Welcome to Blandfield

Blandfield, located in Essex County, Virginia along the Rappahannock River, consists of approximately 4,000 acres, with 600 acres of pristine marsh and 700 acres of open farmland with the remainder in timberland and open pine stands. Since acquiring the estate in 1983, the Wheat family has been intent on improving the wildlife habitat, good stewardship of the land, and the restoration and reuse of the historical home.

Today, Blandfield stands as a model for preserving Virginia’s colonial past. You’ll find yourself in a place of rare beauty. Delight in the memories made here with family and friends.
