Inn at Glendyer (The)

Alan and Esther are marvelous hosts, greeting us by name on our arrival. Our room (#2) was spacious, well equipped and super clean. The breakfasts were always hearty, great variety and nutritious. They carefully met our dietary restrictions and preferences with a smile, and we were often provided additional home baked snacks for the day. Alan and Esther gladly provided tips and suggestions for sites and activities in the area, and always wanted to hear about our day upon our return to Glendyer at the end of the day. Feels like home. Highly recommended. Beautiful quiet setting with a well maintained walking trail accessible from the property.

Wonderful place with wonderful hosts. I highly recommend staying here. It is a true jewel. Make sure to read about the rich history of the place (and to try Alans shortbread!).

Allen was our main host! We were greeted at the front door, and made to feel at home. Allen's breakfast was absolutely amazing, and kept coming, so don't think you are finished after the plate of food. The rooms were very spacious and very clean. The power on the island went off one evening and Allen stayed up for all the guests, escorted them up the stairs with a flashlight and had a flashlight in each room as well (prepared!!). Upon departure we were gifted Allen's shortbreads to go! Amazing views and right along a walking trail. Oh yeah- listen to Allen that the Google way is impassable. You'd have to traverse a creek to do that!

We had a splendid stay at the Inn at Glendyer and really encourage you to visit Esther and Alan. The Inn is very quiet and beautiful and the wonderful hosts go WAY above and beyond in their kindness and help (read on). My two teens and I shared lovely room no. 3, which was actually three rooms: main bedroom with queen bed, a separate little sitting room with twin bed, and a wonderful bathroom. It all felt like a (modern and efficient) version of Green Gables with a cosy appeal and great comfort. Breakfast was delicious: scrambled eggs and bacon, toast, fresh baked muffins, a huge fruit bowl, lots of coffee and tea. Alan and Esther make the Inn extra special. Esther had learned my kids' names before we arrived, catered for the various dietary needs among her six guests with great kindness, and gave us warm hugs on departure. The already lovely visit became more notable as we tried to leave and found that a rear tire on our rental car was pancake flat. Alan sprang into action and emerged with a hydraulic jack, complete professional tire repair kit, air compressor, and a huge array of tools. He had the tire off, fully repaired, and back on the car in no time... and would accept only our thanks. The patch was still holding thousands of kms later when we returned the car. Meanwhile Esther snuck a bag of shortbread cookies into our pile of camping gear. I'm not always a fan of BnB lodging but the Inn at Glendyer is a gem. Huge thanks to both Esther and Alan for a truly memorable stay.
