Cunard House is even more spacious than it appears in the photos. A beautiful, warm, well-restored home, equipped with all one needs for a pleasant stay. We especially enjoyed sitting on the front verandah with our morning coffees, the ocean in full view. Ron met us to check-in and gave us helpful information about the house and area. Very impressive what they have achieved in restoring Cunard House. We'd return in a heart beat.

Ron was so nice and met us when we got into town, very very nice guy. Things that were great for me is two ice trays in the freezer because I love my ice! And Kleenex and the laundry facilities. There was enough coffee and filters that I didn’t even have to bring any. We loved this place and can definitely recommend it!!!

We had a wonderful stay at Cunard House. What an awesome location. Pictou is a beautiful town. It’s picturesque, the people are so friendly, and the food is good. We could not have asked for better hosts. Hope to visit again.

Well maintained and beautiful. Had the best time sitting on front porch looking at the ocean talking to everyone as they walked by. Our host Ron was wonderful. A fountain of local information. Would go back again in a heartbeat.

It was a wonderful place to stay..very clean and everything we needed for a lovely holiday..It had a balcony to sit out on and watch the boats in the harbour. Little shops across the street sold very nice hand crafted gifts. I wish VRBO could make it easier for clients to contact the owner before arrival. The owner was very kind and personable and very good to deal with. We would certainly stay there again.
