Located on one of the oldest Virginia Farm Winery properties. Fernando's is a small two bedroom home. Two story chalet-style home with a deck that has great sunsets. Downstairs has a full kitchen, dining room, living room, and bathroom. Upstairs is two loft type bedrooms, one queen bed, one full bed. Deck has dining area and charcoal grill (charcoal and starter fluid provided). Bed linens and towels provided. Storage/laundry room available for long term rentals. We are very flexible with check-in and check-out times. Just ask. We have 6 wineries and 1 cider works within 10 miles.. We are 17 miles from Scott Stadium, Charlottesville and UVA. We are between Gordonsville and Ruckersville. We are 12 miles from Montpelier (James Madison's Home).
My husband, Lee, and I started Burnley Vineyards and were married in 1985. We are both from military families and met at Virginia Tech. We live on the property as do Lee's parents, CJ and Patt.
Fernando's is a lovely cottage that was built as an artist's retreat. It is light, airy, and roomy. Designed and built by Uncle Scottie, who was a linguist with the US Air Force and an artist at heart. This a lovely location in central Virginia between the Southwest Mountains and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but close to Gordonsville, Ruckersville, Orange and Charlottesville,
Fernando's is easy to relax in and the view from the deck is wonderful. A charcoal grill is available for meals and many enjoy a glass of wine, craft beer and just enjoy the sunset.
Quiet, a great place to get away to with wineries close by.
An absolutely lovely cottage, location and welcome from the owner. We loved how bright the cottage is without curtains or blinds as it was perfect to wake up and enjoy the beautiful sunrise and views but take an eye mask if that would bother you. Only drawback is that the bedrooms are on a mezzanine level (not fully closed rooms with doors), but they are very comfortable. Altogether a great place to stay.
Nice and clean chalet. Enjoyed the desert wines
We loved this charming cabin nestled in the woods within the Burnley Vineyard. Its small appearance is deceptive as you enter with cathedral ceilings and a completely open floorplan. In addition, the bathroom is very roomy which is a nice feature. The cabin was immaculate and the fully stocked kitchen/bath plus owner-provided amenities helped to make our stay very comfortable. The owner was extremely kind and helpful - greeting us when we first arrived and letting us know about the cabin and also the gated entrance (which made us feel very secure at night knowing strangers could not enter the property). We had some local relatives visit for a potluck during the day and the coziness of the cabin and the wall to wall carpeting allowed for kid-play and card games on the floor for hours of fun and sharing. In addition, and an added bonus, we enjoyed wine tasting at the vineyard and liked it so much that many bottles of wine were purchased. We will definitely come back to Fernando's Hideaway.
The guest cottage was ideal for our small family to gather for Thanksgiving. There was plenty of room, it was very clean and well equipped. We appreciated the warm and caring welcome from Dawn. We're thinking of trying to return for a few days between Christmas and New Year's Eve for our family gift exchange. We all were extremely happy there. Thanks Dawn!
We have used VRBO for about 10 years. This was one of the best rentals. We were in VA for a family wedding. It was a beautiful place and owners were the best. We plan on returning again.
