George Washington Slept Here!

About Agnes von Stillfried

I was born in the rural town of Ostbevern, Germany. I followed my passion and was able to successfully earn my degree as a Master Floral Designer in Hamburg. I moved to the States in 1993 and have been living here in Virginia with my husband and two kids ever since. I absolutely love living out here in the country with all my horses where I'm surrounded by nothing but Mother Nature and other native wildlife. It's only out here where you'll find that the world moves just that bit slower.

What makes this Farmhouse unique

Feeling adventurous? You'll have full range of the property to walk, explore, canoe, fish and visit all of the animals. We offer horseback riding lessons for beginners and trail rides for the more experienced rider ($50). I also offer a floral design class from my workshop where I make and sell all of my wreaths on Etsy. But if you're just looking for some rest and relaxing, then I suggest lying out back under one of the oldest pecan trees still living in Virginia today while you peacefully sway side to side, a book in hand, wrapped inside one of our colorful hammocks; or, wait till just before the sun has set to pull up a seat and start a fire and watch as the horses stoically graze throughout the fields. Don't want to leave your furry friends behind? Don't worry; we have three sociable dogs and a few cats of our own so we get it. Pets can be considered for an additional fee, so please reach out to us before booking to confirm. Feel free to unload at the door, then please park next to the garage side facing the barn. Please let me know when you arrive to put the invasive WELCOME COMITY (DOGS) in the house.*And don't forget to bring your leashes :) *We also offer temporary boarding options for people traveling with horses (Daily: stall $30 / field $10)
