Property info

This lovely heritage home was originally built in 1852 but after a fire was rebuilt in 1892 in the Italianate style it is today. It was home to two Premieres, the late Honourable Joseph Ghiz and Premiere Robert Ghiz. Our Four Star Bed and Breakfast with spacious grounds lacks for nothing, offering Victorian charm with modern amenities. Elegant guest rooms, either with a queen or two twin beds, hardwood floors, private jacuzzi tub bathrooms, television, DVD’s, wireless internet, and A/C. Sumptuous hot breakfasts served in our formal diningroom. Downtown, shopping, restaurants & Victoria Park are within strolling distance. Ample private parking available. Experience “Island Hospitality” from your caring hosts!
