About this property

Animal Lovers Dream! Barn Loft stay in Burlington complete with Highland Cows

Experience life on a tiny farm just outside the city! Guests describe our place as like staying in a petting zoo. All the animals are very friendly and come right up for love, scratches and especially apples! You will wake up to the sounds of chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, goats, rabbits, sheep, horses and cows. Staying in our barn loft is a true farm experience but with all the luxury of home and more. Guests are welcome to participate in the morning and evening feedings and a meet and greet with the animals. Our farm is conveniently situated midway between Niagra Falls and Toronto and is a perfect spot to relax in between exploring all that these regions have to offer. The Bruce trail and many other excellent hiking trails are at your doorstep during your stay. There are several nature sancutaries within walking distance and the Royal Botanical Gardens, the largest botanical garden in Canada and a national historic site, is just 4 km away.
The space
Completely private and detached 350 square foot loft apartment located on the upper level of our barn. The lower level of the barn houses the resident animals which are turned in at night to their stalls. The 6 acre property also has a main residence where the property owners live.
Guest access
For the safety of the animals that live at the farm and for the safety of the guests, we ask that guests do not open any cages, pens or gates besides the ones marked specifically in the check in details. At no time should the guests enter the gated pasture where the animals graze as some of the animals will bite or kick people they are unfamiliar with.

The animals that live at the farm become stressed and upset when other animals such as dogs come onto the property. For this reason we are not able to accept pets.
Other things to note
Please keep in mind when you are deciding to book with us that the apartment is located on the top level of a barn that is surrounded by the animals that live on the farm. You will be fully immersed in farm life and all that it entails upon entering and exiting the gated staircase that leads to the apartment. In rainy weather it can be muddy. Boots are recommended for spending time around the farm.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

great farm life experience

Great experience! If you love animals, you really won't regret coming here. We got to feed the calves in the morning, and play and pet all the animals. The loft itself is very cute and cozy, and the hosts were very nice:) It is also only an hour away from Niagara Falls, so it was perfect.

Spectacular!

The loft apartment was clean,well stocked and comfortable. Farm fresh eggs for breakfast were much appreciated . It was the perfect place to relax and reset. Watching all the farm animals was very entertaining. They all have their own personalities . Would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a laid back and peaceful getaway..yes, the roosters are vocal early in the morning...didnt mind at all

An absolutely stunning farm experience

The hosts were very accommodating! The loft is super cozy and excellently designed. Restaurants only 10-15 mins away. The animals were obviously the best part (for me anyways! Lol) Thank you so much for having us :) It was such an amazing way to spend my 30th birthday!

Absolutely AMAZING!!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for one night and it was even more amazing than we could have ever imagined!!! The apartment above the barn is beautiful, spotlessly clean, and so comfortable. We were able to help feed the animals which was so much fun! The owners were very kind and welcoming. We can’t wait to come back!!

Amazing getaway

A wonderful, relaxing experience - beautiful location with many friendly animals roaming around that you can help feed, thoughtful and responsive hosts that went the extra mile with fresh eggs and starting a campfire, a private, clean and cozy room. Keep in mind that you can hear the rooster very well from the bedroom at some points, even with noise cancellation. Overall though, we had a magical stay and highly recommend this place to anyone!

True rural oasis

On line information & photos were consistent with the reality findings. True enjoyment for 1 or 2 persons who want the farm animal sound experience but without AI technology equipment. And within a 15-20 drive to groceries, etc. Will be back!

Great time at the farm over the holidays!

I had an incredible stay over the holidays at the farm. After a very rough year, being around all the animals was just what my soul needed. Amber is a lovely and accommodating host, as is her partner Gord. I was able to visit with the animals as much as I wanted. My favourite part was feeding the Highland calf Figaro a bottle of warm milk every morning! I loved learning the animal's names and hearing the stories of how they ended up on the farm. The farm fresh eggs in my room was a very nice touch. I did not find staying in the loft over the barn noisy at all and I am a very light sleeper. Looking forward to coming back sometime to try out the dome they are now renting out.

Nice change of pace

Listing is accurate - we were on the go so only really there to sleep. Very clean and nice loft. Climate control works well. The noise machine does help remove a bit of the good mornings by the roosters and chores. If you arrive late the geese are a bit protective as you try to pass by. The entrance is through the animals. If you are afraid of farm animals this not the place for you. Lovely stay and nice attentive hosts.

An absolute must!

If you're looking to an alternative to the usual home away from home rental property, we'll look no further than this little gem! This cozy loft is on the second floor of a fully functioning barn with all the barnyard animals. Immediately when we got to the location we were surrounded by all these adorable little animals. We spent some time visiting the different pens, petting them, and even feeding them some apples. Our reservation and check-in process was super easy. Our host Amber was very communicative and had the loft all ready for us by the time we showed up. Highly recommend you check it out if you're looking for something different and super fun! 🤘👌👍

Unique, relaxing farm experience

We were met at the gate by very friendly goats, turkeys, pig (Winnie) and chickens before climbing to a clean, comfortable well-equipped loft, exactly as shown in photos. Breakfasts and barbecues were enjoyed on the raised deck overlooking the barnyard. Big thanks to Gord who took us around while he turned-out and fed the animals in the morning. We were amazed at the variety they keep on the farm, many of them rescued animals. Bottle-feeding the baby Highland cow was definitely a high point. After a heavy rainfall, we were pleased to find a path of fresh hay had been laid down for us. Bring boots with you if the weather is wet. Thank you Amber and Gord; we will definitely be returning.

About the host

Hosted by Amber Warren

Host profile image
My partner and I own and operate a small farm on the edge of the city. It is important for us to grow our own food in as natural a way possible for ourselves and our community. We are huge animal lovers and love sharing and teaching what we do.

What makes this property unique

A stay at our barn loft has been described as being like living inside a petting zoo! We practice natural holistic farming on a small scale using rotational and mob grazing where many species of farm animals share the same pastures. This helps maintain a lush grazing pasture and healthy happy animals. We provide our guests with a sample of fresh free run eggs right from the coop below the barn. Many of the animals that live at the farm are rescues or "retired" and are living their best life here on the farm.
