About this property

Darnley Farmhouse Retreat

Peace, tranquility and stylish island living! Come and enjoy this stunning, charming farmhouse located on a completely private lane at the waters edge in beautiful Darnley, PEI. Wake up to breathtaking panoramic South West views from your bedroom, dining room, and outside on the wrap around deck. Prepare your meals in the newly renovated kitchen, with stainless steel appliances. Take a bath in the clawfoot soaker tub with ocean views or rinse off in the newly-built outdoor shower after a day at a nearby beach. The farmhouse is tastefully furnished and boasts quality linens and bedding. Dine inside or outside on the picnic tables, or enjoy an outdoor campfire around the fire pit. Bring your canoe/kayak and launch into the water directly from the property. Let the kids run around on the spacious front lawn. Grab the binoculars and watch the birds and foxes while enjoying a glass of wine on the patio. Cozy up in front of the gas fireplace in the living room. The Farmhouse is ideal for a PEI vacation, as it is located on the desirable North Shore with 4 beautiful beaches within a 5-10 minutes drive, and less than 15km to the restaurants, shops and services of Kensington. There are some great dining options nearby, including a 5 min walk to pick up fresh seafood for dinner. Come and enjoy this incredible, unique property and you may never want to leave the island.

About the host

Hosted by Toby Schwartz

Host profile image
Family of 4 from Nova Scotia, with deep PEI roots. We've been coming to PEI since birth, have relatives on the island, and love all that it has to offer. It is a magical, relaxing place, which the whole family enjoys.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the Darnley Farmhouse many years ago while staying in the area, so when it came up for sale, we knew it had to be ours! It is a great PEI find, with complete privacy, yet in an ideal location to experience everything the island has to offer, including its incredible beaches. We hope you will love this property as much as we do. It is truly an island gem.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, stylish and high-end interiors, amazing location, water views from almost every room in the house, and access to the water for canoeing/kayaking. Gas fireplace and pull-out sectional sofa available as well.
