About this property

Peaceful Retreat on Horse Farm that welcomes dogs!

We are 1 hour north of Toronto near Palgrave, Hockley Valley, Tottenham, Orangeville & Alliston Ontario. We are close to ski hills, many quaint villages, and 45 minutes to Wasaga Beach on Georgian Bay.

Enjoy the sounds of nature and allow your stress to drain away as you relax and take in the scenery on this private horse farm. Our farm has views of the Niagra escarpment and horses grazing. We like to provide the utmost privacy with calming country decor and a quiet, uninterrupted space. Watching donkeys and free range chickens provides much amusement.

Our walkout basement self-serve suite has large, bright windows and a private entrance. It includes a full compact kitchen and living area, office nook, 3 pc bath and one bedroom. Although we don't provide a cooked breakfast, we do provide fresh eggs from our own chickens once per week. We welcome children 16+ Sorry we cannot accommodate younger than that.

Decorated with country flair we have designed this 1500 sq ft bright and spacious area to give you a sense of serenity as you reconnect to a forgotten and simpler way of life. Enjoy a relaxing fire in the fireplace or connect to our unlimited Wifi for streaming or work with your own devices. Or maybe just sit outside awhile and enjoy the peace of God's creatures and the gorgeous sunsets!

If you bring your dog, we have a fenced in yard for them to run in with a doggie door entrance to the kitchen. Sorry but we cannot accommodate cats. We request that dogs are not allowed on the furniture!

We are 10 minutes to Alliston if you are looking for shopping or food and the Loretto Inn and Tavern is just down the road for a late night snack.

With Host's permission and supervision and a signed liability waiver, you will be able to visit the animals with hosts in attendance.

We will be here to greet guests when they arrive and are available if you need anything. We live upstairs and love to share the serenity of our farm with our guests.

-Children 16 and up are welcome. Sorry we cannot accommodate children younger than 16

Story Book Meadows

It was perfect for our needs. The owners were very friendly and helpful as we had a sick dog (they recommended a vet who was excellent). There are 2 donkeys, a minature horse, free range chickens and as expected several beautiful horses. This property is geared more for adults and older children, ie over 16. We ended up extending our stay due to a family problem and do not regret it. We had a wonderful time and recommend it highly for anyone looking for a place to relax and unwind.

About the host

Hosted by Trish

Host profile image
I have owned horses as a hobby and business for over 50 years both here in Ontario and in Ocala, Florida. I love the farm life and enjoy all the animals. My husband and I love to meet new people and we hope they will become friends.

We partner with the horses to help people with emotional issues and personal development.

We no longer have dogs of our own but have owned dogs our entire lives. At one time we even had nine at once!!! We love to share our farm with those we host and enjoy watching dogs run freely in our yard. There is lots of walking areas nearby as well.

Why they chose this property

This property has a beautiful view of the Niagra Escarpment and the Blue Mountains. It is a very peaceful place with mostly retired horses and lots of chickens. We are on 21 acres of pastures and forest. The B & B suite is very bright with a view over the back pastures. The sunsets are stunning and you might see all kinds of different birds, bunnies and the occasional fox. This is a rural area and surrounded by other farms yet we're close to town and all the conveniences.
