Belfountain Estates and Farm Gate Shop
Take a peaceful retreat to Belfountain Estates, a scenic and sustainable farm nestled in the Niagara Escarpment. This carbon sink property is rooted in eco-friendly practices and features beautiful vineyards, lavender fields, and surrounding forest. Their farm gate shop offers a selection of seasonal goods, including fresh produce, eggs, honey, lavender bouquets, and more. The farm is also home to cows, ducks, chickens, sheep, and pigs, which can be seen as part of their guided farm tours. To protect the land and ensure a low-impact experience, animal visits are available by appointment only through small group tours.
Belfountain Conservation Area
Step into both nature and history when you enter Belfountain Conservation Area. This park is one of the most stunning spaces in Caledon. Take a walk on the suspension bridge that overlooks a rushing waterfall, or perhaps hike through the Niagara Escarpment. The historical features of this park include the terrace, Yellowstone Cave and the “belle” fountain which is over 100 years old. Belfountain Conservation Area was recently restored to help protect and manage the natural and cultural heritage of the property. It’s a place where stories of the past meet the beauty of the present.

Heatherlea Farm Shoppe is a must-stop for fresh, local flavours. Known for their top-quality grass-fed meats and handcrafted snacks made with clean ingredients, it’s the perfect spot to pick up something special or enjoy a farm-fresh meal right on site. Grab a seat on the licensed patio, where you can relax with a drink in hand while watching the cows graze in the nearby fields.
Spirit Tree Estate Cidery
Tucked away in Caledon’s countryside, Spirit Tree began as a dream to create something truly local and sustainable—and it’s now a cidery, bakery, bistro, and farm shop that draws visitors year-round. The building itself is a conversation starter, built from straw bales to reduce environmental impact. From cider tastings and orchard strolls to live music in the cider gardens, every part of the Spirit Tree experience celebrates local flavour, community, and the beauty of nature.
Terra Cotta Inn
When visiting Caledon, eating at the Terra Cotta Inn is a must-do. This restaurant’s menu options are wide, bringing you from Italian fine dining all the way to casual burgers. Set on a scenic plot with gardens along the Credit River, and built with well-preserved original stone walls and wooden beams, the environment of the Terra Cotta Inn is a real show-stopper. Between the spectacular service, cuisine and views-visit once and you’ll understand why this is one of Caledon’s greatest gems.
Coywolf Coffee and Lost Bear Market
Coywolf Coffee and Lost Bear Market are two charming spots in Inglewood that capture the essence of small-town charm. Just a short walk from each other and owned by the same friendly team, both places share a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere.
