Welcome to Dashwood Meadows! We are located in Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island. This is a hobby farm with sheep, mini goats, donkey, dog and cat. We grow berries, plums, cherries, nuts and wildflowers. Child-friendly and family friendly environment. You can walk the labyrinth of forest trails nearby. There is a beach 9 km from the farm. Lakes, rivers, waterfalls, provincial parks, caves, golf courses, children's playgrounds and country markets, all within less than an hour's drive. In Qualicum Beach, you will find amazing sandy beaches, picture-perfect views, world-class biking and hiking trails, salt-tinged ocean air, and the small town charm of our communities. Seeing goats on a roof, exploring underground caves, strolling endless beaches at low tide, and walking among ancient old-growth forests are just some of the experiences you’ll be able to tell your friends about back home.

Site 1 Flower garden
We came for a little weekend getaway and it was perfect! The owners were super nice and friendly as well as all the animals. We especially loved the donkey and goats as they came right up to us! Site 1 was further away from the bathroom but was more private as we were the only ones in the "enclosure". The farm was also very close to Qualicum Beach so we were able to see a lot in one day!

Site 1 Flower garden
The flower garden is a lovely spot to set up camp. Friendly hosts and very welcoming. Site is very clean and cared for. There is water on site and a composting toilet. A short drive away from Qualicum beach. We would definitely book again.

Great spot to camp!
Such a pleasure tent camping here. Amanda is a gracious and considerate host. Great spot to relax after a day of touring the island. Level ground, water, firewood, outhouse, and enough trees to string up a tarp for when it rains. Great place for grounding and for getting away from all the overcrowded campgrounds in the area. Highly recommend.

Had an amazing night @ Amanda’s! Spiro (Speero?) was the cutest walking buddy, when exploring the property. Great experience seeing all the adorable animals, and we will miss Flip and Flop :) hopeful to return in the future and see the animals again!
