What a warm and welcoming property. Excellent attention to detail. My bed was super comfortable. Two very comfortable sitting rooms. An older house with lots of character.

Thank you for being a wonderful guest and your wonderful review. Come again!
We stayed for a week during spring time, dogwoods bloomed and so was rhododendron and azelias, iy was a piece of heaven. It was nice and comfortable for the two of us. Old time charm and updated fitures that are a necessity. Neighborhood is super quite, which was important after a day of work. Allison was very helpful, always promptly answered any questionsthat we had. Snack bar items and everything that you might need for tea or coffee was also a nice bonus.

Thank you so much for your review and for being an amazing guest! We love how peaceful the area is too! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you again!
Absolutely adorable home in a nice safe neighborhood only minutes from downtown. Rode bikes to the access for the High Bridge Trail. Super clean and well stocked with anything you need.No detailed left unattended. Easy communication with Allison. Comfortable furniture and bedding, extra linens. Nice patio and cozy backyard with firepit and grill. We had a deer walk through the backyard one evening . The home is at the end of the street and private. The kitchen was fully stocked with all appliances and two coffee maker options. The home’s AC was cool and ready for our arrival. Met two neighbors who were super friendly. Excellent VRBO property!
We are from Northern VA and fell in love with the town. Shopping, dining, High Bridge Trail and the peacefulness of this historical, quiet town. We chose this part of Farmville for its location to town, corner wooded lot and quiet street.
Why they chose this property
Quiet residential street and close to downtown, restaurants, shops and Longwood.
