Charming Mountain Escape | Hot Tub & Scenic Views

Spacious 5BR Retreat with HOT TUB & Mountain Views
Clean, rustic, and well-appointed, Cheval Circle is a 5BR/3BA getaway in Virginia Wine Country. Just minutes from Nelson County’s top wineries, breweries, and the Blue Ridge Tunnel, it offers both convenience and serenity.

Enjoy mountain views, a private hot tub, and a peaceful horse farm across the meadow—the perfect escape for family and friends!


You'll be interacting via TEXT directly with the owners, but not in person unless needed.

The neighborhood is quiet and across from a local horse farm. 0.9 miles to Veritas, and ELEVEN wineries/breweries/distilleries within 5 miles! 15 mins to Humpback Rocks and Jack Albright Loop (plane crash site!). 1.5 miles to Afton Tunnel!

There are two keypad entry doors to the property.

Welcome to Cheval Circle—a charming getaway nestled in the heart of Afton, VA. The name "Cheval" comes from the French word for horse, inspired by Mimi’s beautiful nearby horses and the home where Scott’s family grew up. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by the breathtaking mountain views from the front porch—a perfect spot for your morning coffee or evening glass of wine.

For an unforgettable experience, check out our complimentary online guidebook, which includes details on how to book a horseback riding adventure!

Everything was great!
Beds are comfortable. Rooms are clean and space is great for a group. We had all kitchen items needed for Thanksgiving. Loved the horses next door.
