The story behind The Fieldstone Retreat and Glasshouse starts with its founder, John Van Capelle. Growing up in his family’s greenhouses, surrounded by rows of vibrant plants, John developed a deep appreciation for beauty and the art of nurturing growth. His journey led him to move and re-build The Glasshouse from its original location in Niagara by hand, turning his passion into a breathtaking glass sanctuary that honours his family’s legacy and his lifelong connection to the land.
The Glasshouse itself is a modern masterpiece, blending sleek architecture with the surrounding 15-acre property. Its floor-to-ceiling windows flood the area with natural light, offering panoramic views of the countryside and the nearby escarpment.
Beyond the stunning Glasshouse, The Fieldstone Retreat prides itself on offering a seamless, stress-free getaway unlike any other for its guests.

More than just a ‘venue’, The Glasshouse and Fieldstone Retreat is a living legacy—a tribute to the craftsmanship, dedication, and love that built it. This unique location provides a breathtaking setting where your story can unfold in a truly unforgettable way.
