Wexford Heritage House - Cumberland, Prince Edward Island

Classic Country Charm

Wexford House vacation home welcomes you with its charming architecture, stunning Island views and a loving glimpse into PEI’s past. Set on 100 lush green acres, Wexford House includes its own private beach with 1,000 feet of red Island sand and warm Northumberland Strait waters to swim in. Whether you’re relaxing on our beach or enjoying the water view and dreamlike PEI landscapes from the front porch, Wexford House offers you an enchanting PEI experience.

Inside, the house is roomy and can accommodate up to 10 guests with 3 bathrooms, two large living rooms, a separate dining room, and a thoughtfully equipped modern kitchen. The set of stairs off the kitchen leads up to a private self-contained suite including its own bathroom. The set of stairs from the main hallway leads up to three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a south facing den with views of the Northumberland Strait. There is an additional bedroom on the ground floor. Built in 1879, we have very recently renovated Wexford House to include modern comforts and a stylish interior while retaining the original craftsmanship. Canada Select has designated Wexford House as a four-star accommodation.

We offer internet access (Wi-Fi) along with TV entertainment equipped with local TV stations and Netflix. We are situated in an excellent location close to beaches (including our own), golf courses, and walking trails. We are only 15 minutes to the town of Cornwall, 30 minutes to Charlottetown, and the charming Victoria-by-the-Sea.

Architectural charm, a stunning Island vista, a beautifully renovated interior, and its own private beach – Wexford House is a perfect PEI vacation home.

Our family had a great time staying at Wexford Heritage House. Ron was a wonderful and gracious host. The 1887 house is beautifully maintained, fully equipped and has been updated with charming décor. There are large lawns at the property with plenty of space for young children to safely play. The property has its own beach which is great for exploring and fun for children. We visited Canoe Cove Beach and played a round of golf at nearby Glen Afton. Our family had a fabulous dinner at the Lobster Barn in Victoria. Charlottetown and the beautiful sandy beaches on the north shore are a relatively short drive from the house. I highly recommend Wexford Heritage House as place to stay when visiting PEI.

This stately 1887 house is beautifully maintained & updated with charming décor, amazing lawns & pretty gardens. There is lots of space for several couples or extended families. The property has it’s own beach which is idéal for exploring & children. Nearby we would recommend Canoë Cove for kids when the tide is low. And there is very good golfing at Country View. Further afield, it’s central for daytrips to PEI’s many wonderful beaches, seafood restaurants, great golfing, Charlottetown & provincial & national parks. It is fantastic value & the owner is super.

Want for nothing on your stay away from home

This was our annual sibling trip. There were 4 couples and one single. Everyone had their own sleeping room. We ate in 5 of the 8 nights and everything we needed for cooking was there! Have never seen such a well stocked home. We wanted for nothing. The house has the feel and look of old nostalgia but with modern updates. The yard, amazing! The views, spectacular! The cleanliness we arrived to, top notch!! Anyone who rents this fabulous home will not be disappointed. Can't say enough....thank you, thank you!!!

Evening breezes

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Wexford Heritage House. It is a lovely old house, tastefully restored, with enough original finish work for it to maintain lots of its historic charm. Spacious enough for a large group, and with abundant outdoor seating opportunities too. Well-equipped kitchen, great for preparing food, or just relaxing. Beds are firm and comfortable, and I was able to get fantastically restful sleep. Cool evening breezes in early August. The beach across the street is a nearby bonus, and it's an easy drive to bigger beaches and other attractions. Very convenient to Charlottetown. Just a great place!

A wonderful week with family

Such a beautiful house for our family to gather, relax, and explore the area. The house was incredibly clean, spacious, well equipped and just lovely overall. Ron was very easy to communicate with, and the location was perfect! Near beaches and a short jaunt to Charlottetown. We had seniors, teens and a four year old. Enough space for folks to spread out, visit, play and sleep. Can’t say enough about how fabulous this house is!!!

Wonderful stay in historic farmhouse

We had a wonderful stay at the Wexford Farmhouse. The house had everything that we needed and is very comfortable. We stayed at the house together with another family with children of the same age (aspiring teenagers). There is a nice little beach nearby. With the central location it is easy to go see Charlottetown and other attractions on the island. The area is quiet and relaxing. The large grass area is excellent for the children to play frisbee. The communication with the owner Ron was excellent. He called us to see if everything was in order and gave us a few tips for things to see and visit.

Perfect Vacation Home!

The house and property exceeded our expectations. It was clean, comfortable, quiet and spacious. It was a perfect mix of antiques and modern furniture. We loved walking down to the private beach with red cliffs and sand. The out buildings, rolling fields and view of water from the windows were breathtaking. It’s in a good location for island day trips. As a family, we have wanted to visit PEI for 30 years. It was a truly memorable trip thanks to this house. We even felt like it was a modern version of Anne’s home! I highly recommend it!

Heritage house stay

This house has an amazing amount of character! You can tell this house has been a labour of love to get it restored to its current glory. Everything we needed was easily found and we had a very comfortable week long stay. The big yard was awesome for my 4 year old nephew to run around and play. The location was great for us, on a quiet road with a nice long driveway. Ron was very easy to communicate with and got back to us in a timely manor. We would stay here again in the future!!

The stay at Wexford has been one of the most enjoyable vacations our family has ever had. The beauty of Prince Edward Island is fabulous, but the house added to the pleasure of this trip.

Wexford Heritage House is the perfect family vacation rental in PEI

Our family would definitely recommend the Wexford Heritage House for a vacation rental in PEI! The house is well appointed with all the amenities to host a large family for a relaxing stay in beautiful PEI. The kids had a lot of fun walking along the beach and playing in the water. The property has a lot space allowing us to play some games with the kids in the front yard. We thought the location in Cumberland allowed for a perfect combination of relaxing days at the house and sight seeing tours to other parts of the island. Our family was very happy with the week we spent at Wexford Heritage House.

Quite a honey comfortable stay for our family. Laundry off the kitchen was super convenient. Every night we went across the way to go clamming and beach combing. Lots of space to accommodate the grandparents and children. Super appreciative of the large property - space for the children to run and place. Liked the extra touches like outdoor toys/family games. The kitchen had lots of supplies for cooking family dinners. Ron was super prompt in communication, as was Gail.
