When you really need to fly the coop, make your getaway to Runaway Rooster!
Located in the heart of charming Bloomfield, this stunning, chalet-style home has everything you need to escape the city barnyard.
Its spacious, upscale, cottage-like feel and aesthetic create a non-traditional B&B experience – perfect if you’re looking for a unique, cool vibe and something completely different.
It’s the ideal place to hit pause, relax and experience the bounty of the County. Escape for a day, a weekend, a week or longer.
Centrally located, the beautiful, airy, red-cedar, Pan Abode-style home features three bedrooms on the second floor, and a stunning Great Hall that soars to an 18-foot-high ceiling. It offers a resort-like ambience with several outdoor seating areas on a large creek-side property.
THE ROOST
The Roost is the home’s beautiful master bedroom with tall cedar ceilings, ensuite bathroom, queen-size wrought-iron bed, and in-room lounge area.
A whimsical rooster painted by local artist Ron Windebanks (Garden Arts, Warkworth) hangs above the comfy bed. There is a small in-room seating/reading area, and loads of dresser space. A private walkout balcony overlooks the front garden and is perfect for watching the sunset colour the sky.
The Roost’s ensuite is a bright, spacious three-piece bathroom with classic black-and-white tiling. The oversized shower offers both a rain-head and handheld option. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hair dryer and towels are conveniently supplied.
For your absolute comfort, the room also feature self-controlled air-conditioning and heating and a ceiling fan … or simply open the windows and enjoy the country-fresh air!
And of course, a sumptuous, 2-course breakfast is included!
EXPLORE THE PROPERTY
Feel free to explore our one-acre, creeksideproperty to its fullest. There are several outdoor decks for sitting and lounging.
