I was invited to a wedding near Collingwood. My family already had a cabin filled with guests. Ravenna Hill Bed & Breakfast is just down the road from my family and all the wedding festivities. What a great find! It is a short drive to Collingwood, Thornbury and Meaford.
Giselle and Juergen Rust are the proprietors. Giselle kept me interested for hours as she regaled me with stories about the history of this charming place. They first discovered this magnificent property on the top of a hill. It overlooks the Beaver Valley.
They first put up the barn with restored barn wood. They actually lived in the tack room of the barn for several years. It all helped that Juergen is an architect. The wood frame structure in the large manor house is functional and very aesthetic. The many pictures of horses and boats reflects their passion for horse riding and sailing.
The guest rooms are all on a different level from the private residence. Each room is beautifully furnished with Canadian pine furniture featuring a private ensuite. The large windows look out to the spiritual vista. A delicious breakfast including homemade bread and delicious jams is served in a charming dining room (also with a magnificent view.)
Giselle is even willing to prepare a dinner. I can’t think of anything more pleasant after a day of skiing at Blue Mountain, kayaking on the Beaver River or hiking the Bruce Trail.
Weekend Rates are $115.00 per night. During the week the rate is $105.00
It is quiet and charming. You are made to feel so welcome. The house is well designed and so comfortable. It is a great get away for a few days or longer.
Even the pouring rain seemed so pleasant in this warm atmosphere. I was grateful I found this exquisite spot. It is a long lane up to the top of the hill. When you arrive you will no doubt let out a gasp of delight. It is all so pleasant.
