Amazing Home

If you want an experience that includes history immersion, this is the place to stay! Fraser was a delight to learn from about the region’s and his own family’s historical plethora of information. Bev was so nice and welcoming. The Bunn house offers plenty of room and comfort. Was an excellent experience for first time VRBO. Will definitely return! Thank-you for everything!

A little slice of heaven

I cannot rave about this property and the hosts enough. They went above and beyond to ensure a fantastic stay. The property is amazing, the house is a historical gem, and the hosts spoiled us with unexpected comforts. My only complaint is that we didn’t get to spend more time!

A very special place

The Thomas Bunn cottage is a special place, rich with local history and lush, green surroundings. Bev provides a very warm welcome, and the house is stocked with anything you may need. The house is updated with modern conveniences, so you can stay nice and cool after exploring the grounds on a hot day. I especially enjoyed the upstairs bathtub for a long soak and the detachable showerhead to wash your hair without needing to duck under the water. If you are looking for a unique experience and enjoy history, this is the place for you!

Peaceful getaway in Sellirk

We had a wonderful experience staying at Beverley and Fraser’s beautiful cottage. It was like stepping into the past in the most serene setting. Bev made sure we had lots of delicious breakfast food for our mornings. They went the extra mile to make sure our stay was comfortable and easy. They were excellent with communication and also gave us some wonderful history about the cottage. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend it to anyone.

A Wedding to Remember

My husband and I chose this beautiful Heritage Cottage for our Wedding and it did not disappoint. We were able to bring our puppy (a definite bonus) and found the relaxed atmosphere to be a pleasant change from other places we have rented in the past. The place is full of antiques including many books which we wish we’d had time to mull over but they will be waiting for us on our next trip. The original wood floors, phonographs (yes, we played some of the old thick records!), front porch with wood stove,(made taking pictures on a cold wedding day possible), and huge claw foot tub added to the ambiance and experience during our stay. Thank you Fraser for sharing some of your amazing property history with us. Beverley, we really appreciated the extra wedding breakfast treats you provided. It was a memorable long weekend/wedding day and we look forward to our next stay.

Exceeded our expectations

Bev and Frasier were lovely hosts. The house itself was brimming with culture and history... Like staying in an authentic period home with tons of incredible artifacts. It may even be the quintessential Manitoba historic accommodation experience, as I can't imagine anything else coming close. The house was bigger than we were expecting and had more modern amenities than I would have imagined. Very generous and thoughtful hosts... And we explored the sprawling extensive grounds... So much to see. What more could you really ask for!?

History and Alpacas

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Bunn house. Wandering through the historical artifacts and books was a pure delight! As well, we were lucky to watch the alpacas being shaved. Such a delightful mix of fun activities and interesting history! Hope to return soon!
