This historic property, surrounded on three sides by a sprawling 177-acre calf pasture, ensures a serene escape where it's just you, the gentle mooing of cows, and the tranquil beauty of nature.

Beautiful home and surroundings. Lots of space for everyone to spread out. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need to cook. We enjoyed the fire pit and porches. The home is in a remote area, so planning ahead with groceries, etc. is recommended. Would definitely stay again!

We greatly enjoyed our five-night stay at Jump View Farms. Staying here was like going back in time with the very tastefully designed original farmhouse. The property is very comfortable and well-appointed with beautiful surrounding views. We especially enjoyed the cows surrounding the property! Watching them do their daily migration from one pasture to another was very entertaining, especially when they stopped to greet us at the outdoor fire pit. Deer and Turkeys were spotted daily as well. Although the house is a bit remote, the drive to and from is sheer beauty. We were able to enjoy many nearby activities such as hiking in the southern Shenandoah’s and the Blue Ridge Mountains, enjoying lunch in the nearby towns of Lexington and Staunton, and biking on the Chessie Trail near Lexington. Each day though, we looked forward to getting back to enjoy the farmhouse. In addition, Ian was very responsive to our needs. We definitely recommend this very unique and charming property.
