Family trip to the country
After having to cancel a reservation in what we found out was a sketchy area of Richmond we were able to easily book this lovely house in the country. Although there weren't any horses the area was lovely with lots of birds and a great diner in Goochland. Great stay for my sisters, mother and I to meet my new nephew from Richmond!

Comfortable home, glorious country setting, charming overall! We were a group of older siblings gathering to tell stories, enjoy meals together, and be in nature. We got it all, and we loved it~ The firepit and sunsets with horses in the fields were accompanied by good weather as well. All good!

Lovely spot in the country
We had three generations of one family staying in the house and it worked out great. There are four bedrooms plus two smaller beds for munchkins in the upstairs landing. Lots of space in a quiet and serene setting with a few horses in the pastures. Had everything we needed and enjoyed the eclectic farmhouse decorations and antiques. The sunroom in the warmer months would be lovely. Ellen was great, we’ll be back again.

Peace and Quiet on CloverHill Farm
Wonderful place with a great host! Our stay was so peaceful. We watched the moon rise and the sun set over the rolling acreage of CloverHill Farm daily. Our kids met the horses. The host, Ellen even helped with a little training for our pups.
The home was very clean and carried a sense of the farm’s history, yet the modern touches throughout made for a more than comfortable stay.
All in all, one of the most enjoyable stays we’ve had

Relaxing
We so enjoyed our stay. We were looking for a relaxing spot for Family to gather outside of Richmond. Everything we needed was there, communication was good. We loved the history displayed throughout the home. The house has a sweet, softly aged feel, yet the kitchen and baths have been nicely updated. Sitting in the sunroom watching the horses was very relaxing. The ride into Richmond was easy and beautiful.

Rescue and restoration
We stayed for just one night after running out of hope that our electricity/heat would eve be turned back on. Ellen was extremely kind and helpful in arranging the last minute stay. The home is quite cozy and very well-equipped. This would be an ideal spot for a family reunion or retreat. We arrived in the dark and woke up to beautiful views of the barns, horses and fields.
I highly recommend it if you are looking for a place to relax. There are lots of spots both indoors and out where people can either gather or seek some solitude. I would have given it 6 stars if I had been able!

Peaceful and lovely
We were a group of 6 family members between 4 years old all the way up to 71. Every single one of us loved this property. The house was immaculate, well laid out, and it was very interesting to read about the history of the property. We enjoyed coffee on the front patio and drinks on the back patio watching the sunset. It was so peaceful and quiet and seeing the horses grazing was lovely. The kids all had so much fun running around the yard, building a fort in the bushes, and playing in the sunroom. We loved our time at this property.

Clover Hill
The James was exactly as the pictures portray. It is a peaceful home in the country with several horses within view. The kitchen was well equipped as was the entire home. The bathrooms were fairly new with lots of hot water and great showers. It was a perfect gathering place for our family as we attended my moms memorial service in Bon Air.

The BEST country getaway!!
We had the privilege of staying at the James at clover hill while we were remodeling our kitchen! It has been such an amazing experience ! We have loved every minute! The dogs have enjoyed their jaunts on the beautiful property. Waking up to the horses practically in the back yard was such an extra special bonus! Springtime on the farm has been fantastic! Ellen was so responsive with any and all questions and really made this stay relaxing and so enjoyable! In fact, I will recommend to all my out of town guests for the future and would even love to come back to stay again! Even though I only live 30 min away! Lol. Thank you Ellen for making our time here so memorable!

Fantastic Country House Under the Stars
My daughter and I stayed at Ellen's house while in the area for a soccer tournament. It was perfect, clean, well-appointed like a home, on the edge of a large field under the stars. We actually caught the SpaceX launch in the sky on our way out on the last day. It was ideal for us. Tanglewood Ordinary was awesome fried chicken and mashed potatoes nearby.
Thanks, Ellen!
