About this property

Nature Escape guesthouse, minutes from Ottawa, in heart of the Gatineau Park

Your accommodations are spacious, sparkling clean, private, and peaceful. An artsy home away from home, tucked in the forest with lovely wood, vaulted ceilings, original art, fine art prints and photography.

The house (adjacent to our house) has a private separate entrance, and is perfectly suitable for families. Entryway patio includes bbq & table, and a cedar sauna and cold shower! Located in a residential area (no parties), we have a 9pm municipal quiet hour.

The house includes five, (sleeping 12, very comfortably) private, locking bedrooms, a full kitchen, living room, dining room, library/chess area, various hang out nooks, 2.5 bathrooms, full laundry, covered patio, gardens, hammocks, swing, fire pit, barbecue and private entrance.

The gamesroom has a modern tv to connect Apple and Android devices, a pool table, darts and shuffle board.
Tons of storage for sports equipment, and we offer a ski wax room in the winter, and a bike storage/cleaning/tuning area and tools in the summer.

Chelsea Velo Nordic B&B is nestled within the Gatineau hills, walking distance from the heart of Old Chelsea village, including the Gatineau Park visitor centre, many wonderful cafés, restaurants and stores, and most importantly, the Nordik Spa. Plus we’re just a 10 minute drive to downtown Ottawa, and 10 minutes to the charming village of Wakefield. Our fantastic location allows for easy access to both trail and town experiences.

Suitable for families, teams, or groups.
Not suitable for house parties, we live next door, have neighbours, and the municipal outside quiet hour is 9pm.
