We hope to make your experience memorable!

This is a beautiful place to stay on Denman Island! It’s on a peaceful farm with chickens, an adorable dog, and bountiful gardens. The suite is lovely, with lots of space and a tall vaulted ceiling. There’s a well-equipped kitchenette with everything you need to prepare light meals. Brad and Heather are lovely hosts and really make you feel welcomed. They prepare the most delicious breakfasts each morning with as many local ingredients as possible, some even from the farm! The property is also well-located for exploring around the island. I would definitely stay again the next time I’m on Denman.

Lovely space and property, warm and welcoming hosts, phenomenal breakfasts. We were so pleased to experience peace and quiet here, and slept so well in the cozy, billowy bed. This was an off-season visit so we were lucky to see some snowfall, which was dreamy with the toasty woodstove going. We hope to come back one day.

I spent a beautiful weekend in Brad and Heather’s home. The house is in a great position to discover Boyle Park and its beautiful trails, Chrome Island view and Eagles Rock as well. The breakfasts were great and different day by day. They used their product and local product as well and Brad is a good cook. I did a “very local” experience thanks to the hosts, harvesting for a Winery of the Island and having a beautiful lunch with them and the people came to help. And the Hot Tub is quite something as well! What can I say? Bellissimo! Impagabile! Una vacanza stupenda. Grazie!!!

Matteo

This place feels like home; a wonderful couple with a beautiful property. The room was a quaint tiny home, with lots of lights, a fireplace to warm up, and even a piano! A very comfy place, with all amenities. Their wonderful dog Tilly is the perfect companion to go for a walk and explore around the property. Brad’s place is perfectly located, 20 minutes from the ferry from Buckley Bay and 10 minutes to Hornby. The breakfast in the morning is without a doubt, the best breakfast we had in years!!!! The tour of the garden is also a highlight; so many plants, a gardener’s dream. Highly, highly recommended.
