Finchstone Guest House- Walk to Ste. Anne's Spa

Finchstone Guest House is an ideal private setting for family and friends to gather and relax. It’s also a great base for exploring the many charming towns of Northumberland County, visiting Ste. Anne’s Spa, or enjoying the spectacular beaches of Cobourg and Prince Edward County. See the Driving Tour Highlights and Eateries guide for a selection of fine restaurants to start your adventure.

This fully renovated 5-bedroom farmhouse (3 with ensuite baths) sits on 30 acres of privacy, tucked down a leafy 100-metre driveway. Guests have exclusive use of the property, including a pool, BBQ, two spacious reception rooms with cozy reading areas, and scenic walking trails. A self-serve continental breakfast is provided.

Finchstone is just a short stroll from Ste. Anne’s Spa. Spend a day using your spa pass, relax on Cobourg’s stunning beach, or golf at the beautiful Shelter Valley course — then return to your own private retreat.

The three suites are large and offer views of gardens, farmland, and forest, with Ste. Anne’s Spa and Lake Ontario in the distance. Two additional bedrooms are smaller and more private, located adjacent to the suites. Outdoors, you’ll find a pool, patio, and a three-story treehouse nearby.

Visitors may enjoy a scenic drive through the many charming towns nearby, including Cobourg and Port Hope for dining and shopping, or unique destinations such as Warkworth, Stirling, Hastings, and Prince Edward County. For something more casual, try the BBQ in Keene, or take in the beautiful historic roads around Rice Lake.

An interactive Driving Tour with local restaurants, directions, and clickable websites is available for guests. It can be viewed here: Tour. 

Within walking distance, you’ll find Ste. Anne’s food truck and bakery for delicious meals and morning espresso. For a sit-down option, The Lass & Ladle in nearby Grafton offers spectacular dishes, along with the many fine restaurants and pubs in Cobourg and Port Hope.

Adjacent to the farmhouse, the rustic yet restored barn can be reserved for an additional cost. Featuring chandeliers and finished pine floors, it provides a memorable setting for both kids’ activities and adult gatherings. Please inquire to book.

Inside the house, you and your guests will have full access to all areas, including the TV room and two reception rooms. Entry is simple with your private door code, and while hosts may be in the nearby house, they are always available by phone if needed.
