Words can barely do justice to the breathtaking oasis of serenity that is this home. As history lovers, my daughter, one of her closest friends and I were smitten from the moment we stepped on to the foyerâs gorgeous brick floor, original to this 1860s cottage. Picton is an important part of Upper Canadaâs history, with Loyalist roots dating back to the 1780s.This guesthouse has 3 comfy bedrooms plus a bed in an alcove with blue-and-white toile de jouy curtains that close for privacy, a spa-like bathroom plus another bathroom downstairs with laundry facilities, a stunning dining room with an ornate chandelier, and a luxury kitchen that would make Nigella Lawson smile.In the living room are tartan-covered armchairs, a white highboy dresser topped with a decorative pheasant, and a cream sofa and swivel armchairs (the swivel armchairs also feature on the front porch, facilitating easy conversation). Crucially, the guesthouse has air conditioningâessential during this summerâs brutal heat.Never will I forget lying on the chain-suspended porch swing with my daughter opposite in her armchair, the late Sunday afternoon sun dappled across the front yardâs hydrangea bushes and trellis of greenery, and soothing live music wafting from the eatery next door. Magic!I recommend this dream guesthouse unreservedly. A suggestion for light sleepers: pick the bedroom with green tartan wallpaper because it is furthest from the bells of the church down the street.
