This newer house is fabulously located. A short stroll takes you to the famous Rathtrevor Beach and Park, the world renowned Grotto spa, and great restaurants. Many parks, family activities, and artists studios are nearby. The Sand Castle
Competition is a must see. Another type of beach may be found at one of the nearby golf courses.
A central location gives you many options for day trips.
Visit the "Goats on the Roof" farmers market in Coombs just 10 minutes away. Victoria, the capital of BC is 2 hours away. Mount Washington ski hill and mountain biking area, just 1 hour away. The not to be missed Tofino with it's magnificent "Long Beach" on the west side of the island is 2 1/2 hours away, or shop 'til you drop in Nanaimo, just 20 minutes away.
Relaxing in our tastefully decorated previous show home is definitely an option.
A livingroom with gas fireplace with a view of an old growth forest, covered deck with the same view, and a loft upstairs offer great places to curl up with a book and a glass of your favourite beverage to unwind and take yourself away.
Any way you look at it, this is a great place to stay.
