Wyndham House, Tryon, PEI

She is as elegant as she is beautiful. Wyndham House was formerly the Manse of the Tryon United Church, a National Historic Site. She is truly an important part of Prince Edward Island.

But we love her because she is a place where we have made wonderful summertime memories.

Elegance of a bygone era

Wyndham House was built in 1870, and still retains an air of antique beauty. But we have found the house ideal for the here-and-now. The dining room where marriages were once performed has proven to be a wonderfully suitable place to eat thick crust pizza!

Stately. And state-of-the-art!

The formal air is all an illusion. This is a house equipped with wireless Internet. All the better to connect with our Facebook pals -- to tell them we're having a wonderful summer.

Bedroom Magic

Is any room in the house more fraught with dreamy magic? Is this not the place we all want to fall into on a summer afternoon? Or a summer night? At Wyndham House we made sure almost all the bedrooms were equipped with something not available in 1870: the King Size bed!

They seem to glow!

A bedside lamp at twilight seems to glow. And beckon. Why is it that a book read here, in the early hours of the evening, seems more interesting? More delightful.

Playful details

Friends and family who come to stay here are greeted with whimsy. And treated to comfort. This house. These rooms. They have been created to delight and welcome.

The allure of the South Shore

It's an indisputable fact. Our beloved red sandy beaches on the South Shore are shallow, safe, warm, expansive. Twice a day nature reveals thousands of hectares of tidepools and sand -- low tide. That lunar miracle creates a playground, six minutes from our back door!
