Welcome to the “old town cottage”

This bright and cheerful country cottage won’t disappoint!
It's 1820 origins are hardly noticeable as it was completely refurbished in 2012 with just about all new systems, updated finishes, and in most cases, even structural components. It features 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths. A well-appointed kitchen with a large common room for dining, lounging and watching T.V. It is approximately 1250 square feet with hardwood floors throughout. Upstairs you will find a peaceful Master retreat, with private on-suite bath which includes separate shower and even a claw foot tub!
The grounds are well appointed with Dogwood trees, English Boxwoods, Lamb’s Tongue, Hollies and Crepe Myrtle.
Old Town Warrenton is a very pleasant 3 block walk where you will find the historic court house, "Old Jail", and John Singleton Mosby's (The Gray Ghost) home/museum. There are 2 bakeries, 5 restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries, fair trade gift stores, and even a micro-brewery all within walking distance. Within driving distance there is an aquatic/recreational center for indoor swimming and exercising (with equipment and classes).
Beyond town are wonderful Virginia wineries, Skyline Drive and National Park, Civil War Battlefields, and even further east you will find all that the Nation's Capital has to offer (approx. 45 miles).
Dulles airport is a 50 minute drive.
Charlottesville is 1.5 hours away
During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from Liberty Heritage Society Museum. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and 2 bathrooms in the cottage.
  • Air-conditioned cottage with kitchen, washing machine and 2 bathrooms
  • Within a 10-minute walk of Liberty Heritage Society Museum and Old Jail Museum
Welcome to the “old town cottage” offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

Great spot!
I was in town for a 40th birthday party and the locations was great. 15 min walking distance to Old Town. Perfect for two parties with an upstairs bed/full bath and a downstairs bed/full bath. Also, the local egg and chicken sausages were a nice touch!

Perfectly IMPRESSIVE
This was my very first time ever staying at Vrbo or any type of home rental. From the host to the Vrbo contact information 1-800 number all was outstanding. I am very tech challenged and if I can do it anyone can!! This sweet cottage and location is definitely ABOVE the normal. It had all my favorite needs and privacy and I can be picky. Easy walk to historic Warrenton and on a lovely street. Sides in the back of a gorgeous historic home with an easy access driveway that is beautiful to cottage. Full kitchen, barbecue grill, washer and dryer, spacious 2bedrooms and a darling sunroom. TV and WiFi was easy access. My daughter, husband and 4 year old toddler, we had a wonderful visit together cooking great meals in the well provided kitchen. The host provided us a dozen eggs and the best breakfast sausage you will ever eat! Also coffee beans and granola were there!! A Keurig machine is also there so bring your favorite pods. Our experience there was perfect and I will definitely repeat my stay here. No hassle checking in or out. I would absolutely recommend stay here.

Easily Walk into Town
Lovely setting, very quiet, but close to downtown Warrenton. We were able to pleasantly walk the sidewalk the 3-4 blocks to the center of town.We enjoyed sitting outside on the lawn chairs in the shade to drink morning tea. Mike, the owner, came over to chat. The AC was great during a very hot spell in June. Upstairs bedroom was fairly large. The bathroom door there could use some adjustment to allow it to fully close and a night light would be helpful if you anticipate having to get up before dawn. The downstairs bathroom is near the opposite end of the cottage from the downstairs bedroom.

A home away from our home
I rented the cottage to serve as extra bedrooms for four members of our Belgian family who were here to join the Celebration of Life for my late husband. I was preoccupied with all of the preparations, so I never saw the cottage in person, but they said that it was easy to find, and that everything was very clean and available for their use. They enjoyed the eggs and sausage; however, the first day they weren’t aware of the sausage because they were expecting the hard dried type that they usually have as part of breakfast in Belgium! I know that they enjoyed the location being within walking distance of a couple bakeries,restaurants and a walking trail. I am hoping that they left everything in the order that you expected? If not, please let me know! Thank you for offering the cottage on VRBO.

Home away from home
We stayed here when in Warrenton to care for a loved one. It was the perfect location between the hospital and town in a lovely quiet neighborhood. House was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. Chase was wonderful to work with and Mike (the owner) was very welcoming. Not only were we given bread, eggs, sausage at the beginning of our stay, we found some beautiful daffodils on our doorstep during our stay. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Fantastic stay in Warrenton!
We did not expect such a nice place for the price within walking distance to Warrenton! Everything was wonderful and easy. Booking the cottage was simple, the hosts left all the makings for the most delicious breakfast, the cottage was much more spacious than we expected and we were able to go for long walks every day! It’s location was perfect! It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed and more! We will definitely be back:)

Absolutely Delightful!
Our group of two couples thoroughly enjoyed staying at this delightful cottage! It is bright, light, and airy inside with lovely, well-cared for outdoor space. After a busy day, the cottage was a welcome retreat. It is located in a quiet neighborhood and easily walkable to all the delights of Old Town Warrenton. Upon our arrival at the cottage, we found a dozen brown eggs and pork sage sausage patties from Warrenton’s Whiffletree Farm in the fridge and on the counter a loaf of delicious honey wheat bread and a bag of dark roast coffee beans (there is a coffee grinder at the cottage). Needless to say, we were more than happy to leave our box of cereal in the car and treat ourselves to two mornings of mouth-watering, locally produced treats. Thank you Chase for the goodies! At nighttime, everyone found the beds to be very comfortable, and we slept soundly. The cottage was immaculate and spacious for four people. We liked that one bedroom and full bath were on the first floor and the other bedroom and full bath were upstairs which gave everyone privacy. We were fortunate to be able to meet the homeowner of the property, Mike, when we arrived. He was gracious, friendly, interesting, and a pure delight! He rightly takes great pride in his property and his town, and we felt lucky to have had the opportunity to talk with him. All four of us highly recommend a stay at this property!

We enjoyed our long weekend stay at the property. We were able to walk to downtown Warrenton, what a great little town with history, restaurants and shops. The house was clean and well kept and Chase the property manager was easy to work with. We found fresh eggs and sausage in the refrigerator which was a very nice touch and a fresh loaf of bread. We would stay here again.

My second stay here, I was very impressed and pleased with my first stay here. My expectations for cleanliness are high, it’s a deal breaker where I choose to stay they deliver on that and much more. I’m relieved to have found this charming place to stay during my Va. visits.
