We loved our stay here at Selwyn Shores. The owner, Martha, is a wonderful host and her breakfasts are second to none. The home is lovely with lot's of space for guests. The sun room overlooking the lake is particularly nice. We also enjoyed the dock area and using the canoe provided. It is also very close to Lakefield and... More

The moment we stepped inside Selwyn Shores B & B we felt so comfortable! What a beautiful home! It was spotless. Pamphlets are made available to the guests for things to do, where to have dinner. The B & B is on the shores of a pretty little lake in the Kawartha's called Chemong Lake. You can canoe, take a... More

We were made very welcome from the start of our stay. The location is just brilliant for getting away from the hussle. Our room was very comfortable and we slepted like logs. There were hot drink making facilities in the lower lounge area, (also included chilled bottled water), where there were also plenty of varied reading material available. The lower... More

We B&B a lot, and generally base our experience on the host as much or more than anything else. Martha is congenial, fun, accommodating, resourceful and a genius cook! She let us change rooms when we realized that the downstairs room gave direct access to the grounds and lake and huge lounge, while the slightly more expensive upstairs rooms in... More

I travel alot and decided to stay at Selwyn Shores Bed and Breakfast as a nice treat to myself, and I was not disappointed. The area itself alone is breath-taking but stepping into that warm welcoming home made me feel very much at home. I arrived on a Friday April 6th and was welcomed warmly by Martha herself, right away... More

Back for a second scrapbooking weekend with Martha and Dan. Everything was arranged for our comfort and to give us lots of time to relax and rejuvenate while having a scrapbooking getaway. Scrapbook weekends include all meals which were luscious and well presented. Martha is an excellent cook and we enjoyed every meal. At the end of the weekend she... More

We stayed at the Selwyn Shores B&B one night as part of a 10-day Trent Severn Waterway cruise. While we were able to dock our 22' power cat at Selwyn's dock, it was a problematic because of shallow depth. Be very careful, if you arrive by water! This B&B is in a modern house with several very spacious public rooms.... More
