About this property
Feet from Canmore's Amenities.
This unit is decorated in a more traditional style reminiscent of the old Canadian Pacific hotels before they were modernized and brought into the 21s century. The solid wood Alder table and chairs reminds one of a 19th century Coaching Inn rather than a 21st century condo. An old fashioned tea trolly doubles as an occasional table to add a bit of old world charm to the living area. Some antique artwork graces the walls to give a feeling of a bygone era. The faux leather sofa in the living area would not be out of place in a Gentleman's club. The comfortable character feel of this unit will entice you to snuggle up in front of the gas fire with a good book.

About the area
Canmore
Located in Canmore, this condo is in the city centre and in the mountains. While the natural beauty of Banff National Park and Upper Hot Springs can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Banff Gondola.
Canmore Recreation Centre and Rocky Mountain Adaptive Sports Centre are also worth visiting. Take in the nearby slopes with cross-country skiing and snowboarding, or try out other outdoor activities such as sledging and ice skating.

About the host
Hosted by Dallas and Richard
Welcome to our home away from home. We’re your hosts, Dallas and Richard Colwell. We hope you enjoy your stay at as much as we’ve enjoyed the journey creating what we hope you will soon discover as your home away from home.
We had originally been approached by a vacation rental company to manage our condos, but after 10 months without a single booking we had to step in and start managing our condos ourselves. This is how Rentalsintherockies was born. Necessity, being the mother of invention, rather than us feeling we could easily start a vacation rental company. Now after 15 years we have met some great families and groups of friends who stay with us regularly, but there is still plenty to learn.
You will witness Dallas’s flair for design as she has personalised each of our suites to reflect a calm and restful environment for you. As a family owned business, we have taken extra care to make sure you have everything you need when you arrive onsite from towels to teabags, there is even a sample of some local chocolate. We recommend visiting Le chocolatier at 121, 701 Benchlands Trail, Canmore for some great gifts to take home if they make it that far! All you need to do is come and enjoy. As well as being a designer, Dallas is an actress, playing small parts in hundreds of movies and British TV shows, from the first “Star Wars” movie to the hit Netflix show “The Crown” and “Downton Abbey”. Some of Dallas’s photos and memorabilia are on display in unit 407.
I am a entertainer and a qualified piano technician. I always joke and say I am the only performer to have toured in secrecy! I play keyboards and sing and according to Dallas, I am funny. Maybe not always intentionally! I am also our family’s wannabe Canadian. In all the times I have traveled to Canada there isn’t one occasion when I haven’t looked forward to the visit. Although I have visited many provinces, being able to visit a year round destination, like Canmore, is great for us when planing a tri

Why they chose this property
Now, you may be wondering why two people who live in the UK decided upon the beautiful town of Canmore in the Canadian Rockies, to be our home away from home. Although born in London, England, Dallas has always had a strong Canadian connection. Dallas spent many fond childhood years on the Canadian Prairies. Her father John was a Canadian soldier during WWII, and he met her mother, Kathleen, one rainy evening at a dance hall while he was serving at the Canadian Embassy in Trafalgar Square, London. After a whirlwind war-bride romance, and shortly prior to his deployment to France they were married. After the war John, his bride Kathleen, Dallas and her brother Terry moved back to his home town of Beausejour, deep in the Canadian Prairies. When Dallas was a teenager she decided to return to her home away from home, England. Our son Adam, who thanks to his Grandfather’s influence currently serves with the Royal Canadian Air Force and has maintained our strong connection with Canada. We first visited the Canadian Rockies when Adam was posted to Edmonton in 1999. We stayed with friends and decided to explore the area. It was then when we realised how beautiful Canmore is and how much it has to offer. Its proximity to not only Alberta’s major cities and airports, but also to Banff and the incredible Canadian Rockies make it an ideal destination. It was love at first sight.
What makes this property unique
Located downtown and close to all amenities, shops, art galleries, supermarkets. Bike rentals just below the condo and a very short walk the the trial heads in and around Canmore. From a short walk along Policemans Creek to grab a coffee to stretching your legs on some of the mountain trails. There is something for guests of all abilities.
