About this property

Aberfoyle - Private Country Retreat in Equestrian setting

'Aberfoyle' is located in the midst of North and South Carolina horse country at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This picturesque 1920s guest cottage features beautiful interior architectural detailing, fully equipped gourmet kitchen, pantry, washer/dryer and comfortable furnishings. The flexible floor plan of this inviting cottage allows for cozy accommodations for a couple or can be equally comfortable for a party of eight.

Tucked away in a beautiful garden-like setting within a private horse farm estate, Aberfoyle is perfectly situated to offer easy access to all the wonderful amenities of this area. Equestrians will enjoy the convenience of being just 4 miles from FENCE and only 15 minutes from TIEC. The charming towns of Landrum, Columbus and Tryon are minutes away and our adjacency to I-26 allows for quick trips to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville, Brevard, Cashiers, DuPont Forest and all the myriad attractions of this highly desirable area.

Centrally located only minutes to downtown Landrum and Tryon, Aberfoyle offers the perfect location for horse show exhibitors and other equestrian enthusiasts, as well as golfers, antique-rs, cyclists and leaf lookers. We're just 4 miles from FENCE Nature and Equestrian Center, 15 minutes from TIEC and only minutes from Hwy I-26.
This is a wonderful place to which to retreat and is also perfect for group retreats or meetings.

The house was lovely! It was well appointed and made for a very nice relaxing weekend. The host, Helen was fantastic, and the location is very beautiful and peaceful but yet close to good restaurants. I was there with my dad for two races over the weekend, it made for a very nice short holiday!
