Summer in Wakefield: Slow Down, Breathe Deep, and Stay a While
There’s something special about summer in Wakefield.
Maybe it’s the sound of the Gatineau River flowing beneath the covered bridge. Maybe it’s mornings spent with a coffee on the deck while birds sing in the trees. Or maybe it’s simply that life seems to slow down here.
At L'Auberge des Collines, we love watching our guests arrive carrying the stress of everyday life—and leave a few days later feeling rested, refreshed, and already planning their next visit.

Start Your Morning Slowly
One of the greatest luxuries of staying here is not having to rush.
Wake up naturally, enjoy a light continental breakfast, and step outside with a fresh cup of coffee. Whether you're staying in our cozy Private Escape for Two or enjoying the entire Guest Suite with family and friends, mornings are peaceful and unhurried.
There are no crowded hotel hallways or busy city streets—just the quiet charm of our little village.
Explore Everything Wakefield Has to Offer
Gather Around the Fire
Some of our guests tell us their favourite part of the stay isn't an attraction at all.
It's spending the evening together around the fire.
Roast marshmallows, enjoy a glass of wine, watch the stars come out, and simply enjoy each other's company.
Our private deck and outdoor fireplace offer the perfect place to unwind, while our large shared backyard has plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. Families often make use of the volleyball net, trampoline, and open green space while the adults relax nearby.
Sometimes the best vacation memories come from doing very little.
Bring Everyone Together
Wakefield may be small, but it's full of wonderful places to discover.
Spend the day wandering through local boutiques, visiting art galleries, enjoying riverside parks, or stopping for lunch at one of the village's cafés and restaurants.
Don't forget to walk across the famous covered bridge, one of Wakefield's most photographed landmarks.
If you're feeling more adventurous, hiking and cycling trails are only minutes away, and Centre Vorlage offers excellent mountain biking throughout the summer.
With a fully equipped kitchen, spacious dining area, comfortable living rooms, laundry facilities, and plenty of outdoor space, it's designed for spending quality time together.
Looking for a Romantic Escape?
Planning a family getaway or a weekend with friends?
Our Full Guest Suite comfortably accommodates up to six guests, with additional sleeping options—including a futon in the downstairs living area, a double bed in the yoga room, and extra mattresses available—allowing groups of up to ten guests when needed.

If your idea of a perfect weekend is slowing down together, our Private Escape for Two offers everything you need.
Cook breakfast together, curl up beside the fireplace, enjoy a quiet evening on your private deck, or simply disconnect from busy schedules for a couple of days.
Sometimes the best getaway isn't about seeing more.
It's about doing less.
Make Time for Yourself
Many guests choose to make their stay even more relaxing by booking an on-site massage or facial at Ouroboros Wellness.
Imagine finishing a morning hike or bike ride, then returning for a restorative massage before spending the evening around the fire.
It's the kind of self-care that's hard to find in everyday life.
We Can't Wait to Welcome You
Whether you're planning a romantic weekend, a family vacation, or simply a few quiet days away, summer is one of the most beautiful times to experience Wakefield.
We hope you'll slow down, breathe deeply, and make yourself at home.
We look forward to welcoming you to L'Auberge des Collines.
