Farmhouse on Working Vineyard

Situated on the east side of the Blue Ridge, this renovated farmhouse in beautiful Nelson County is surrounded by 15 acres of vines and has stunning views of the mountains. The house has all the amenities you could wish for while keeping its charm. The farmhouse is a very private and idyllic residence. There is a front porch with a bench swing and a hammock, as well as a small flagstone patio with wrought iron furniture for your relaxation. The pool is around back and is fenced in. The large deck above the pool is excellent for basking in the sun or watching it set over the mountains. If you run out of wine, you can walk down to the winery's tasting room and stock up, listen to (occasional) live music, or enjoy a bottle on their patio for a change of pace. The beauty of Nelson County and the Cardinal Point Farmhouse will help make your stay one of the most relaxing you could ever imagine. **We do allow pets with an additional charge of $50/day. If you will be bringing your pet, please let us know and we will adjust the price accordingly (airbnb.com does not have an automatic fee to be added on when booking). All parts of the property are accessible EXCEPT THE BARN. This is a working vineyard, so there are tools, equipment and chemicals that are not appropriate for guest access. Someone should be available by phone or in person for any questions or problems you have. Our farmhouse is conveniently located on the same property as our winery(!): www.cardinalpointwinery.com. Also, within a few miles, there are three other wineries, three breweries, a distillery and a cidery. From May through October, nearby Nellysford hosts a phenomenal farmers' market. Charlottesville, with its vibrant arts and restaurant scene is 25 minutes away. On the other side of the Blue Ridge Mountains (just 15 minutes away), you can go to the movies, out to eat, grocery shop, etc in Waynesboro. But, honestly, there is a good chance you may not want to leave our farm at all. There is no public transportation in our area, but there are many services to take guests on winery and brewery tours. They are a great and worry-free way to sample what the area has to offer! As this is a working vineyard, occasionally there may be someone on the premises taking care of the grapes. We will be sure to let you know when someone will be on the property.
