Secluded Paradise

Beautiful comfy cottage in the woods. Quiet location. Roomy bedroom. Had everything we needed. We loved the personal touches and especially the greeting cookies/wine. Wonderful spot to observe wildlife (deer and birds). Rosalie and George were very responsive. Next time we are in the area we will be back.

A magical retreat

Rosalie & Greg's cottage on the South Shore of Nova Scotia was everything we had hoped for - a quiet, private retreat. It seems totally isolated, but was just a short drive to Lunenburg and other areas. The pictures on their website are completely accurate; everything was top of the line and beautiful! We spent hours bird watching & sitting by the fire pit (burning was allowed after 7pm) and enjoyed having a few deer drop by for a visit. The well water, as stated on their site, does have a mineral smell, especially in the (beautiful) shower, but the odor doesn't linger, and the drinking water dispenser worked perfectly. We definitely recommend this property & would go back again if we were in the area.

About the host

We are originally from Newfoundland but have made the South Shore of Nova Scotia our retirement location. We enjoy exploring, relaxing and spending time together. We take pride in our property and are always looking for ways to make your stay enjoyable. We are located close (short drive) to the cottage so can be very responsive for any concerns that may arise. We are both professionals - Rosalie worked as a Registered Nurse for many years and George worked for Parks Canada in Visitor Services and Interpretation.
