Inspired by the beauty of rustic European farmhouses, this bright, spacious studio space has room to stretch & practice yoga in the lounge and a private deck to enjoy your morning coffee with views of the vineyard in the back. It’s within walking/biking distance to local wineries, restaurants and a grocery store, very close to hiking trails and on a popular cycling route. There are many delightful culinary options as well as some local highlights such as the Watering Can.
The space
The studio consists of two large rooms and a 3-piece bathroom in a converted attic space. The 50+ year old floorboards are painted white, as well as the walls and ceilings for a bright and airy feeling. Each room has a skylight and the main area has French doors, allowing plenty of natural light. There are sloped ceilings due to the pitch of the roof, however the main areas of the space are 7'6". You’ll have your own private sitting area on the deck as well as access to the fire pit in the yard. We love to landscape and maintain a beautiful property. Our home is surrounded by mature trees and backs onto a ravine with vineyards in behind. We do live on the main road in town so traffic can be busy during certain times of day but it's not heard inside. Just a short walk up the hill brings you to the Bruce Trail if you love to hike, we are also very close to Balls Falls.
Guest access
You will have the entire upper floor and balcony to yourselves with shared access to the hammock and fire pit in the yard. Firewood available for purchase on site. We do have cruiser-style bikes available for rent as well.
Other things to note
There is no stove or kitchen sink. Food can be kept cold in the mini fridge/freezer and heated in the microwave, there is a toaster and a small balcony-size Weber bbq upon request. There is a small sink and dishwashing station in the lounge room. Most of our guests take full advantage of the local culinary scene, we highly recommend Revalee for brunch.
The town of Lincoln does require us to charge a 4% MAT tax on each stay, this goes directly towards improving tourism within the area.
While we welcome children we do want you to be aware that there is a staircase between the two main rooms leading down to the main floor. There is no way to block off the stairs at the top. This could be dangerous to a little one who is not comfortable around stairs. The bedroom does have a door you can close and the sitting room has a baby gate installed in entrance. We also built a small rock climbing wall on the side of the deck for our children to use. There is an opening in the railing on the first landing.
On that note, we do have 5 children (aged 8-16) and you may hear chatter, play, etc. We do our best to be very quiet, especially in the morning.
Please be mindful of this when booking.
