Afton, Virginia
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.

Off the kitchen area, our comfortable living area has a full sofa and a love seat. A nice wall-mounted 43" Smart LED HDTV and DVD player will make relaxing easy. Wifi is available through Dish Network satellite service.
If you are more in the mood to unwind and enjoy views of the vineyard and mountains from the indoors, you can sit in our glassed-in side porch. Wicker furniture affords comfort as you raise a glass of wine to the spectacular Blue Ridge.
Dining areas include a breakfast nook right off the side entrance and a formal dining room off the kitchen. The breakfast nook table seats four but has a leaf that can be added so that six may use it. The formal dining room table seats six with a leaf increasing seating to ten people.

If you are looking to take advantage of more shade, the front porch swing and two rocking chairs will suit nicely. There is also a small garden patio off the front entrance.
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!
Great weekend. The property is fantastic. The view majestic.
The property is gorgeous and the owners are very kind! Lovely pool and home! Wonderful weekend.
Awesome stay! Great location, kind hosts, perfect summer weekend for large group
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!
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.
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!
Hurricane Ian tried to ruin our Fall visit with rain but we still had a blast just hanging around the house and playing games. On the last might, we were treated to a beautiful, dramatic sunset to the west of the house and a full rainbow to the east. Views from the house are so wonderful and everything you need for a nice visit is in the house.
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.
We absolutely fell in love with this Farmhouse, the views are gorgeous. It was perfect for 10 ladies with lots of food!! We spent most of the time at the pool.. we are now planning an annual trip!!!
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.
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!
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!
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!
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.
