What guests think

At Stevenson Farms-Harvest Spa B & B, travellers consistently praise the welcoming hosts, historic charm, and peaceful countryside setting, noting cozy, quiet rooms and relaxing outdoor spaces like the fire pit for an unhurried, homey getaway.

Many enjoy the on-site spa, bar, and gardens, though a few found spa availability limited or expectations not fully met. Rooms are generally comfortable, but some note small sizes and age-related quirks like creaky floors, low water pressure, or decor needing a refresh. Breakfast feedback ranges from basic to very good, with smoothies often praised. Expect a quiet, historic B&B stay with rustic charm and a few old-house tradeoffs.

Beautiful, quiet setting with a ton of history. The owners are very engaging and accommodating. The fire pit, with a drink from the VERY well stocked bar was an added bonus at the end of the day! Only wish we had more time at this wonderful property.

If you like old properties with creaking floors, very slow running water, so a good shower is out of the question, and not able to walk into the spa and book a massage, then this property is for you. It took 3 days for them to call me back to confirm our stay, I would not recommend it.

I loved the ladies who worked there. The breakfast was perfect…especially Sonia’s smoothies. The bed was comfortable. The tub was clean and inviting. The spa did a great job on my pedi. It was close to quaint towns to visit.

Maison ancestrale magnifique avec un jardin agréable où flâner. Le personnel est accueillant et gentil. Cependant vous y trouverez les inconvénients d'une vieille bâtisse notamment pour les sanitaires (douche avec peu de pression, réglage de la température difficile, robinets de lavabo dans la chambre pas pratique).

Midweek romantic getaway at the Stevenson had a lot of great things going for it. The property is beautiful as is the bucolic setting but Allison is not far if you need anything. A few downsides : 1) our room, the Elspeth en-suite was great but wallpaper was pealing and the room could do with a refresh. And daily mais service would have been a nice touch. However loved the tub and old furniture. 2) breakfast. The continental is underwhelming. Toast, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, coffee/tea. Bare minimum. No cheese, cold cuts, homemade items. You could pay $25 for a hot breakfast supplement but that seemed steep. It wouldn’t have taken much effort to have a far better breakfast. We would definitely stay again because the old house is simply beautiful and filled with old furniture and accessories. It’s just the basic hotel stuff that could be better.

We were in town for a hockey tournament and were looking for a place to relax rather than the big hotels with lots of teams. We had the most amazing time at the inn, quiet, peaceful and it turned our busy weekend into a relaxing holiday. The room was great; cozy and we all slept great. It felt like we had our own private home from home. Breakfast was perfect to pick up and go when we had to be out early and the staff were warm and friendly, taking care of us so well. We'll be staying again, hockey or not!

Stevenson, the owner was really unique & his hospitality was par excellence. I stayed here for 2 nights & experience was memorable. Although we had taken the small rooms but we were provided anything we asked for. The service was amazing. It’s an old building but one can feel the ancient atmosphere. I will highly recommend the property for at least one time experience.
