About this vendor
Little Oatlands is an historic 180 acre estate located amidst the rolling fields and woodlands of the famed Virginia hunt country between Leesburg and Middleburg. It has been in the Williams family for four generations. Part of the Oatlands Historic District, it is adjacent to the 400 acre Oatlands Historic House and Gardens, owned by The National Trust for Historic Preservation. The oldest buildings on the property date back to the late 18th Century.
The property features overnight accommodations with a six-bedroom, five and a half bath manor house (the Manor House) equipped with central air, WiFi access and satellite TV; a three-bedroom, three bath guest house (the Cottage) with window unit air conditioning, WiFI access and satellite TV; a tennis court and swimming pool; extensively landscaped lawns and grounds; and an award-winning two-acre formal garden.
The property is situated at the top of a gentle rise, affording sweeping and beautiful views of the fields and pastures of Little Oatlands and the surrounding countryside. It is conveniently located near many of Loudoun County's well known wineries and the restaurants, shops and other amenities of the charming towns of Leesburg and Middleburg; a thirty minute drive to Dulles International Airport; and an hour's drive from Washington, D.C.
Weddings and receptions are held outdoors in our beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds, which provide an excellent setting for couples wishing to have an outdoor wedding in the Virginia countryside. We can make recommendations for wedding tent vendors and other vendors for your special event.
Ideal for a wedding weekend, Little Oatlands is a venue that also offers accomodations and so much more. The Washingtonian magazine online wedding edition recently (August 20, 2019) published an article about the wedding of my son Alex Williams and daughter in law Nell Frabotta at Little Oatlands on Labor Day weekend 2018, entitled: "A Countryside Wedding with the Perfect Balance of Laidback Elegance."

Our original venue fell through. My daughter had already hired a caterer, made a non-refundable deposit on a tent, and asked guests to save their wedding date. We contacted 31 potential venues in Northern Virginia and Little Oatlands was the only one who actually addressed our questions (instead of overselling us on their amenities). From ease of communication to seeing the beauty of the manor and grounds, we knew we had found the perfect place!
The historical tour of the 1800's manor and cottage was delightful. The verdant meadows and rolling hills were a feast to the eyes. It was easy to envision my daughter's dream of an outdoor wedding because we were surrounded by such loveliness. However, it was walking into the majestic garden that took our breath away. Standing under the canopy of trees, strolling between rows of beguiling flowers and statues, we knew we were on hallowed ground. You will be hard pressed to find a prettier sight... or a better venue. Fairy tales do happen at Little Oatlands.
