About this property

Charming Cottage hosted by Heather

Clean, charmingly rustic, well-appointed and in the heart of Virginia Wine Country, "Cheval Circle" is just a short drive from many of Nelson County's most popular destinations, including dozens of wineries and breweries and the Afton Mountain Tunnel. Enjoy the beautiful mountain views and the quiet horse farm just across the meadow!

If you’re looking to accommodate a larger property, we have four other listings on this street.


You'll be interacting via TEXT directly with the owners, but not in person unless needed.
The neighborhood is quiet and across from a local horse farm. 0.9 miles to Veritas, and ELEVEN wineries/breweries/distilleries within 5 miles! 15 mins to Humpback Rocks and Jack Albright Loop (plane crash site!). 1.5 miles to Afton Tunnel!
There are two keypad entry doors to the property.
We named this property “Cheval Circle” after the French word for horse “cheval” and the house Scott’s family grew up in. We love Mimi’s horses nearby and the incredible mountain views from the front porch. Check out a way to ride those horses in our complimentary online guidebook we provide with your stay.

Just a few details you will want to know. We have carefully outfitted this house to accommodate a large group, with several separate seating areas. There’s also a dining room that can comfortably seat 10 people. The laundry room contains a high capacity washer and dryer that is removed from all the activity of the household. Also included are three smart TV’s, board games, ceiling fans, Keurig and regular coffee makers, stainless steel appliances, cooking basics, and modern farmhouse decor. Complimentary wifi, toiletries, hairdryer, ironing board, and central heating and air conditioning.

“I haven’t been everywhere, but it's on my list” - Susan Sontag


The property is easily accessible by car and contains five parking spaces.

Everything was great!
Beds are comfortable. Rooms are clean and space is great for a group. We had all kitchen items needed for Thanksgiving. Loved the horses next door.
