Winchester is located at the northern tip of Virginia in the naturally beautiful and historic Shenandoah Valley. The area is known for its important role in the Civil War, as the home of Patsy Cline and the Apple Blossom Festival. There is much to do and see in Winchester and the surrounding area, including lots of hiking, antiquing, and historic exploring. You are close enough to Washington and Baltimore to explore the big cities and return to the house. There are many caverns in the area and Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive are just minutes away. You are a short drive away to many sights in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia and western Maryland.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Winchester, USA

Comments from Guests: Winchester was such a pleasant surprise. This city is remarkable in that all of the old homes survived the Civil War. It has a low-key lovely small town feeling. You can walk 2 blocks to the downtown which has a large pedestrian-only mall. The Peter Miller House has been renovated in such a way as to retain the very old flavor of Winchester homes but with all of the modern amenities you could want. A great kitchen, really nice fenced-in rear courtyard, 3 nice bedrooms, modern bathrooms and a lovely common room and dining room. There are nice shops and restaurants within walking distance plus tons of lovely very old Winchester houses to look at as you stroll around the neighborhood. Nearby attractions, include the excellent Museum of the Shenandoah, a winery, and nice hiking plus lots more all quite close by. We hope to return, thanks!

Guestbook Comment: Really enjoyed our stay -- Winchester was a delightful surprise! The house is great -- nice work! We'll be back.

We had a great time at this beautiful old house. So much room (we all had our favorite places to hide out in :) and every possible item provided making it a true home from home. This was a great base for day trips to the amazing caverns in the area and also for D.C. The homeowners went "above and beyond" to be friendly and helpful. Hope to come back someday and will definately reccommend to others!

This was my second stay at the Peter Miller House.
What a truly wonderful find! My friends and I
stayed there while attending a conference at the
University and we were the envy of our colleagues
who were staying in the dorms. Beautiful home,
perfectly furnished, and the outdoor patio is so
quaint and private. Everything you need is there.
The owners are friendly and gracious. Highly
recommended - you won't be disappointed.

We stayed for two weeks as we had lots of family in the area to visit. The house was perfect. It is elegantly furnished without being too stiff -- ideal for us with our 2 year old daughter. The fenced in back yard was also great.
Proximity to the downtown pedestrian mall is a plus. We loved the breakfast at Swirls and Sunday brunch at Village Square is excellent. Also, Violino's is worth the walk to the other end of the mall -- some of the finest Italian food you'll eat anywhere!!
It would be nice if house had wireless internet, but several cafes nearby have wireless.
