Our guests have full use of all of the house except the carriage house, basement and storage room on the 2nd floor.
Access to the deck with outdoor seating and BBQ is from the kitchen.

Canada Day Weekend

We rented this house as part of a family trip over the long weekend. The kitchen was very well stocked; the rooms were large and comfortable. It is close to everything in Picton and having access to Sandbanks was very helpful! The decor was lovely and thoughtful and it felt like being at a home away from home. The hosts were excellent communicators and very accommodating.

Family gathering in Picton

This historic home has been remodelled to make comfy accommodations for a large group. We especially appreciated the superior air conditioning, as we visited during a heat wave. The grassy yard made a fun play space for the adults and little ones alike.

Great location!

This guest house was perfect for our gathering of six adult women, with four having their own well-appointed bedrooms, and only two having to share. The kitchen was well equipped. The barn behind the house allowed us to lock our bikes at night. The side porch was perfect for breakfast and drinks, and restaurants a short walk away.
