We offer a perfect spot to relax, unwind and enjoy the many recreational opportunities the beautiful Comox Valley has to offer. From skiing the local mountains in the morning to golfing championship golf courses or sport fishing in the afternoon.

Wellington House was built in 1992. Due to an unusual lot size and shape our home is a very unique design. Shaped like a fan and built on a slope, it has a very unassuming front giving way to an elaborate two storey design at the rear.

A large upper deck that looks out onto the garden and the wild park faces south to south west and has lots of sunshine for those who like to tan. The awning which covers the main lounge windows provide shade for those that do not enjoy too much sun. The lower patio is covered and cloistered and is a favorite place for guests to sit and enjoy the vista of the beautifully landscaped, multi-leveled garden. Many perennial flowers, and flowering shrubs provide constant colour and perfume. In the evening the evening scented stocks waft their fragrance to those sitting outside. During the summer of 1997, a grape arbour and private sitting area was added to the garden. A quiet spot to have morning coffee overlooking the roses. Located in the lower garden is the original weigh scale from the mining days which is being prepared for a sunken garden.

Guests enjoy a full breakfast in the huge country kitchen, with Doug cooking his gourmet specialties. If the weather is hot, breakfast can be served out on the upper deck, where guests can enjoy the many species of birds that frequent the bird feeders in the garden. The Blue Jays love to call out, especially if their food supply has not been replenished. In addition to the birds, deer, black bear and the occasional nocturnal raccoon that have been seen in the park at the back of the house.
