Enjoy your Hornby Island vacation at this stylish, comfortable cottage. Located a 10-minute walk from the breathtaking Sandpiper Beach, this home is a perfect venue for an artist’s retreat, a family holiday or a romantic getaway. The space is well-suited for up to six people. 

This modern cottage encourages relaxation: natural light pours in through myriad windows and skylights; extensive decking around the cottage offers many locations to recline; and a thoughtfully landscaped garden has sitting areas for both sun-seekers and shade-dwellers. 

The master bedroom is spacious and bright, housing a comfortable queen-sized bed as well as a fold-out sofa suitable for one or two young children. On either side of the bed, sleek Barcelona chairs allow you to get comfy and gaze through the floor-to-ceiling windows. If you tire of the view of the goldfish pond and lush garden, you’ll find a full entertainment system tucked away in a handsome, red pine armoire. 

The open-concept living room, dining room and kitchen have vaulted ceilings, sliding doors and funky triangular windows. This open space makes for easy visiting while you prepare meals, stretch out with books and magazines, or curl up to watch the fire burn away in the wood stove. The living room’s hide-a-bed with its Sealy Serta mattress comfortably sleeps two. 

In addition to the main house, a bunkhouse offers a peaceful, private setting with extra accommodations. Single bunk-beds comfortably sleep two. 

Hornby Island, often referred to as the jewel in the Gulf Islands’ crown, is a tremendous destination for its varied beaches, artists’ studios and vast network of hiking and biking trails. At this artistically crafted cottage you’ll have the happy problem each day of deciding whether to take in the island’s sights and activities, or to stay put and enjoy the comforts of home.
