But it was absolutely worth it. The owner was incredibly friendly and took the time to talk with us. As fellow motorcycle riders, we even connected over his Harley, which made the visit feel that much more personal and enjoyable. We really liked the wine and ended up purchasing a few bottles, the Cabernet Sauvignon and La Rose, both of which were excellent. The winery itself is fairly new, but it clearly has great potential and is already off to a strong start. The tasting room is set in a converted barn and you can still see remnants of its past. It adds a lot of charm and character to the space, making it feel both comfortable and welcoming. While we didn't sit outside, the view from the property is nice and would make for a relaxing spot to enjoy a glass. Overall, I highly recommend stopping here. The wine is great and the atmosphere is warm and inviting..

Their vineyard varieties are still limited--cab sauv grapes to make cab sauv wine and rosé. They also offer wines from Forever Winery, which recently closed. We had a glass of cab sauv, and for a new winery, it was remarkably good. My husband also had a Merlot from Forever Winery, which was also well done. The location, while not the easiest drive (down a dirt road), pays off with a lovely view. The ambience was lovely, and the owner was quite friendly. I highly recommend it as a new place to try and for regular visits. If they keep on the same trajectory as their excellent start, they should become known as a place for good wine, good views, and good company in a relaxing environment. You will want to bring your own food, though, since food offerings are quite limited. I expect as they grow, that will expand, but in the meantime, bring a picnic basket and enjoy your visit.

I love being able to experience Virginia wines while living in a different state and I love having my membership benefits when I do visit the area. The staff at Sunset Hills vineyard has always been welcoming, knowledgeable and hospitable. In addition, they are great with managing my shipments and account from afar and they make it easy to customize a shipment if you prefer different wines than they are offering. Their food service is great for pairing, I absolutely love their ciabatta bread and warm cheese spread with honey. My favorite thing to do is stop in, taste what is new and share a bottle and some snacks with friends while enjoying the views. Whether I am enjoying live music inside in the winter months or sitting on the deck or outdoor covered area in the summer months, Sunstet Hills Vinyard is my happy place to unwind.

Its set up as a very low key operation- no mention of it on their website. There is a small shed with trays to bring to the field, and a basket for paying by the honor system- its CASH ONLY. The blueberry bushes are only a short walk from the parking area- and the bushes were loaded with berries. Most importantly, the berries are fantastic- grocery store berries aren't even close. I would love to see this place up its social media presence a little (like even a mention on their website maybe?), and offer a venmo or paypal option for payment. The berries are worth it.

Shhhh.... I have a secret for you Yelpers out there…read more Want to get away from the run of the mill? Need to relax, unwind and de-stress? Like Leesburg, and the area up near Purcellville? But not sure where to stay? Well, here is a hint... my wife, daughter and I visited Barbara the owner of Creek Crossing Farm at Chappelle Hill, and I promised I'd make a "5 Star" rating for her, Joel and her chickens. We arrived recently for a couple of nights stay, and Barbara and Tripper (her Jack Russel pup) met us at the drive to say hello and welcome us like family. She introduced us to the house- and what a house it is. Built in the late 1700's, this farmhouse has all the modern necessities - and we started to relax immediately. The photos and the entire house are just amazing. We took our meals in the kitchen, because it just felt like being a part of the family. Her son Joel stopped in about the time the tour ended, and offered to bring in our bags from the car - even though it was obvious that he had had a long, long day. We said we'd bring them in ourselves, and he smiled and nodded - and started talking about his day. See... You're immediately part of the family, and the stories will start to flow. You can't make this stuff up... its just the way it is from the moment you arrive... and stays that way until you leave. Life... and moments like this... are priceless. Then Barbara makes the breakfasts herself, from fresh eggs from the brood of chickens in her hen house. The meals are "all you can eat" - and the food is delicious and plentiful. All local foods too, from the bacon, to the ham, to the bread - to the fresh coffee cake Barbara made that morning. She'll even tell you about the foxes, deer, raccoons and hawks... all of which she has had to protect her farm from. The house grounds have a small fish pond, and lots of grassy room to run around in - which was great for our seventeen month old daughter. We sat out in the field one night and enjoyed a local bottle of wine, with some cheese - as the sun sat over the blueberry fields. Oh did that feel good... If you're really nice, Barbara will even show you the new Grand Piano that she just got... and she plays so well... you'll feel so good inside. And she never seems to slow down, and is always interested in making your stay a good one. And she knows the neighborhood, and all the good gossip too... and knows what to and what not to say. Price is very good, as are the location, the rooms, and the decor. Bottom Line: "ABOVE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." And tell Barbara that you saw the review on Yelp, so she can give you a proper welcome. "God bless you, Barbara... we had a great time! See you and Joel soon we hope!"

However the tasting room more than made up for it. Cozy, charming and good people watching. In the winter there appears to be cute little wood burning stove inside. I saw that they used Real Solo stoves burning actual wood. Not some sad propane fire pit -- actual crackling fires. That kind of detail tells you everything about how this place operates. I love a good camp fire! The wines were genuinely good, and the staff made the experience even better. Super helpful with recommendations and clearly know their stuff when it comes to guiding you through the selections. There is pizza. It's available, but it didn't really deliver on quality -- stick to what they do best, which is the wine. If you are not in the tasting room, you can bring your own food. We LOVED the cats that casually wandered (snuck) into the tasting room like they lived in the place. They were super friendly and would walk past. On a clear day I imagine the outdoor space with those views and a real wood fire is pretty unbeatable. We'll definitely be back when the weather cooperates.

The parts of the winery I did see were beautiful. The house served as a Civil War hospital, then a home and now winery since 2006. I didn't get a chance to view upstairs or out back because I spent my entire time there in the tasting room. I was told upstairs has some parlours with seating for a more private experience. The outside view is beautiful with multiple tables to sit and enjoy wine and live music on the weekends. Mary, a fellow educator, took excellent care of me when I arrived! She was so warm and friendly and did a great job of explaining all the wines and helping me find wines that fit my preference. I ended up joining their wine club and left with 8 bottles. I also got to meet Flurry one of the staff member's dog. Everyone was so friendly and I'm excited to return with some friends!

I love that there are several options for seating. Past reviews led me to believe it is all open air, but there is a small seating space inside the tasting barn where the bar is. Granted, it still has open airflow, but can be mostly closed in during inclement weather. There are also two lawns with a hard separation--one for families and an adults-only space, which seems like a good way to be inclusive of both families and adults who are tired of children running wild at wineries/breweries.
