Tour writer John Gray’s West Coast cottage

Explore this gorgeous cottage, built in sections on the side of a cliff on British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast. This year-round retreat, once owned by former Canadian politician Svend Robinson, provides the perfect vantage point to take in the surrounding scenery of trees and mountains, which block out the nearby town of Sechelt.

You can learn more about John Gray and his West Coast cottage in the July issue of Cottage Life magazine.
