Our stay at Tall House was an amazing introduction to Pender Island! Gloria and Andy were gracious and attentive hosts who provided special little touches such as a welcome card, hand-picked flowers, and delicious home baked blueberry scones.
Upon arriving, they met us to give us a tour, hand over keys, and shared helpful info for both the house and exploring the island. Through no fault of their own, the bathroom faucet broke shortly before we arrived, but Gloria and Andy handled it professionally; they kept us in the loop on repair updates in a respectful, non intrusive way that we greatly appreciated.
The house itself cannot be beat! Charming, airy house situated on a secluded property with a spacious master bedroom and two single beds in the 3rd storey loft. There is also a futon in the atrium but it's better suited for short lounging sessions rather than overnight sleep...but it'll work in a pinch. The wood burning stove made for cozy evenings and heated the entire house very efficiently (if you turn on the ceiling fan)! My favorite room in the house, however, was the atrium that boasted beautiful views of the backyard... A sun-drenched room perfect for relaxing with a book.
We were looking for a serene place for R&R, and Tall House definitely fit the bill. I highly, highly recommend staying here!
