ABOUT THIS PLACE
Restored and redesigned by internationally celebrated architect Brian MacKay-Lyons, the historic 1830s Schoolhouse offers a luxurious and relaxing getaway at Shobac Farm. Accommodating up to 6 guests, this charming two-storey, fully equipped house is ideal for couples, families and small groups seeking at any time of year.
