Alfred House
Alfred House is a grand 4-bedroom Queen Anne style heritage home built in 1905, set within Ruckle Heritage Farm — the oldest operating family farm in BC's Gulf Islands and now part of a Class A provincial park. Guests rent the entire house via Airbnb and enjoy sweeping pastoral views, handcrafted period woodwork, and access to on-site farm-to-table meals and picnic baskets. Accredited by the BC Accommodations Association, it offers a genuinely immersive heritage experience for cyclists exploring Salt Spring Island.
