About this property

Comfortable beach villa by the sea, 6.5 hours Direct flight from Frankfurt

The Yellownose House is located directly on a 350m long private beach with a view of the river delta. From the beach, it's easy to pull the kayak into the sea or fish for dinner with a large family Canadian. Because of the special location at the mouth of the river in the Atlantic, no fishing license is required. The large sandy beach and the sheltered shallow bay at the house is particularly suitable for children. If this house is occupied, there is the identical "Bluenose House" next door, also for holidays together. Please ask. We are also happy to undertake fishing trips in our motor boat or sailing boat trips with instructions (if desired).
The special thing about this house is the location without a view of electricity pylons, wind turbines etc. You are completely private to yourself and yet there is a hospital a few minutes away (which is usually associated with long journeys to this region) and a 15-minute drive is Port Hawkesbury, the "capital" of Cape Breton. On You Tube you will find videos and aerial photos of the "Yellownose House"

Relaxing Getaway

The Yellownose house was such a good find and exactly what I needed. It is waterfront and surrounded by woods. It was incredibly relaxing. If you’re looking to get away from hustle and bustle and be in nature then this is the place. I would definitely come back. Bob was also very helpful in giving recommendations for things to do in the area.

Off the beaten path

The wife was looking for someplace secluded and she found it here. The place was nice and clean. Not much to do but walk the beach which was close and private. The ad should have in bold letters there’s no TV, cellular coverage is very poor and the included internet is weak and spotty. The building is located on the coast but for most of the property you would not know it. Trees are overgrown and block the views of the water except for a couple spots on the deck and from the loft upstairs. It’s is in need of some TLC outside. Property manager stopped by, nice guy, nothing he can do about the overgrown property as it’s owned by someone else who doesn’t want any trees cut. I understand the issues with coastal erosion but you are paying for views that don’t exist.

Thanks Ross for your detailed review. I offered to cut some trees while you where there but I understand you didn't want the chain saw bothering you, so I cut trees after you left and now you have a nice view to the whale cove at least. Owner coming this fall I will figuring something out and convince with your wording. I keep the internet in mind as well.

We were delighted to spend a week in the Yellow House on the water. We had a beautiful private location, surrounded by ocean coves and bays with rocky beaches. 2 mile dirt road with 1/4 mile dirt driveway enhanced our privacy, except for the local deer, bunnies and birds. Beautiful wildflowers in bloom everywhere! We chose this location for our access throughout Cape Breton - highlights of Cabot Trail and Louisburg Fortress National Historic Site. No TV required us to relax, check our phones for news and family updates. Located near enough to Port Hawkesbury for urban needs (tire repair, food shopping, gas, car wash etc). We highly recommend that you bring paper maps and information, as much of Cape Breton is without GPS / cell service (SOS only) and 3G occasionally. Cape Breton has been on our "bucket list" for years -- this VRBO rental was the perfect complement to our trip. Thank you!

End of summer getaway

I stayed at the Yellownose with my husband and two teenagers and it was everything we were hoping for! Very much off the beaten track but a good base for exploring Cape Breton Island. We loved being at the end of a private lane on our own little point of land, swimming off our own pebble beach, and admiring the gorgeous view from the beautiful deck. The house was spotlessly clean when we arrived, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. Our only small constructive suggestion would be improved airflow in the loft, which was very hot; but the main floor gets a lovely breeze. We would definitely stay here again.

Location, house and accessories excellent.

The house and location are excellent: very quiet and isolated yet only 15 minutes away from a large grocery store and other services. A great base for exploring Cape Breton and north eastern Nova Scotia. Great views of the ocean on a sheltered bay with a private gravel beach and water is warm enough for swimming. We would have liked to stay longer.

Natur pur in einem Top-Haus

Das Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet und bietet mit seinen riesigen Glasfronten einen super Blick auf die Flora und Fauna (Seeadler!) der Umgebung. Auf der umlaufenden Terrasse kann man seinen Gedanken freien Lauf lassen.

About the host

Hosted by Bob

Host profile image
We (an experienced skipper couple) came across the Atlantic and immigrated in 2012. We love to explore the numerous dreamy bays, swim and get our dinner ourselves, fishing mackerels and collecting mussels.
We don’t offer standard vacations. We love to share our enthusiasm and joy and want to cooperate with you to understand your needs and wishes and to tailor the best possible experience, on our Trimarans as well.
We can, for example, admire the beautiful bald eagles flying above us and the stunning sunsets.
Do not hesitate to talk to us if we dropped our anchor in our favorite anchorage nearby and have time for your and our stories....

Why they chose this property

The islands give shelter, but you are right at the open Atlantic with a nice breeze, the bay offers perfect swimming and „Ocean`s Playground“, kayaking, fishing

What makes this property unique

It is very easy to pull the big canoe from the sandy point into the River Inhabitants and enjoy fishing your own dinner. Particular for kids the bay offers perfect swimming and „Ocean`s Playground“.
