Oliver Plan your perfect staycation at Burrowing Owl Jenna Hickman
As the days get colder and winter settles in, the perfect evening arguably consists of sitting by a crackling fire, wrapped in a blanket, with a glass of delicious wine. Burrowing Owl Estate Winery is just the winery to make that perfect evening a reality.
Burrowing Owl Guest House
With international travel at a standstill, the Guest House at Burrowing Owl Estate Winery, located in Oliver, is the ideal place for a serene getaway this winter. With private views of the vineyard, a fireplace in each room, and just steps away from the wine shop and the estate restaurant, The Sonora Room, you’ll have everything you need within walking distance.
Safe Dining
If you’re looking for a memorable experience, but aren’t looking to stay the night, The Sonora Room should be at the top of your list. One of the first restaurants in the South Okanagan to require their staff to wear masks, The Sonora Room is taking every precaution to ensure the safety of their staff and guests. “Fall and winter are such exciting culinary seasons,” says Kerri McNolty, vice-president of marketing at Burrowing Owl. “All of the hearty flavours represented in our dishes pair so well with these robust reds that we’re known for.” Additionally, The Sonora Room features Burrowing Owl library wines that are no longer publicly available for sale.
Shop Online for Wine
