We travel often and have stayed at many Relais and Chateau properties. When we made the reservation at the Winvian we wondered if we'd be subject to the same attitudinal issues that we've experienced at other R and C properties. Far from it! The staff at the Winvian were wonderful!! For example, they waited outside for us upon arrival and... More

just a couple of hours outside the Big apple(NYC), is this beautiful place. the cottages are in themselves an experience and the service is impeccable. room service is prompt and the food is always fresh and hot. if the weather is nice strolling around the property and riding the free bicycles provided is a treat. the restaurant has a fixed...

What a wonderful place to have a romantic weekend getaway, eclectic cottages, beautiful property with plenty of activities. We spent 3 nights in the Woodlands cottage which was remarkable.

There's no doubt that the setting and grounds are gorgeous. We stayed in Library - it was a cool night so we used the magnificent fireplace. It is so comfy and cozy. Fabulous shower. No question the cabins are fun - we have also stayed at Pitcher Inn a couple of times (same ownership) and Winvian is Pitcher on triple... More

It is a wonderful place for a getaway. There are 20 Individual cottages with each cottage having a theme.The restaurant dinners were very delicious. The Spa has many amenities and a great place to unwind. The Staff is very helpful and attentive.

We stayed in the Secret Society cottage. I thought it was really well done, though it is among the smallest (and least expensive) of the cottages. The double-height living area (small but comfortable for 2) gets light from doors leading to the back porch, from the tiny clearstory windows, and, of course, from the peaked glass ceiling that is the...

what a unique experience the cottages are very special and all so unique. the farm to table food delicious and we definitely left heavier than when we arrived. The service was somewhat lacking for us and the cleaning staff barged in without knocking asking for a snack in the afternoon seemed to be a major problem and that was all... More
