County B&B (Prince Edward County, Ontario)
Listing Details
613-707-6108
B&B rooms with double or single beds and large desks, all on the ground floor. You may or may not have to share 1.5 baths. Each room has a lovely view of bird feeders and surrounding woods. We are easy to find - in beautiful Prince Edward County a few minutes south of the Bay Bridge from Belleville. PEC is a large island south of Belleville and accessible from the 401 through Belleville or Trenton.
Rates: $80 single occupancy, $90 double. Internet and delicious cool well water are included. Laundry services are available for a fee.
We are in a large modern house on a couple of acres of grass, trees, woods and flowers. You can use your wireless internet anywhere on the property - go and sit under a tree if you wish. There is lots of parking for even large vehicles, and a locked shelter for bicycles.
There are woods all around us. While you are eating a leisurely and hearty breakfast you might see chipmunks and squirrels playing on the lawn, a deer passing through, maybe a fox. And lots of birds - doves, cowbirds, red-winged blackbirds, several species of woodpeckers large and small, orange-breasted Baltimore Orioles, yellow finches, maybe a bright red cardinal, blue jays, juncos, starlings and crows (we put a sign up but they keep coming back). Or a Phoebe. There is a rumour that someone saw an Indigo Bunting here years ago. Hummingbirds! Hawks soaring overhead. Some of these migrate south for the winter, passing through to check out our feeders, and some stay all year. There are giant wild turkeys, amazing to see sauntering through our back yard.
Birdwatchers or fishermen will find it especially pleasant. There is no pretension here, so we hope you will relax and enjoy our beautiful country setting. Get some firewood and have a campfire if you wish.
Breakfast... Let us know the night before approximately when you would like to have your breakfast. Sleep in if you want. We offer a full farmer's breakfast. Juice, coffee (including fresh decaf) or tea, bacon and eggs or pancakes. Cereal, fruit...
You will need a car to get here, or we can pick you up at the bus or train for a small extra charge. You can walk to an antique store or a fruit and veggie market in a few minutes, otherwise you will need a car or taxi to get around The County.
Non-smokers only, please - there is no smoking anywhere on the property. Please note that we have no television at this time, but you won't miss it if you watch the chipmunks instead.
Please email Sharon at thecounty@rogers.com or phone 613-707-6108 (24 hours).
