Jungle
Bamboo, wicker and rattan furniture, grass-cloth wallpaper plus a geometric grass print duvet help define this Jungle theme. Wall hangings include Indonesian wood masks, a signed ‘Buffalo Print’ by famous Canadian artist Jean Mackay Henrich, and a Persian copper plate from Ankara, Turkey. The side tables feature authentic Indian brass lamps and the elephant, carved from pure Acacia wood, is from Zimbabwe. 1 Queen bed; 2-person maximum.
Jungle Room
Marine
This bedroom, with views to the back gardens and large waterfall, has an ensemble of nautical items. Authentic mariner charts for north & south Salt Spring denote the ocean-bottom topography. The pictured tall sailing ships are from Boston Harbour during America’s celebration of its bicentennial in 1976. The extensive seashell collection on display was obtained in 1968 from Tahiti, American Samoa, & Fiji. The stained-glass window of Robert Bateman’s famous killer whale print was commissioned to a local stained-glass artisan in memory of the owner’s cousin, Dr. Robin Best, a marine biologist & curator of killer whales for aquariums, who provided the Amazon exhibit to the Vancouver Aquarium. The sailor’s jersey hanging on the closet door is an authentic uniform worn by a sailor that hoisted the sails on the 351-ft. four-mast Sea Cloud - the largest passenger-carrying square rigger on the ocean today. The tall-sailing ship models come from as far away as Newport, RI and Sydney, AU. [We ask that guests please not handle the seashells or tall sailing ship models in the room]. 1 Queen bed; 2-person maximum.
