This was a very nice, quiet place to stay near Charlottesville. We had all the amenities we needed and a couple of extras that were really nice touches - small glasses of orange juice and some oatmeal for breakfast!
In the area to see family in Crozet and the cottage was the perfect place for us. The location is so peaceful and quiet. The host were excellent in communication and made us feel truly welcomed. We will stay again when we are back in the area.
Comfortable, clean, cozy cottage perfect for a getaway or parents visiting UVA student. As visiting parents ourselves, we enjoyed the beautiful countryside that is not too far away from campus. It was a great spot to relax and recharge.
The Plainfield Cottage is a perfect getaway. We came in for a graduation and were quite busy. However, each time I stepped into the cottage, it felt peaceful, bright and clean. A great retreat to unwind and relax at. Cathy was very attentive on any needs we needed, as there were few because it was well stocked.
The space is absolutely as advertised - it is clean, comfortable, utterly charming and has everything you could possibly need, and then some. Cathy and Kirk are wonderful hosts. I look forward to coming back and staying again sometime!
Comfy little spot just on the outskirts of Charlotte near wineries. Wonderful location and sweet cottagey feel. Highly recommend this for a little
get away. There is no full kitchen but that worked well for us as it had everything else we needed including snacks, tea and coffee. Host was very friendly and helpful with local food ideas.
My husband and I are relocating to Charlottesville. We stayed for a week while checking out houses and becoming more familiar with the area. The cottage is conveniently located between C'ville and Crozet, tastefully decorated and comfortable, with a kitchenette stocked with coffee, tea, milk, etc. Cathy greeted me on arrival and checked in occasionally to make sure all was well during our stay. Wonderful lodging, wonderful host.
Cottage was perfect for us. Quaint and quiet. Enjoyed it immensely. Had everything we needed. Very clean! Also great dinner/activity recommendations from host! Thank you!
My husband and I stayed for the weekend. The cottage was comfortable and very cute. We loved the location and surroundings. We were close to wineries and downtown Charlottesville but far enough away to enjoy a country setting. Our hosts" The Train Family " were very nice and helpful. Would highly recommend.
Cathy & Kirk's place was a gem to stay in for our last minute, long weekend get away! Everything we needed to get our day started, and return at night to rest our heads.
Located 15-30 minutes from everywhere we wanted to visit, away from all the hubbub of city or crowds, peace & quiet... Perfection!
We enjoyed our time here, easily recommend for a 1-2 person stay.
The Train family were great hosts. Cathy met us upon arrival and showed us the cottage. We also met Kirk, and thier daughter who provided us with restaurant suggestions. The cottage was cozy and had refreshments ready for us. We were close to Charlottesville and able to get to downtown and several wineries and distilleries easily. Overall it was a great stay and we appreciated the hospitality.
I met a large group of friends in the Crozet and Charlottesville areas for the weekend to celebrate our 40th birthdays, and of all the rentals we booked, this cottage truly stood out. Conveniently located just outside Crozet, I was easily able to get around to the places where all our activities were planned.One of the highlights was meeting the gracious proprietor, who was not only welcoming but also full of great local recommendations for places to eat, drink, and explore. Their hospitality really added a personal touch to a great trip.If you're looking for a peaceful, well-located, and maintained spot to stay while exploring the Crozet and Charlottesville areas, I can't recommend this cottage enough. I would absolutely love to stay here again in the future!
Great hostess, great location in the country yet near the university of Virginia and Monticello, etc. Very clean and nice. Hostess left juice in the mini fridge and a few small treats, nice touch. Only idea would be to only use full toiletries instead of partially used. Would go back there any time. And I’m very picky
