.

My family and I loved our time staying at the Farm House. It's a beautiful property, especially sitting in the backyard at sunset. The house was built in the late 19th century, but it so cozy and comfortable. The heating, air, plumbing, etc all worked great. One side note, there are only small travel size shampoo/conditioner/soaps, so be sure to bring your own if needed. Easy driving distances to many wineries and restaurants in Charlottesville. This is a great option for anyone looking for a weekend getaway in the country with close access to nearby towns and amenities. Would love to come back again!

The house was perfect for our group of 4 couples. It had everything we needed, and the location at Cardinal Point Winery is amazing. I expected the view to be good, but it was much better than advertised. You really feel like you are away from it all, even though there is a full winery, and the rest of Route 151 very close. We will be staying again next year.

We gather with friends every spring and fall at the farmhouse and we always have a wonderful time. The house fits our group perfectly and we love coming back each time. We always get a happy visit from Tenny the dog and Susan takes wonderful care of us. The sunset view is spectacular!

We stayed in this beautiful, old farmhouse for my son’s graduation from UVA. My only criteria was a place with 2 main floor beds and baths for my parents and mother in law. It’s got a lot of charm, any possible kitchen gadget you could want for, tons of nooks and crannies for privacy (note: if you are looking for an open floor plan, this is not your place). The grounds are beautiful with vineyards and the mountains in the distance. We were a bit off season for the pool, but it was well maintained. Rustic, charming, quirky. Great place to congregate with family.

This is definitely an older house but suited our needs just fine. It's such a cute and cozy place with plenty of parking when you have several couples meeting up. It's also a great location for exploring the mountain, breweries and wineries in the areas. The owner is very responsive and very nice!

There were 8 adults in our party. Plenty of room for everyone. The Farmhouse was very comfortable. Very close to other wineries.

There is something so special about staying at the Farmhouse! You cannot beat the views and charm of staying in this house. My big family and I had such a wonderful time here. We cooked several great meals in the fully stocked kitchen and enjoyed being able to walk to Cardinal Point. I cannot wait to come back in the future!

We are quickly becoming regulars. The farmhouse is charming, spacious, and comfortable. The vistas from the yard are stunning. The pool is a great bonus and the winery below the farmhouse is a great place to spend the afternoon. Perfect location. Other nearby wineries, breweries, distilleries, golf, tons of really cool stores. Just a great stay, as always.

The pictures of this property do not do it justice! It was so perfect - the pool, the setting, the accommodations. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place for our girls' weekend getaway. Thank you!

We were a group from charlottesville wanting to do a local getaway for a bachelorette. This place was so incredibly beautiful - the pictures do not do it justice. It was absolutely stunning and so charming and we felt like we were a million miles away instead of 30 minutes from home. We didn’t leave the house all weekend and had a great time enjoying the pools, the views and cooking.

Location, location, location!
Needless to say, the Mountain View’s are breathtaking! The location is beautiful, private, and refreshing! The home served as a gathering place with plenty of room for indoor/outdoor activities! Being able to jump in the pool to cool off and then running off to play outdoor games…perfect! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy our Virginia experience!

Beautiful Sunset Views
Nothing can beat the sunsets we enjoyed while staying at the Farm House. The pool was also a highlight as it was an easy activity for the kids on days we were just hanging out at the house. We met the farm dog, Tenny, who was full of energy! And what can be better than a 4 minute walk down the hill to the tasting room at Cardinal Point Vineyard!

Perfect Place to Gather
We had an absolute wonderful time! The house was perfect for us. House was cozy, comfortable, and clean. Kitchen was well stocked and we made full use of it. Sunsets into the Blue Ridge right outside the window were glorious. Susan and Tim were fantastic and we can't wait to come back!

Amazing getaway
The farmhouse was spacious and comfortable for our group of seven adults and 3 (very) little ones. Loved everything about our stay and hope to come back again! Such a beautiful and peaceful location to sip some wine and reunite with great friends.

What a way to spend celebrating 50 yrs!
My just parents had their 50th wedding anniversary and we decided to spend it together touring around some wineries for the weekend all together. We found this GEM of a house and it fit our needs perfectly. It has a large kitchen and dining room which was perfect for our cooking and entertaining too. I’d highly recommend staying here!

Wonderfully Relaxing... Great place to chill out and reconnect
We stayed for a local wedding and used the house as home base for the bridal party as well as family and friends to stop by. Susan was a great hostess, and answered all questions and provided great information. The house is laid out great so that if you have someone staying with you who finds stairs difficult, there are two first floor bedrooms, complete with bathrooms. All bedrooms are spacious and very comfortable. There are individual air units in each room so you can control the temperature as you see fit.
The pool area is GREAT... you are overlooking not just the vineyard, but the mountains. Such a lovely view. There is quite a bit of pool furniture... tables and chairs as well as loungers. And, so many pool toys! Everyone loved the lounge chairs for the water!
The kitchen as very well stocked. Not only with dinnerware, but any serving dish you may want to use!
I cannot say enough good things about this property, and Susan was great if we had any questions! Would recommend, and plan to come back with the family again!

Idyllic house and views!
The farmhouse is lovely. Clean, roomy, and the kitchen has everything you might need to make a perfect vacation meal. Susan is an excellent host, and made sure that everything was to our liking. Can't say enough good things about the house and it's surrounds. And the Cardinal Point wines are icing on the cake--be sure to take plenty home!

Beautiful
The farmhouse is set on a ridge above the winery and the view is nothing less than spectacular. The house itself is charming, and each of the 5 bedrooms is comfortable and a sufficient distance apart (the house is very quiet and restful). The kitchen in the farmhouse is open and perfect for socializing while you cook The farmhouse is also very close to any number of activities, other wineries, distilleries and beer joints, plus a lot of cool small towns. But at the end of your day, you can go back to the farm house, open up a couple of the bottles you purchased from the winery below you, and sit by the pool or in the backyard and take in the beauty.

Girls wine trip
The house was great. There are plenty of rooms and bathrooms. Cooking in the kitchen is a breeze as they have all the pots, pans, and cooking utensils supplied making it very easy. Going to the winery on site is makes it safe and fun to enjoy the local wine. I highly recommend and look forward to booking for another weekend!

Excellent Multi-Family Mountain Get Away
We had a wonderful weekend at this farmhouse nestled in a vineyard. The views were breathtaking and there was plenty of space to spread out. Cardinal Point Winery was a short walk down the hill and had excellent wines. There were a few other lovely family-friendly wineries with a ten minute drive. The property was very clean and had all the amenities that we needed. The property owner communicated very well and checked to see that we had every thing we needed. We highly recommend and would love to visit again.

Beautiful getaway
Absolutely thrilled we stayed here among the many choices we considered. It's just a very different, unique experience and great place to make enjoyable memories. Would love to come back during the summer months to use the pool. Everyone on our trip loved it and some friends have already planned to rebook it in spring. A+++
