A new addition to the original farmhouse is the breezeway. It not only connects you to the Bunkie, but it also gives you another entrance from the front and back of the house. Vintage lockers act as closets and bins and baskets keep all shoes and other items neatly tucked away. Natural light pours into this room all day long. 

The Bunkie

Now for the show stopper…the Bunkie. Where modern meets vintage – and it works! Polished concrete floors, modern furniture and accents compliment the vintage charm. This sizeable space offers guests a king-size murphy bed, a full bathroom with a washer and dryer, a wood-burning stove and a comfortable seating area. As well, there is a wall of terrace doors that open up onto a wrap-around deck. 

The Bedrooms

The upper floor features 3 bedrooms. The first room is the yellow room, with a double bed, next to the pewter room with a queen size bed. Lastly, one enormous bedroom will be every child’s dream. It features four single beds with large floor space in the middle to play. And playtime includes a great selection of board games, books, and two antique doll houses.  

The Bathrooms

Easterbrook has three full bathrooms. Two on the main floor with walk in glass showers, and one on the upper floor with an original clawfoot tub. 

French Country Details

French country isn’t a ‘less is more’ kind of style. It’s definitely all about the details. And, that’s just what Easterbrook offers. Nothing is perfectly polished, rather, finishes feature a weathered appearance with subtle distressing for a lived-in feel. Blending old with the new. 

Prince Edward Country: the sought-after location

Prince Edward County has quickly become the sought-after destination for a quick getaway as it’s only a couple hours east of Toronto and couple hours west of Ottawa. And why not? The County offers so many eateries, wineries, craft beer, ciders and spirits. Antiques, boutique shops and galleries fill the charming towns of Wellington, Bloomfield and Picton. Lastly, beach lovers flock to Sandbanks Provincial Park for the spectacular sand dunes, sandy beaches and natural views of Lake Ontario.

Easterbrook: location in Prince Edward County

Easterbrook is situated in the area in The County known as South Shore. It’s made up of farms, tiny hamlets of Cherry Valley, Milford and Black River. Being a bit removed from the popular areas in The County, if you seek solitude and natural landscapes this is the place to go. Also, it’s the (temporary) home of migrating birds, where the sights and sounds, especially the warblers, are abundant.

As a holidaymaker…

If you love the idea of spending your holiday in an old farmhouse in the south of France. Surrounded by lavender fields or vineyards, farmer’s and antique markets – luckily, you don’t need to book a ticket to Paris to get that French country experience. I found it, and a whole lot more, at Easterbrook!

This Airbnb is perfect for:

  • large group stays – it sleeps up to 10 guests in its 4 bedrooms (3 full bathrooms)
  • families – your kids will love the kid-designed bedroom bunking up to four children
  • dog-friendly – the large yard with nothing but countryside views gives your pup lots of room to roam
  • quiet, countryside views – Easterbrook sits on a low-traffic country road offering lots of privacy

Thank you to the fabulous hosts of the Easterbrook for gifting me with a stay. As always, the opinions expressed are my own.
