About this property

Your Tranquil Getaway w/ a View Near Hiking

Ziehen Sie den Stecker heraus. Entspannen Sie sich. Aktualisierung. Das Sanctuary Farm & Retreat Center befindet sich am Fuße der berühmten Peaks of Otter in Bedford County und bietet auf einem 1,6 Hektar großen Grundstück Ruhe, eine herrliche Aussicht und ein gemütliches Bauernhaus, in dem Sie Ihre Seele baumeln lassen können.

Ganz gleich, ob Sie für Ihren Intensivkurs an der Liberty University einen einwöchigen Aufenthalt benötigen, ein Wochenende abseits des Lärms, um die Romantik wieder aufleben zu lassen, oder einen 48-stündigen Rückzugsort mit Lebenshilfe vor Ort, das Sanctuary kann Ihren Bedürfnissen gerecht werden.
Eine 500 Quadratmeter große Suite mit eigenem Eingang bietet Platz zum Ausbreiten, Atmen und Genießen der Schönheit der Landschaft. Sie ist jedoch nah genug an der Stadt, um Annehmlichkeiten zu bieten, und liegt nur einen kurzen Pendelweg von Lynchburg entfernt, dem städtischen Zentrum der Region.
Genießen Sie Sonnenuntergänge über den Peaks of Otter, spazieren Sie um den 2 Morgen großen Teich oder sitzen Sie im Pavillon und trinken Sie eine Tasse Kaffee oder Ihren Lieblingswein. Es verfügt über eine voll ausgestattete Wohnküche mit Metzgerblock, Herd, antikem Bauernspülbecken, Keurig-Kaffeemaschine, Mikrowelle und Kühlschrank. Zentrale Luft sorgt für Ihr Wohlbefinden im Winter oder Sommer. Eine wunderschön geflieste Dusche, ein Schlafzimmer mit Queensize-Bett und Kleiderschrank und ein Wohnzimmer mit Sofa und bequemem Stuhl bieten Ihnen alles, was Sie brauchen, um ein bisschen wegzukommen. In einem Pavillon mit herrlichem Blick können Sie im Freien speisen und die Natur einatmen und den Stress ausatmen.

Aktivitäten
Laufen, wandern und spielen
"Bei jedem Spaziergang mit der Natur bekommt man weit mehr, als er sucht." John Muir

Ganz gleich, ob Sie nur einen Spaziergang um den Teich oder die Schotterstraße machen oder nur 10 Minuten fahren, um die zahlreichen Wanderwege an den Peaks of Otter zu erkunden - The Sanctuary ist ein Traum für Wander- und Spaziergänger.

Eine fünfminütige Fahrt in die Stadt Bedford bietet Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für den antiken Liebhaber und das D-Day-Denkmal für Geschichtsinteressierte und Veteranen.

Denken, träumen und beten
Es gibt nichts Schöneres als einen Traum, um die Zukunft zu gestalten. Victor Hugo

Möchten Sie dem „Lärm“ Ihres Alltags entfliehen? Das Heiligtum bietet den Raum und die Gelassenheit, um zu denken, zu träumen, zu beten und zuzuhören. Schlafen Sie aus, machen Sie einen Spaziergang um das Anwesen, trinken Sie Wein an der Feuerstelle und lauschen Sie den Laubfröschen. Auch wenn Sie während Ihres gesamten Aufenthalts im Pyjama bleiben möchten, haben wir Bücher, Brettspiele und Einsamkeit für Sie.

Optional: Die Gastgeber können Ihnen jeden Tag eine inspirierende Notiz und Frage senden, die den Tisch für Sie zusammenstellt, um Ihr Denken zu maximieren und Ihren Verstand auf Möglichkeiten auszudehnen. ($ 10 extra pro Tag für Notizen und Fragen)

Erwägen und erstellen Sie mit einem zertifizierten Coach vor Ort
Was wir in den Boden der Kontemplation pflanzen, werden wir in der Ernte der Handlung ernten. Meister Eckhart

Ihr Gastgeber im Sanctuary ist ein zertifizierter Leadership & Life Purpose Coach und bereit, Sie zu treffen. Wenn Sie ein sicheres, nicht wertendes Umfeld schaffen, können Sie sich mit Christine in Verbindung setzen, um eine Vielzahl von Themen zu durchdenken und zu bearbeiten, darunter Berufung, Lebensziele, Führung, Verbindung zu Gott oder Wiederverbindung mit Gott oder Arbeitsprobleme, während Sie einen flotten Spaziergang durch die Stadt unternehmen Bauernhof oder einfach nur im Pavillon sitzen und die Wellen auf dem Teich oder die Majestät der Berge betrachten. Diese Erfahrung beinhaltet zwei Übernachtungen, zwei Coaching-Sitzungen und kontemplative Fragen, damit Sie mit Klarheit oder einem Plan, um im Leben zu gedeihen, gehen. (150 $ extra für einen Aufenthalt von zwei Nächten)

Our host, Christine, was wonderful and made us feel very welcome! Both the indoor space and the grounds were immaculate. We really appreciated the use of the super clean kitchen with beautiful mountain views out of the window! Doing dishes looking out of that window was a joy! The bedding was also really cozy and I could see Sharp Top and Flat Top from the bed! We also enjoyed walking around the grounds and along the pond as well as watching the sun set behind the mountains from the gazebo!

Amazing Peace

The Sanctuary was a beautiful, peaceful, and clean property. The thoughtful touches, the views, the comfortable rooms, and the welcoming environment made for a lovely retreat. We loved listening to the birds -30 different species captured by our Apps- made this a terrific place to stay.

Everything about Sanctuary Suite was perfect. Christine was a fabulous host and replied quickly to our questions. We like to check in, look around and then go out and do the tourist stuff. Once we checked in here though, we left briefly to visit the local grocery store to grab a few things so we could spend the evening sitting next to the fire pit. Thats where we sat all night taking in the sunset and glorious views. We only spent one evening here but will definitely be going back. It was so nice to get away from all of lifes hassels and just enjoy each others company.

About the host

Hosted by Christine Kennedy

Host profile image
My husband and I lead busy work lives and after a season of burn out for both of us, we embarked on the journey of learning self care and how to de-plug. This led to the purchase of this 1860's farmhouse in 2013 and we began the renovation process with the goal of creating a working farm and homestead but also a space to truly experience peace, rest and to host guests so that they can experience it as well.

Life is still busy but we've learned how to "create Sanctuary" in our own lives and love providing a space for others to feel "sanctuary" as well.

Why they chose this property

Sanctuary is ideal for you if you want to get away from the "noise of life" and experience tranquility and all that farm life has to offer yet be close enough to town to get provisions and explore all that charming small town life has to offer. Additionally, being just a short 10 minute drive from the Blue Ridge Parkway this property is close to some spectular hikes.
