Rustic-chic hotel with posh farm cottages, upscale dining, and a spa
Fantastic Dinner at Winvian Farm. Emily our Server might have been the best waitress I’ve ever had. Her service was impeccable. Each dish was so flavorful and fresh. We then walked the grounds and the beautiful gardens. 5 Star Experience!!
This is a fabulous facility. We did a couples massage first and then lunch in tavern. All was well until they allowed a couple to dine next to us with their dog. I know it’s 2026 and everyone is supposed to be able to do anything they want otherwise they might get offended but this is an ultra- high end restaurant charging appropriate prices I might add. They ought to check with the other guests as to whether or not they are comfortable with the large hairy dog fussing at the next table before charging them $300 for lunch. I was not. I think it’s rude. The dog stays outside. I would never in a million years have agreed to the dog being in the dining room. It’s ridiculous.
Celebrated our 10 year anniversary here. Romantic, serene, great food and spa. The cottages are perfect for an upscale getaway experience in the CT countryside.
What sets Winvian stratospheres apart from any resort in CT is its consistent and reliable culinary philosophy. Chef Chris Eddy insists that his team be deeply passionate about seed and soil quality, the art of growing, and the craft of preparing the freshest ingredients. You’ll may ask his culinary team to sign your treasured menu as a keepsake
An interesting experience, but not worth the money in my opinion. Might be exactly what some want, but wasn't for us. Make sure you don't book your stay during a corporate retreat going on at the same time. We booked our mini-moon and were the ONLY "leisure guests" on site. This made for a very isolated experience, which could be desired by some, but felt odd. When exploring the grounds, we would have to seek out employees or we would never see another person. The room was really "cool" but smelled musty with cobwebs in most corners, including the shower. The AC barely worked and we were sweating at night. We requested a fan which the staff happily provided. Plan to bring with you anything extra you want to do. The only thing there is to do, is sleep, gym and spa. The only food options for us there were the private chef who curated "tastings" at $400 a night. Don't get me wrong, the food was fantastic, but we did not want to spend $1,000 on two dinners, and would rather have the option to pick our meals. We felt obligated to agree to these meals since the chef was only on site to serve my wife and I. I can see the value in the idea of this place - very secluded cabins, very private, extremely expensive and lush, but we felt uncomfortable, out of our element, and slightly unwelcome. This was a huge splurge for us, if given the chance, wouldn't do it agian.
