About this property

Gala House with views overlooking lakes and Vernon in North Okanagan

Gala House was the original house on the orchard and was completely renovated. The interior is fully modernized, open and spacious with gas fireplace and all the amenities. There is a large picture window off living room and french doors from the main floor master bedroom to a large deck with views of the valley & lakes.
From the back door there is a nice sized mud room with a washer/dryer set, lots of storage for summer fun items or ski's and snowboards in the winter. There is also a large bathroom, on the main floor with two sinks, large tub and separate shower along with a toilet behind closed doors. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms, a queen, double and single. There are individual thermostats in every room to control the temperature to your liking.

For groups needing an extra room for 2 with privacy, please ask us about our Hidden Rose suite next door.

The grounds around the house have several flower gardens, large Linden trees, a variety of fruit trees, veggie garden and herb spiral, all overlooking the valley and surrounding countryside. A tree'd path leads down to the apple orchard and pasture where a few sheep, some ducks and chickens hang out.

The Grey Canal trail is steps away from the front door leading along BX creek to the waterfall, or several kms along the Silver Star Foothills. We are close to downtown Vernon and 20 mins to Sovereign Lake Nordic Centre with Silver Star Resort just beyond. All in all, it is a quiet place to relax and enjoy the sunsets over the Okanagan hillsides.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Lovely stay at the Gala House

Stunning Property

This is probably the most beautiful property we've stayed at in BC. We got married this past weekend and this was the perfect home to prep for the occasion. The view from the property is stunningly beautiful and the pictures don't do it justice. I would recommend this home to anyone.

Relaxing weekend away

This home was the perfect venue for our girls weekend away. Large kitchen and table, nice big bedrooms, and big washroom too. Loved walking around and watching the animals. And the view off the deck is spectacular. Hosts are lovely and great at communication. Check in was easy.

Idyllic stay

Wonderful restored house with beautiful views, close to the town of Vernon, but in the country. We settled in the well-appointed home easily and found it quite comfortable for our stay. The beans and grinder and patio chairs were a great touch. Walking through the orchard and admiring the farm animals was the perfect send off. Thank you for a great stay.

About the host

Hosted by Patrick or Sean Ling-Allen

Host profile image
Patrick grew up in Vernon and moved back in 2015 from Toronto with Sean and their kids. We're here for our families and friends, skiing above the clouds and swimming in gorgeous warm lakes. We incorporate a permaculture approach in running the orchard and certified organic in 2020.

Our home is next door to the guest house and Sean runs Centred Pilates studio in a former packing house across the road, offering private/semi private, group classes, training workshops and wellness retreats.

Why they chose this property

To be home based with our kids, involving them in the property. The timing and situation in our lives was right to combine our interests of building community around food and stewarding a piece of land. Our time is focused on growing quality food while hopefully raising our kids to respect, care for and connect to this habitat. The North Okanagan is just right for apples, so we set out for an apple orchard and fell in love with a view as a magnificent bonus. We have the orchard, a pasture, 'alot' of garden located on a quiet, no thru gravel road, near 2 creeks, bordered by a trail, a view and a couple pastures. We're happy to be able to call this home.

What makes this property unique

Its quiet, located in a rural, natural setting, close to a city with all the amenities, surrounded by recreational and agri-tourism opportunities.
With Sean's studio next door, you can join a group pilates class or book a private/semi private session ahead of time for during your stay through Centred Pilates.
There are great biking or hiking options right from the house, warm lakes and beaches within 15 minutes in a few directions or winter sports 20 mins up the hill. Vernon is central to several loop tours such as a circuit of Okanagan Lake, to Revelstoke, Galena Bay, Nakusp, Fauquier back to Vernon, or to Kamloops, Shuswap, Sicamous back to Vernon. There are more!
