book club getaway

Review Submitted: January 18, 2012 Date of Stay: January 2012
Our book club (it's more about the wine, food and great bonding than our book) rented Thoroughfare farm for a January weekend. The property and house are incredible. The Blue Ridge mountains are really blue and the miniature donkeys like carrots, but not sugar cubes. The owners put a lot of care in offering the best of accomodations, the furniture and decorations are very tasteful and the great room with a large working fireplace was really great for the 12 of us. Through the years we have stayed in many grand homes, but this one has the best flow for large entertaining and offered the most amentities. The hot tub is located on the deck and has amazing vistas of the tranquil mountain views. Some of us went into Culpeper and discovered a quaint, historic town, while others did a wine tasting just down the road. This farm house is a gem!

I'm relaxed just thinking about it

Review Submitted: October 17, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
This was neither our first nor our last visit to Thoroughfare Farm. The well kept home with its many amenities makes you feel comfortable as soon as you enter. Surrounded by the natural beauty, this is a perfect place to reconnect with family and friends. Swimming, hiking, playing, reading, napping as the rain hits the tin roof, candle light dinners on the screened-in porch, sitting in the hot tub with a glass of wine under a sky where the Milky Way and a million stars provide your mood lighting, or turning off the lights and seeing what dark really looks like. The farm provides ample opportunities to unwind and recharge. This is an easy place to get to and a difficult place to leave.

Wonderful site for a family vacation

Review Submitted: August 17, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
We loved our week at Thoroughfare Farm. Our eight grandchildren loved the swimming pool and walking to the barn to gather delicious fresh eggs. Our children enjoyed the winery up the road and relaxing on the screened porch. The decorating is beautiful and the house has everything you could possibly need. I agree with 3 year old Ella that this should be Grandma and Grandpa's new house!

Wonderful Family Vacation

Review Submitted: August 16, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
I was looking for a house for my extended family and was so glad to find this one that slept 18. Our age range was 2 - 67 and everyone enjoyed themselves. The house was clean and cool and there was plenty of space to be together, or to go find a space to be alone for a while. The pool was the biggest attraction for the children and they spent hours there from early morning until after dark. We loved being able to go and gather eggs each day and the children enjoyed petting and feeding the animals. The beds were comfortable and it was nice that each couple (3) could have a queen size bed. The kitchen was a perfect gathering room and it was easy for 3 or 4 people to be in there doing different things.

We spent most of the time at the house in the pool but some of us enjoyed going into Culpeper for an afternoon of shopping, a trip down the road to Plow and Hearth and to Yoder's market, a day at Montpelier and a drive along Skyline drive. We saw deer playing at the edge of the property, and beautiful sunsets.

The owner was easy to contact and very easy to work with. My family was pleased with our choice. I would love to be able to visit again in the fall or winter.

I would highly recommend this vacation home.
