Welcome to Traill Estate – A Naturalist’s Dream!
60 spectacular and award winning acres await you
in the rolling Northumberland Hills.
Amazing, panoramic views of Rice Lake, fields
of wild flowers and forested ravines. A network
of walking trails laces the property and pioneer
author and botanist Catharine Parr Traill settled
here in 1847 and wrote about the property and
surroundings.
Designed with monochromatic exterior materials and featuring rustic, comfortable
interiors, the Traill dwellings resonate with, rather than dominate, the historic
Mount Ararat landscape. The charming country homes Traill House and Traill
Guest House are designed in the romantic tradition of English country cottages.
Two hundred year-old hand hewn beams and rough stucco walls afford a cosy rustic
elegance. The Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and Culture has designated this land
to be of historical significance. The uplands, with panoramic views, hayfields and
tall grass prairie restoration, contrast with the deep forested ravine system.
