Anniversary Trip

You could not ask for a better host than Claire! She was so kind to us during our stay. The house was just as described and the perfect place for us to stay for our 30th anniversary trip to Nova Scotia. The views were amazing, the beds were so comfortable and we enjoyed the cozy fire. The deck was the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. Nearby Polly's Cove is a beautiful hike. We highly recommend this property!

What a beautiful place! Cute cottage, wonderful views and great location. Claire, owner, was so easy to deal with, answering all questions and giving suggestions for restaurants and activities in the area. Very clean and our bed was super comfortable. It was a delightful visit to this charming cottage…. And to meet Claire! (Paul, her husband was out of town.)

Adorable seaside cottage!

We had a wonderful time at this beautifully decorated little gem- it was the highlight of our Canadian vacation! The bedrooms and living areas were super comfortable and super charming, and the location couldn't have been better. How fun to start each day with coffee on the deck overlooking the cove, or a walk to the lighthouse and back. Would definitely stay here again!

Simply Beautiful

My parents and I spent 4 nights at this idyllic seaside home on our Nova Scotia visit.The exterior, WOW, you would find a hilltop home like this in a fairy tale book. The location is perfect, at the back of the village in an elevated spot overlooking the small harbour with a view of the top of the famous lighthouse. At night the red glow of the light is easily seen from all windows.The home is on green land with many beautiful plants and a multitude of bird species serenade you as you enjoy the deck watching the boats in the harbour.Want to walk to the lighthouse? It's barely five minutes from your backdoor - Hot Tip - go before 8am and you'll have the lighthouse to yourself for the best photographs without a tourist in sight - bar yourself that is!!Inside a respectfully decorated, cosy home, in keeping with the area and its history. Comfortable beds with nice linens, plenty of towels and everything you could want from your home from homes. Tip, bring Keurig Cups for the coffee maker and you're good to go!Minor point, suggestion, keep a couple of windows open as the fresh air makes the inside feel fresh and relaxed.There are a handful of food options within a few minutes walk, as long as seafood is your thing. Another tip, less than an hour away we found a pub in Mahone Bay called the Mug and Anchor which we loved and returned to again!Peggys Cove is stunning in its own right , but also an excellent base to explore the area. We ventured as far as Keji Harbour Rocks!

We had such a wonderful time at this wonderful, lovely cottage by the sea. We loved the historic charm of this beautiful home! Claire is the kindest, friendliest, most helpful host ever! The location is outstanding and the view out of every window looks like a picture postcard. Peggy's Cove is the quintessential seaside fishing village and we loved every minute of our time there. We would love to come back and stay again!

Fabulous!

We loved Peggy's Cove Cottage. Fabulous views of the Cove, a great coffee shop for our morning brew and wonderful hiking nearby. Claire was friendly and helpful, and the whole community felt very welcoming. Loved the open fire for the chilly nights and the grill for delish steaks! Am missing waking up to the seagulls here in Manhattan.

A full horizon of ocean views...with a lighthouse!

A very nice and character laden house, nicely situated above a small fishing cove. Very special. Claire is a very friendly host and has done a nice job of renovating and outfitting this small house for guests. Outstanding views of the fishing cove and the ocean beyond. Overall outstanding.

Beautiful and cozy gem!

This cozy cottage and its setting is idyllic. Amazing views from each room. A beautiful home decorated with such care and thoughtful touches throughout. So very comfortable in every aspect - the perfect place to curl up with a book and periodically look out to enjoy the beauty of this place. Kitchen well equipped and all that we could have needed. I will definitely miss this incredible mix of beauty and comfort. - I was fortunate to meet Claire, the most gracious and fun hostess. Had the opportunity to have conversations with her and she is the picture of delight. Thank you Claire (and Paul) for your vision of this house that you so lovingly restored.

Absolutely Beautiful

My sisters and I stayed for a girls weekend away, and this cottage was perfect! The views were amazing, especially from the front deck. The cottage was cozy and very comfortable, with plenty of space for relaxing. We enjoyed delicious lobster from Ryers lobster pound just down the road, and all the quaint shops within walking distance to the cottage. The owners, Claire and Paul, were lovely to deal with and obviously take great pride in their cottage. It's definitely a home away from home. We loved it!
