    A lovely cottage perfect for the low-key babymoon/anniversary weekend me and my husband were looking for. The photos don't do the property justice -- it was much more spacious and bright than we'd anticipated. The garden was also massive, and we...

    My son and I loved the location, the gorgeous property. the perfect super comfortble and very well equipped cottage, and especially the OWNERS, who were friendly, helpful, very respectful / considerate and helpful .

    It is a very serene and private spot. We love getting away from the busyness of town to camp in the summer months, so Ashling Cottage gave us that feeling while still being a quick drive into town. Perfect winter retreat.

Andree and Brian
Very clean and quiet cottage that will give you that relaxation that you've been looking for! Sit on the outside decks and listen to the birds and enjoy the view of the gardens, lawns and maybe take out that golf club and practise out of the sand trap or play horseshoes, croquet or boccé . For those with babies, we have grandkids so don't travel with all the extra "stuff" that you have at home. Home is here for you. The cottage is brand new, clean, and fully equipped with full kitchen, washer/dryer, spices, microwave, heated bathroom floor and large bedroom with a queen sized bed. There is also a queen sized bed in the sofa in the living room. Hardwood floors throughout. Great for that romantic getaway or bring the family and enjoy all the various outdoor activities from our centrally located cottage. Pets are allowed on pre-approval and if you want to go somewhere and leave your family pet for a few hours or a day, we can do that in our kennels. Let us make your vacation a reality!
Brian and Andree, five years ago, decided to live the dream and move to Vancouver Island. Between the two of us, we have six children that all live in Calgary, and now numerous - still counting - grandchildren. We love to watch sports and play golf and just keep very active in our three acres of land that is becoming our dream home. We love to meet new people from all over the world.
The rain forest is what we live in, but rain is mostly a winter commodity. The temperature is rarely below 5C in the winter and spring is blooming and summer is comfortably warm. You can pretty much golf all year long. In the winter, you can actually golf and ski all in one day. Arrowsmith Golf Course is only 10 minutes away and there is numerous golf courses around the area for your enjoyment. Hiking is two minutes away to Little Qualicum River Falls, but hiking is, again, everywhere out here. Oh, and then there is, of course, the beach that Qualicum Beach and Parksville are famous for. Come and let us tell you all about it!
