*Electric heat provided* *Gas Stove/Fireplaces are Permitted* Valinore is a beautifully forested property; tucked away and private, yet close enough to adventures like beaches, rivers, lakes as well as markets, restaurants and much more. Our yurts are comfortable and cozy. The site is rustic but contains everything you need for a relaxing and refreshing stay. The space *Heated Yurt* *Gas Stove/Fireplaces are Permitted* Valinore is a glamping getaway nestled on a beautifully forested property on Vancouver Island. Nenya is located at the back of 4 acres of land and surrounded by fir, pine and cedar trees. As well, ferns, salal and many other plants create a serenely green view. Guests will have access to an outhouse (with flushing toilet), an outdoor shower with hot water, wifi, and, a private 4 meter bell tent with a very comfortable queen sized bed. The location is a few kilometres off of Alberni Hwy and a short drive away from beaches, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, and many hiking and biking trails. The site is also within biking distance to some trails. The Errington Farmers market is a walk or bike ride away. And only a short car ride away are several other nearby markets including Goats on the Roof and the Qualicum Beach Farmers Market. Coffee and tea is provided in the outdoor kitchen, which is located near the shower. These amenities (along with the outhouse) will be shared with guests of 2 other tents, and a cabin. No smoking on site. Propane camp stoves are permitted. No pets, sorry. The property is already home to pets and children, who may be heard playing nearby. The property has two resident guardian dogs. They are large but very gentle. Guests are asked to use bins provided to dispose of food waste, garbage and recycling. Also, guests are urged to keep the common areas tidy as other guests will be using these as well. There are fire extinguishers located in each tent, and there is a fire extinguisher located on the outside of the shower along with a first aid kit. Many nights have been serenaded by the hoots of a resident owl. The pond, which is home to frogs near the garden at the front of the property, has been visited by ducks and herons. And though the property is well protected by dogs, sometimes bears wander by. The dogs alert the property owners when there are animals nearby, which may be heard at night. The tent is privately tucked away and accessed by a path. The path is illuminated by lights. This path is decently clear but it is always a good idea to ‘watch your step’ especially at night. The tent sits on a cedar deck and is accompanied by a sitting area. The tent contains a queen-sized bed, a lamp, outlets for charging electronics, a chest for storage, bedding, pillows, poufs for floor sitting, and towels. Steps away, you will find the shared common area, which contains the outhouse (with flush toilet), shower (with hot water), and another kitchenette area where guests can help themselves to tea and coffee, or use the sink to wash up. Visiting the common area may mean coming into contact with other guests. This shared area can be an opportune place to meet fellow travellers. However, each site is separate, private and spaced appropriately from the others. There is plenty of room on the land for guests to enjoy peace and solitude, if desired. Your tranquil getaway awaits. We look forward to your stay. Guest access The common areas (like the bathroom and shower) can be accessed by all guests.
