Wellington, Ontario

In the heart of Prince Edward County wine country just north of the lakeside town of Wellington is the Gilead Schoolhouse. This historic property was built in 1877 and served as a one room schoolhouse for many decades. It has now been converted into a comfortable three bedroom home and retains much of the original charm and character. The living room features twenty two foot cathedral ceilings with the original slate black board and the teacher's platform. The bell in the tower on the roof can still be rung from outside! This lovely one acre property is bordered by old split log fences and is surrounded by open fields on all sides ensuring quiet and privacy.
The Gilead Schoolhouse is situated only 2 minutes from Wellington and its public beach and conveniences. In the other direction is Bloomfield only 5 minutes away with its restaurants and shops. The majority of the County's wonderful wineries can be reached within 10 minutes. Many other County attractions are just minutes away: Sandbanks Provincial Park, the Black River Cheese Company, Historic Picton with its shops and restaurants and much much more.



This wonderfully charming house is available all year round and sleeps 6 adults comfortably. Bicycles of all sizes (including for the kids) are available for use in the summer and cross country skis in the winter. A Sandbanks beach pass is also included with rentals.
