The Farm nestled in the wooded hillside.
About Us.
Your hosts Bodo and Sue, hope to provide you with affordable unique accommodation in what we think is a very special place in the Ottawa valley, Ontario.
Foymount farm is set off the road by it's own track in the midst of peace and quiet surrounded by tree covered hills. It is in 140 acres, mainly wood-lot with a few farm animals, horses, fruit trees and home grown vegetables.
We hope that our visitors will use us for their get together's whether it be family reunions, workshops or meetings or a 'get away from it all' experience in company, or solitude. We hope that they may experience a sense of calm and well being during their stay here and enjoy the walks and natural beauty that surrounds them.
At certain times of the year there may be fresh, organic, home grown vegetables and free range eggs from the farm for your use.
We are open to any special requirements and hope to serve your needs.
Activities on the farm.
x-country skiing or sliding.
Enjoy peaceful walks on the trails and around the farm.
Come and meet the horses, Eyora the donkey, Blackberry and cider the cows , and ducks, hens , pot belly pigs and our small flock of sheep and goats.
Collect the eggs, milk Cider the cow (when she is producing), ride a horse or donkey, pet the animals and help 'put the animals to bed'.
Sue is currently studying Parelli Natural Horsemanship level 3. To find out more about Natural Horsemanship please visit www.parelli.com
All our horses have been trained using this method of communication and understanding rather than intimidation, force and mechanics.

Trail riding is available. Please inquire via the booking form or directly by email. Your questions may be answered on our frequently asked questions page?
