Beautiful Cottage on a Lavender Farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Create lasting memories with loved ones while enjoying our five-acre property and our LOVE Lavender Farm (which is in bloom at the end of June early July), our well well-appointed rooms, picturesque views of the mountains and our fabulous location.

As you drive through the iron gate, you will immediately catch a glimpse of the mountains through the trees. Pretty flowers are sprinkled throughout the garden of this magical refuge.

Inside the three bedroom/two bath cottage, the decor complements the lush acreage with shabby chic tones of sage, pink, and cream. French and English antiques and twinkly chandeliers adorn each room flowing seamlessly from the living room, though the dining room and full kitchen. The main floor also features a queen-sized bedroom and an adjacent marble bathroom with a tub/shower.

Fling open the sunroom doors onto the deck and enjoy the Blue Ridge Mountain view. Take advantage of the outdoor furnishings for a lovely outdoor meal. Be sure to toast the magnificent sunsets and on summer evenings watch the fireflies emerge and blend into the starry sky.

Upstairs, you’ll find two charming with king- and queen-sized beds. These two bedrooms share a marble bathroom, featuring a walk-in shower reminiscent of a luxury hotel.

Beautiful Location, Wonderful Host
The listing is exactly as pictured. It is such a whimsical and comfy place to stay! The mountains are visible from the back porch, so I would sit outside with some tea in the morning and enjoy the sunrise! The little details around the property make it so enchanting! The host was also amazing! I had a couple questions during my stay, and the host was quick to reply and very kind. Everything I could have needed was available from bug spray and cleaning supplies to board games and coffee. The welcome packet the host provided was immensely helpful!! It was very comforting to have this information provided for my trip! And I could tell the host takes the time to make sure the information is updated and accurate for each stay. This was such a wonderful place to stay!! I 100% recommend booking this charming cottage!!

Beautiful cottage
We stayed for a wedding nearby and we loved the house. The furniture and decor has been curated beautifully and the fairy theme was a magical touch, which our 2 yr old really enjoyed. Little Washington and Sperryville are idyllic little towns nearby and there is beautiful country all around. We enjoyed petting the horses next door and watching the fireflies in the evening. Would stay here again for sure.

Perfect in every way
This cottage was absolutely perfect! From the moment we walked through the door until we left, I felt like a fairy princess! It has everything we needed for a marvelous stay! There was much to explore around and in the cottage from hidden little gems to wildlife outside! I don’t want to spoil the little surprises for those that might be staying so I won’t tell all! You need not look any further for a beautiful stay if you are visiting the area! You won’t be disappointed😊

A fairy tale cottage
This cottage was so fun and very pretty. The moment we walked in I felt like I was walking into a French countryside cottage. It was so comfy looking and welcoming. Beautiful colors, gorgeous chandeliers, a wonderful back deck with a big table and six chairs, a small outdoor sofa, 2 grills, and lots of milling around space. I couldn't wait to unpack and sink into the shabby chic couch...which I did and it was fabulous. There are books throughout the house, lovely flower arrangements, lots of little knick knacks to pick up and wonder about and some lovely art on the walls. I made a point to sit in every chair in the place and wasn't disappointed by any. Our group of 4 had plenty of space to spread out into. 2 large bedrooms upstairs, one of which was a fairy garden in a bedroom...quite romantic. And another full bed and bath downstairs. The kitchen was well equipped and we found everything we needed to make a full meal. We used the gas grill and enjoyed a nice bottle of prosecco upon arrival. One of my favorite things about the cottage was that I found something new everyday. So many fairies and hidden treasures among the chandeliers and flowers, it was a little adventure to look for them each day. The ground are wonderful and my boyfriend and I made use of a large hammock under the trees. We saw a groundhog every day who obviously lived under the shed and so many different birds. There a short, pretty walk up to a winery at the top of the hill and my friends took two quite challenging hikes in the area while I tested out the furniture for napping and reading:-) All in all, it was a wonderful 3 nights and we would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fantasy experience with all the comforts, and more, of home.

Milestone birthday
Had a group in for nice meals at the typical places in Washington VA area. Cottage was one of four places we had guests use and it was a nice place for all the adult children to stay and hang together in the living room, dining room kitchen areas. They did not get to use the outdoor spaces due to the March snowfall!

Lovely Shenandoah Cottage Getaway
I can’t say enough good things about our stay at Lefay Cottage. This is the perfect location, with only a very short drive to wonderful restaurants, vineyards, and shops. Sally Anne is a true professional, passionate about her property, and passionate about providing the best possible stay for her guests. Of course, the proximity to Shenandoah Park and hiking trails makes for the perfect excursion, however the cottage itself and the property it sits on is oozing with charm!! It’s almost hard to want to leave. We will most certainly be back, but next time, maybe just my husband and I, and we’ll leave the kids at home.

Second time as good as the first!
As the subject line reads,… This was our second time and it was every bit as good as the first. We don’t at the Inn at Little Washington one night and enjoyed the local attractions on the other night. We also enjoyed the short walk up to the Little Washington winery! Sally Anne is a great communicator. I can also share from experience that the house is every bit as much fun and more in the warmer weather. I look forward to a return trip in the near future.

A little fairy cottage in the country
I had started planning my trip about 4 months ahead to go to Washington VA with some friends to try out the famous Inn. I live about 2 hours away so we had to stay. This place made the whole weekend even more perfect. Sally Ann greeted us at the house with a bottle of bubbly even though she had injured herself and had a hard time gettng around. She made sure everything was just perfect. The beds were very comfortable. The towels were super soft and abundant. We took multiple pictures of the "fairy room" and one of my girlfriends insisted on wearing a pair of wings almost the entire time in the house. It was also very nice to walk to the Little Washington winery which is one of my favorites. I was sent an informative email months before arrival so we were able to have massage therapists come to the house. If you want an unforgettable relaxing weekend in the beautiful Virginia countryside stay at LeFay and book a kitchen table at the Inn.

We had a lovely stay here! The owner greeted us on our arrival and showed us around the house and made sure we could connect to Wifi, etc. What I loved about this home were the small touches--sodas in the fridge, coffee with a Keurig machine, Molton Brown bath products in the showers, etc. We felt very at home!

Perfection!
We were celebrating a special occasion at the Inn at Little Washington over the weekend. Sally Anne was a pleasure to deal with - she sent an email with recommendations in the area and was there to greet us and orient us to the cottage upon our arrival. She has lovingly decorated this charming and beautiful home which is a magical venue. We enjoyed sitting on the deck with a glass of wine in the evening, breakfast in the kitchen, and just sitting on the bench on the property gazing at the mountains. It was very quiet - beds were comfortable - and it was complete with fine linens and toiletries. It is a short 5 minute drive to the Inn. We had an absolutely perfect weekend, and we're thinking of what future occasion we can celebrate here again in order to return.
