Greg & Belinda are magnificent hosts. This inn is a phenomenal place to stay - a beautiful location with so much great stuff close by. Accommodations are lovely and breakfast divine. They’re closing for the season now but if/when you get a chance to go you will not be disappointed!

Staying at this property felt like returning home. Greg, Belinda and Irene provided humor and warmth to our stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the food was plentiful and delicious. The property has old world charm mixed with beautiful artwork (much of which is created by the owners) and furnishings. There are several common sitting areas in which to read or chat. We didn't have time to partake of the pool. Perhaps next time. It is just a short car ride to Digby and the St. John Ferry. This inn offered everything I had hoped to find. I hope to return!

The innkeepers are great. The breakfast is excellent, my only complaint was that my room did not have a chair, and I had brought something back to my room to eat, a bit inconvenient. Just a simple wooden chair would have been helpful.

How come you can only do 5 stars when you would give 10. Owner met us at door as we checked in, complete tour and all information needed. Beautiful B&B, beautiful ground, everything done to perfection. Outdoor pool is large enough for many to be in with aquatic toys provided. Our room, I mean apartment was wonderful, even creamers provided for the coffee maker. Our unit clean and with 2 bedrooms, room available if needed. Owner looks after their property with a lot of pride and could teach other's in the business, how it is done. Tried to stay extra but no vacancy. Why would their be when so much is offered.

This is quite simply a wonderful environment, made ever better by people who genuinely care, and go out of their way to make your stay special. Not everywhere would think to offer your kids their own special pancakes complete with fruit & veggie cat faces...just because! I wish I could give them a higher rating.
