About this property

Quaint Cottage with Majestic Mountain Views - Close to Parkway & Lynchburg

This 2 bedroom 1 bath cottage is located on one of Bedford's most beautiful and well known country roads, Fancy Farm Road. There are 3 houses within sight but not close enough to impede privacy as this cottage is located past a huge old lovely dairy barn, that is part of the property, and down a long gravel driveway - surrounded by woods and pasture.

If you enjoy sitting on the deck, overlooking the Blue Ridge mountains, watching the wildlife, listening to the birds, then our cottage may be just right for you. Additionally, we have 3 goats named Moonlight, Chipmunk and Monkey, as well as chickens that when laying, may just provide you with farm fresh eggs! We have 3 outdoor cats, who are our farm mousers, and may visit you on the back porch when you're there.

Our cottage is fully furnished and sleeps 4 people very comfortably. Bedroom 1 has a queen sized bed. Bedroom 2 has a full and in necessary, a twin trundle bed. The bathroom is located off Bedroom 1.

Kitchen amenities include a full sized refrigerator and electric range, dishes, pots and pans, silverware, small appliances, including a microwave and coffee pot. A washer/dryer is also included.

The living room has comfortable seating and a tv with digital antenna that offers 20 channels, DVD player and beautiful barn views. Unlimited wifi is available. Redbox is available at the Food Lion 5 minutes away and in addition, we have a varied supply of DVDs from which to choose.

Fresh bed linens and towels are also provided. The kitchen is stocked with dishes, pots/pans, coffee pot, toaster, and many of the conveniences of home.

The front porch has rocking chairs for enjoying that morning cup of coffee and the back deck has tables and chairs that overlook the Blue Ridge Mountains. This old cottage is located on what was once a thriving dairy farm and has been updated with central heat and air. It's possible that cows may be grazing in the fenced pasture behind the house.

Enjoy photography or taking great pictures? There's an old dairy barn on the property that would make an amazing backdrop for some wonderful family portraits!

The Peaks of Otter and beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains are 15 mins away where you can enjoy hiking or dining at the Lodge. A short 10 minute drive will take you into the historical town of Bedford, where there are retail establishments, such as Walmart, Food Lion, etc.
Bedford is the home to the National D-Day Memorial. Really great restaurants, such as Olde Liberty Station, Town Kitchen, Azul Mexican, and Bedford Social Club are among a few of the great restaurants within a 10 minute drive. There are also popular chains such as Ruby Tuesday, Applebees, Subway, McDonald's, and Wendy's.

Smith Mountain Lake and the SML State Park is a 30 minute drive where you can enjoy swimming, fishing and even bring your own boat for a day on the water. Lynchburg is 25 minutes away and Roanoke is only 45 minutes away.

Located along the banks of the James River, Lynchburg offers a variety of attractions including Thomas Jefferson's retreat called Poplar Forest, a revitalized downtown with fantastic restaurants and a variety of shops, along with a bustling Community Market on the weekends. Additionally, recreation offers tubing on the James River; biking and walking on the James River Heritage Trail; Amazement Square Museum for kids; the Old City Cemetery and Museum that is a Virginia Historic Landmark; and Liberty Mountain Snowflex Center Year for year round skiing, snowboarding and tubing, just to name a few.

Lynchburg is known for 3 colleges - Liberty University,
Randolph College, and Lynchburg College. Sweet Briar College is not far away in nearby Amherst County.

Whether you're a couple looking to get away from it all, or parents of 2 children looking to retreat to the mountains and stay on a farm for the weekend, we think you'll enjoy your stay at our cottage.

Please know that we are a smoke free property - both inside of the cottage and anywhere on the property. Additionally, we do not allow hunting or shooting (skeet, target, etc.) of any kind on our property.

Thank you for your consideration!

If you want a place to rejuvenate, get away, and enjoy the quiet...this is the place for you. The house is the perfect size with lots of outside space to enjoy. The mountain view is absolutely amazing and the goats are as friendly as can be. Everything was so perfect we did not want to leave. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Perfect place for a quiet get away...

We enjoyed everything about our stay. The hosts were wonderful. The location was perfect for a trip to the Peaks of Otter and the D Day Memorial. The views of the mountains and sunrise/sunset were amazing. I loved seeing the goats, chickens (thanks for the eggs) and the cows! The cottage was so cozy and felt like home. We'd love to come back for another visit.

Better than expected!

The cottage is so quaint and comfortable; the owners clearly anticipate all possible needs. So many seating options to enjoy the scenery, the mountains, and watch the oh so pretty hens and goats! Very close to the Peaks of Otter (a favorite place of ours), restaurants and other fun things to do. Will return!

We enjoyed our time here from start to finish. Loved the cottage and the amazingly gorgeous views. We enjoyed seeing the mountains and the nearby farm animals. Such a perfect fit for us as we visited Bedford. Our hosts were very welcoming and available. We also had the opportunity to see wildlife nearby.

Quiet Perfect

The cottage was so amazing and the views were awesome. Coming from a country farming area, it reminded us of home and was absolutely perfect for our stay! The farm animals were a plus as well as the farm fresh eggs waiting for us upon arrival. So convenient to all locations and just a short drive to Randolph College. 10/10 definitely recommend to anyone coming to the area and are planning on staying again when we return!

First, let me say the host is amazing! Secondly, there is no place I can think of that is more peaceful and overflowing with God’s beauty. The love and care put into this place is so evident. The cottage is comfortable, fully equipped and clean. We brought groceries and had everything we needed to prepare and enjoy several meals. There are multiple seating options set up for chatting, eating, sunset viewing etc. each with their own vibe. We will 100% be returning!
