As a host of another property in Vermont we’ve seen it all and these hosts go above and beyond to make your stay amazing! We very much enjoyed our time there, the house was spotless, the kitchen was well maintained and had everything we needed to cook. The heated pool was clean and very relaxing at night and was a big hit with the kids! Easy access to the bike trails and Chester was an added bonus! Thanks again for having us.

Fantastic villa!

The villa is very spacious and enjoyed we our stay in a very comfortable and welcoming house. The view is breathtaking, kids and adults spent countless time in the warm pool but as well enjoyed walking down the stairs to swim in the Ocean. Owner was very helpful to find local gems and the pool staff cam write away to clean the pool when requested. We will definitely go back there for our next stay in Nova Scotia.

Lovely

Serenity and comfort in a cozy place large enough to host multiple families. Location is perfect for a private getaway yet still have access to restaurants, the ocean, biking and walks. Just beautiful. The host was very responsive, respectful and friendly. The house was clean with a couple of unwashed clothing items left from past guest and the dishwasher doesn't do a great job. Overall, we loved it, would stay here again and recommend it to all ages.

Beautiful property and access to Chester. The house was very clean. One room had a soiled duvet and duvet cover. No extra blankets were avaliable. Housekeeping showed up without letting us know and didn't return so the duvet wasn't replaced. We washed the duvet cover. We booked this property for 10 days, and we were very disappointed that the pool was not useable until the last day.

As renter noted they were not there for housekeeper to deal with their concerns and they were given the cleaners number, name, and told to contact them to arrange a time the renter would be available. The renter was simply not happy with a seawater pool although this information was clearly supplied with the information they received prior to their rental

Wonderful large cottage

We stayed at seagull cottage with a large family (3 adults, 4 kids from 10-15). The cottage was huge, lots of space for everyone. There is even a small separate apt kitchen, entrance, and bed room (this mini appartement can be closed off if you wanted it to be, but we didn’t). Lots of space for everyone to have alone time but big enough to have dinner together and watch movies! The pools was a great addition and we enjoyed relaxing around it when not sightseeing. We went to some beaches with beautiful sand and rock pools. About 20 mins drive or so. Nice balance of quiet time and easy access to Halifax, beaches, tourist destinations.

Great location lots of room

Listing is a bit inaccurate but there is plenty of space. Place was pretty clean but the pool wasn't clean when we showed up and it took a couple of days for it to be cleaned all the way before we cpule use it. There is no shower in the master, there is two other showers in the other bathrooms. There is no hot tub, just a jacuzzi style tub in the master bath. Lighting in the house isnt great which gives the place an older feel. Location is amazing, great views, good spot to paddle board or kayak from. Take advantage of the public path near the house to walk to chester.

Thank you for your review Carter. I will clarify the listing. Although the hot tub is described as a jetted master bedroom tub I will remove this as it causes confusion. I regret the pool being unusable on your arrival despite being cleaned the day before. NS has had some extreme weather events this year that have provided challenges.

About the host

Hosted by Jonathan Griffin

Host profile image
Kelly was born and raised in Nova Scotia while Jonathan grew up on Canada's west coast. Seagull was Kelly's family summer home. We continue to create wonderful times and memories at Seagull. With homes on both coasts we spread our time between these beautiful areas.

Why they chose this property

Seagull, as the photos attest, is an oasis: peaceful, private, comfortable, with amities such as the pool to relax in and enjoy the surroundings, or get in a few laps. It is minutes walking to the Chester Connection Trail: an old railway bed, part of the Rum Runners trail that extends 119 km from Halifax to Lunenberg; Great to walk or bike, north it leads 2 km into Chester where you find the Chester Playhouse, Sensea Nordic Spa, the Fo'c'sle Village Pub - the oldest pub in Nova Scotia (serving good grog and fare since 1761) to name a few attractions. It's clear why we are blessed to call this home

What makes this property unique

For those wanting to venture further Seagull is central to many of Nova Scotia's premier attractions - by car: Lunenberg is 30 minutes away; Peggy's Cove 45 minutes; Halifax and all it offers 45 minutes; the Bay of Fundy, Grand Pré (the heart of l'Acadie history) and Luckett Vineyard just 1 hour away .
