"Staff was very accommodating. Michael helped us greatly with parking directly outside the Inn and he recommended The Ovens restaurant which turned out to be a great evening of excellent food, drink and music"

Lighthouse Lane Cottages

8/10 Good

"Beautiful view of Peggy’s Cove"

Clifty Cove Motel

8/10 Good

"Very clean and comfortable room. Beautiful place and view, very quiet. Close to restaurants, grocery and Peggy's Cove. Unfortunately, our room #11 wasn't connecting to the Wi-Fi (other rooms seemed ok) so we couldn't watch TV. The manager kept repeating it was out of their control but didn't offer anything to compensate this lack of convenience :( So make sure you get what you pay for..."

"Absolutely incredible view Perfect location Staff incredibly helpful Would have liked to try the restaurant as what I saw looked delicious"

Miller House By the Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the art studio and it was absolutely adorable! It was way bigger than what we expected and was able to accommodate many guests. We only had three, but it comfortably could have slept five We were surprised by the full kitchen and how spacious it was. Super cute funky place to stay and it is located near all the amenities and shops. Thanks Margaret"

Black Forest Cabins

8/10 Good

"Nice staff with prompt response. However, garbage bin in the cabin was not emptied before our stay."

Bluenose Lodge

8/10 Good

"Beautiful and well maintained historic building. Lovely staff, delicious and elegant breakfast. Downside was our small, but cozy bedroom on the third floor with no elevator. Bathroom was so small that sink was in the bedroom. Overall we loved the two nights we spent at the Bluenose!"
