Canadian John Porritt has swapped the English village lifestyle he moved to back in the seventies for the wilderness of the Canadian forest. Since selling his Internet banking systems company in 2000 which he set up in the 1990s he invested in holiday homes, namely log cabins. He researched the property market in Canada, and noted the relative success of the Humber Valley holiday cabin development in Newfoundland. He also noted the appetite for British buyers hunting something a bit different and rustic, and the appeal of large properties in open spaces close to nature.

John said:

‘There was clearly an appetite for large homes in big spaces next to nature,’

‘I thought if they can do it there (namely the Humer Valley Development), we can surely do it better here.’

He now employs his son as Managing Director of the company and daughter as Marketing and Events Director at the development which comprises 60 log homes of luxury and a clubhouse. The development is at Blueberry Lake, near Mont Tremblant in Quebec.
