Seasonal swimming Pool

Seasonal swimming Pool Tennis court
An Agri-villa set on 14 acres of grazed pasture, offering weekly private rentals year round and B&B for shorter stays available Sept-June. Excellent full country-style breakfasts, seasonal swimming pool and tennis court. Take a stroll through our large orchard, play a game of tennis, have a dip in the pool, visit our many animals or explore the nearby beach. "Ja-dai-aich" meaning 'outer island' was the early Comox Valley Indian name for Hornby Island and the inspiration for our identity. It's a simple life we lead here. The deer roam the orchard and the fields, and the panoramic views of the beaches, ocean and mountains are never taken for granted. Our name "Outer Island" defines the solitude and peaceful existence of this land as a retreat from today's hectic urban world. It is a compelling place of intrigue and discovery.

The rustic charm of our ranch homestead, set on 14 acres of farmland, provides a tranquil atmosphere for our guests - a place to relax, rejuvenate and to see agricultural living first-hand.

The simple life does not exclude modern conveniences that enrich one's leisure time. We encourage you to lounge by our seasonal pool and enjoy a game of tennis with friends.

We use only the finest ingredients from our own backyard in our cooking. Imagine a hearty country breakfast of farm-fresh eggs with herbs and vegetables straight from the garden, plump and juicy fruit so fresh it still has the morning dew on it, and the smell of oven baked breads with our very own preserves melting on top.

For your farm stay, we offer two private guest units. Our main Farm House is perfect for the whole family or groups of friends. Our cozy Quince Cottage makes the ideal romantic getaway or small group setting.

The house and cottage are available for weekly stays throughout the year. They are also available for shorter stays and B&B.

Our beautiful Farm House is a ranch-style cedar home decorated with antique artifacts and furniture. It is a home laden with French doors that provide access and views to the orchard, pasture and pool deck.

* 4 bedrooms with high quality linens and down comforters (or non-allergenic alternatives)
