Afton Mtn. Vineyards: Billon | 1 Bed, 1 Bath

This single-bedroom cottage is named for the Barrel Cooperage "Billon" (bee-yon).  We used these barrels most recently in our Sangiovese.  They offer a light touch of oak while keeping the fresh bright character of the grape.  You'll feel refreshed and bright too in this cottage below our beautiful grand weeping cherry, with the deck looking straight out over the wildflower meadow and into the mountains beyond.  Park-like views from the bedroom and bath, vineyard and mountain views from the deck and every other room in this cozy cottage.

Featuring a king-size bed, spacious tile bathroom, open plan living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. Freshly decorated with local art and contemporary furnishings, and all countertops of locally quarried soapstone.  Solar shades in the rooms with views and room-darkening shades in bedroom and bath.  Electric fireplace in the corner can warm you on a chilly night, or create that intimate ambience when you're ready to snuggle in for the evening.  650 private square feet with a deck overlooking the wildflower meadow.

Afton Mountain Vineyard's Tasting Pavilion is only open Thursday through Sunday.

No early check-in or late check-out permitted!

Wonderful Cottage and Setting
Weekend getaway in a beautiful setting. Cottage was as listed and placed in a beautiful setting overlooking the Afton Mountain Winery and surrounding mountains. Loved it and would definitely return.

Quiet and relaxing
While the weather wasn’t ideal, it was still a pleasant stay that was relaxing and quiet. The property has minimal parking for 4 cottages, which is a small issue if all the spaces are taken. The cottage is modern and comfortable however, it wasn’t as clean as I’d expect. There were lots of cobwebs and the bathroom cleanliness was questionable with a visibly dirty toilet and shower. It really seemed like they hadn’t been scrubbed in awhile. And while it may be a small complaint, the coffee maker in the cottage was beyond tragic. Because this is a rural area, there really isn’t anywhere to get coffee which is why making it at the property is important to us coffee drinkers. The coffeemaker was small and only made two cups. It was also dirty and kind of damaged. And lastly, someone in the past has brewed something in it that was flavored, and you can taste the residual flavor. This was particularly disappointing. Otherwise a nice, affordable, relaxing place to stay.

Quick Get Away
It was so much nicer then we expected. We booked on a whim to attend a wedding on a nearby vineyard. Already planning our next trip to rent out more properties in the area. Highly recommend. Only thing I'd add as a suggestion is better lighting on pathway to the rentals.

Stunning Property
This was an amazing property. We had a really nice time. We were able to bring our dog Nugget. The views and the winery were amazing. Checking into and out of the property was very easy and onsite. Directions on how to leave things was very to the point and easy. We absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay and would go again and recommend the property to others!

Peaceful and close to activities
Perfect getaway if you are looking for quiet, beautiful scenery and being close to Wintergreen, wineries and distilleries. Cabin is decorated nice and is clean. Loved the king bed and the spacious bathroom. Only regret was not exploring more of the vineyard…it was a cold and windy weekend.

Charlottesville Wedding Weekend
Very pleased with the Billon Cottage, which was both clean and comfortable. As a party of two, the cottage was roomy and could easily accommodate a family of four. We enjoyed the location - being right on the vineyard - and the view of the Blue Ridge from the deck. It's convenient to Charlottesville and surrounding attractions, and we highly recommend the cottages if considering a visit to Central Virginia.

Cute and convenient cottage
Husband and I arrived Friday afternoon. The cottage is cute and convenient to multiple wineries and Blue Mountain Brewery. We enjoyed our weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains! I appreciated the advertised amenities and the room darkening shades, especially in the bedroom. Husband particularly enjoyed the included hulu service. We had two issues during our stay: We had difficulty getting into the cottage both when we arrived and again the next day. The code keypad didn't work great and the lock was "sticky." When it didn't work on Saturday, we called Stay Charlottesville. They helped us get into the cottage but it delayed our dinner plans. The second issue is probably on us: We couldn't figure out the thermostat. We were uncomfortably warm at night. I would have appreciated directions in the welcome binder on how to change the thermostat. Something I recommend that Stay Charlottesville should consider is putting aluminum foil and cling wrap in the kitchen to supplement the items already in the kitchen.
