Discover traces of the Prince Edward Island’s earliest settlers through a unique historical and ecological view. The road less travelled will take us along the pristine coastline of Prince Edward Island’s south shore to an historical village and to one of the last original Farm estates of the 1800’s.
Highlights Include:
Orwell Corner Historic Village home to the PEI Agricultural Heritage Museum an agricultural crossroads first settled in the early 1800’s. Restored to its late 19th century state in the early 70’s its charm lies in exploring the old church and cemetery, picnicking beside the schoolhouse or visiting the working blacksmith shop. You can even stop by the barnyard to see horses, goats, pigs and maybe even chickens! Outside you can get an amazing view of Orwell Bay that will leave you breathless.
The Sir Andrew Macphail Homestead The 140-acre woodland estate provides a glimpse into the Island’s cultural and natural past. You will hear tales of the important contributions Sir Andrew made to the Island’s economic and social life, his life as a medical doctor and acclaimed writer. Strolling through its exquisite gardens is a great way to explore the Island’s flora and fauna while learning about conservation and restoration of our native forests.
