Greg and I toured all the roads around Kensington yesterday in order to find the Woodleigh Replicas. We finally found the property after asking an older clerk at Tim Horton's in Kensington, who got the directions almost right (but turn at Burlingon!).
Joanna and I visited Woodleigh a quarter of a century ago - now doesn't that seem a lot longer than 25 years ago!!! We had lots of fun touring the castles etc.
The propert is a bit spooky - all the trees have grown so tall. Another couple - from Montreal - rode up on their Harley -Davidson. They remembered going there as children.
We took some pictures which I'll post later once we get home. There is a big sign offering people a chance to "be part of history " or some such wording and buy lots there. The property dates from 1867, so the For Sale sign says. I fear the replicas may succumb to demolition by neglect. That would be too bad.
