Along with my passion for food that I started since I was a kid growing up and learning to cook from my Father. I also developed a love and passion for travel. My day job allows for me to put aside time and funds to let me set out and fill my soul with wonderful experiences near and far. I thought to myself....self would it not make sense to combine my passions for food and travel together...the answer a resounding YES!
I dedicate my first post to a wonderful spot in the heart of some of the most fertile farmlands and wineries in the world...
The Black Walnut Manor
The Loft - What a beautiful room, this photo courtesy of Black Walnut Manor. |
Going forwards I will be presenting new locales and destination hotspots that I have personally visited in my travels. I will write based totally on my personal experiences and will only recommend points of destination that have really touched me and would visit again in a heart beat! Let's begin our series
with a little gem of a place that I feel is the perfect launch point to explore
the Niagara Wine Country.
The Dining Room where guest share a communal table and some lovely good eats! |
The Black Walnut
Manor is a beautiful boutique B & B located in Vineland, Ontario.The owner operators
Carole and Mike are the consummate hosts attending to every detail to make your
stay as enjoyable as possible. Upon
our arrival we were struck by the quaint surroundings, the lovely pool, the
beauty of the suites and the food.
Carole is magnificent in the kitchen, the food that she creates for her guests is mostly locally sourced and presented simply and is very tasty. You can tell that she has a passion for food and has a definite flair for presentation. The food that Carole prepared for us on our visit was lovingly prepared, delicious and very satisfying. The rooms are decorated in various styles but are all elegant, comfortable and luxurious. With orchards, farms and wineries so close by I think the only tough choice you will have to make on your visit is which place to visit first?

During our stay we were very happy to meet with Guests that visit
the Manor. Everyone raved about how wonderful the Manor was and how stunning their suites were. On our visit we enjoyed the great company and learned that for many guests this was not their first visit!

coming back sometime soon.
