Incredible property. If anything the listing understates the charm and beautiful setting of this historical estate. We spent a week at the estate as our home base for my daughter’s wedding in Middleburg. The grounds and garden were a photographers dream.Thanks for the overall experience at Little Oatlands.

Fantastic Home for a Holiday

My family and I had a wonderful stay for Thanksgiving. The house truly feels like a home and the property is stunning - so many beautiful walks to do straight out of your front door. Much of the furniture, including the mattresses, is old and not necessarily the most comfortable, but the rest makes up for it.

I am sorry that the studio bedroom was uncomfortable for you. Given the very warm fall weather that we had been having, the beds were still made up with summer-weight bedding, though down comforters are readily accessible, as is the thermostat. The house is an old farmhouse and has the charms of one as well, including antique furniture and old porcelain bathroom fixtures that may not be for everyone.

Pastoral getaway

During sweltering days in DC, we enjoyed serenity in the shade of Little Oatlands. Mornings enjoying coffee on the porch were one of our favorite moments as well as an afternoon swim. It was our second visit to this historic property and the magnificence of the surrounding land is truly unparalleled in this day and time. Prepare to wander.

Beautiful property

The property is quite lovely, surrounded by the rolling hills of western Virginia. The house was perfect, a lot of space to spread out if needed. We spent our evenings on the screened in back porch. The pool and gardens were an added bonus. Every evening the neighbor cows would graze along the fence line- just a lovely get away from the City!

Expansive and charming

This property was perfect for our family reunion, in conjunction with a wedding in Middleburg. The house was interestingly rambling, and had perfect spaces for everyone who came. The grounds, garden, and swimming pool were cherries on top! It was the perfect setting for a large gathering, with plenty of spaces for different activities and conversations. Such a unique property!

Perfect Family Vacation

Little Oatlands was the perfect spot for a family gathering/vacation. The pool and the garden kept the children who were with us (ages 5 and 2), entertained for hours. The "toy closet" has a generous supply of tennis balls, rackets, plastic baseball bats, and basketballs. The fire pit served us well for roasting marshmallows. The house was spotless upon our arrival. We highly recommend this spot and hope to return next year!

Beautiful and so much to do

We booked both houses for a family stay for a local wedding. I booked 3 days before and 3 days after thinking that we would explore the area's history. The estate offered so much for our family that we never left. The swimming pool, the english walking garden, the tennis/pickle ball court, the two porches kept us entertained and busy. It ended up being the perfect place for us all!

Historic stay in town for family wedding

The property was beautiful, beds very comfortable, house well appointed with everything you need. Three main bedrooms upstairs were very close and comfortable. Air conditioning for this area worked very well. The queen bedroom on main floor is associated with a different air zone and it never reached below 76 degrees. Back double bedroom is very far from the rest of the bedrooms and is not air conditioned at all and as we stayed during a hot stretch it was unusable. Pool was so nice and fun to have. The owner was in constant communication with everything we needed. If you are a history buff this is the place for you- very cool place

Thanks for the comments and glad you enjoyed your stay despite the issues with the AC. We are putting window units in the back bedrooms to compensate for the uneven quality of the central AC. It is an old and rambling house and getting central AC throughout has been a challenge. I appreciate your comments and hope to have the house temps more comfortable for future guests. Kim

Perfect Wedding Venue

Little Oatlands was the perfect place for our outdoor wedding and we’re very happy we chose it. If you are planning to do the same, and have family stay in the guest house for the weekend, read the contract *carefully*. We skimmed it and failed to realize that you’ll need to take all trash bags to the dumpster by the barn and strip all of the bed sheets and put them downstairs, etc…

Quirky place for a stay, outdoor space made the visit

We had a great time here, primarily due to the size of the rental and the ability to host our large group relatively (25 min) close to the events we were there for. The out door spaces such as the pool and the formal gardens are great. Having a tennis court and equipment was something we enjoyed tremendously. The house is lovely, but a bit careworn-- for instance one of the chairs on the screened porch is kind of worn through in the seat, and should be replaced/repaired. A bit of updating furniture could help with the value of the rental.

Beautiful place

The grounds are amazing, and the house has all the charm you could want. Very cozy and every or nearly every bedroom has an en suite, which is remarkable for a home of this age. We spent two long days by the pool and playing tennis, ending the days with a walk through the garden and marveling at the expansive views and chatting with the grazing cows as the sun set. We enjoyed every minute. There was a major storm headed to Leesburg on the eve of our check in and it was handled perfectly - checking on us, letting us know where candles were in case of power outage, and offering a rescheduling of our stay if needed. I have already recommended it to friends! Thanks for a great stay.
