This felt like a hidden gem. Peaceful and beautifully manicured property on the Ocean with many spots to sit comfortably and enjoy the view and serenity. Dined at the property and the meals were 5 star as well.

This was an unexpected find close to pugwash which we needed. When we arrived , the owner was expecting us , showed us right to our room. What was unexpected was the property itself. Absolutely beautiful gardens with a walking trail , lovey pond , private beach. After our li g drive we lived walking down to the water in the beautiful setting. Would stay again for sure

10/10 Excellent

Easy walk to the beach. Marvin (welcome committee cat) comfortable rooms with AC, fridge, comfy bed, nice clean rooms and showers, gardens to explore, outside seating with propane fire table. And the food is Gourmet delicious! The Chefs should have a Michelin star. The scallops and vegetables, scones/bread, lemon meringue pie - the best we’ve ever had! We highly recommend!
Jo-Ann, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We stayed our last night in Nova Scotia at the Amherst Shore Country Inn. It’s family owned and had a nice welcoming feel to it. Mary was so helpful and nice. The room was very nice and comfortable, the property is beautiful, right on the water, and the main part of the inn is cozy. It was a little rainy but we put on our rain gear and explored the grounds. Not only are the grounds beautiful but there are places to sit, to play games, and just relax. Our entire experience was delightful!
Debora, 1-night trip

A stunning “find.” Beautifully designed and meticulously cared for. Our highest recommendation. The strolls down to the water, through the meadow were enchanting, calming and easy.

This was a gem ! Mary was absolutely wonderful and made us feel right at home . We had dinner that was delicious . It was a three course , homemade meal with homemade bread and dessert . The breakfast was divine with homemade scones and blueberry pancakes and eggs . The rooms were clean and quant . We were able to walk down to the beach and enjoy the ocean . They even had a little gazebo and private beach . Very charming and lovely .
Marykatherine, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Beautiful and rather secluded location. Sadly they do not serve dinner except Thursday-Sunday, this means you need to drive 20-30 minutes for dinner on M/Tu/W. The breakfast was very good , but limited selection. The furniture in the chalets were old and cushions were uncomfortable.
Steven, 2-night trip

A family owned gem of a place

What a delightful stay! This 3rd generation family inn is located on the beautiful, quiet Northumberland Strait of Nova Scotia. The water is warmer there, the sand is solid and safe for wading or swimming. We stayed in a cabin with a kitchenette, expecting to make our own breakfasts. But after having breakfast there the first morning, we enjoyed it so much we decided to buy their delicious, homemade breakfasts every morning of our stay in their beautifully appointed dining room. We were there one evening when they served dinner and it was equally as delicious and lovely. If you are looking for a quiet, private spot with the option of either cook your own meals or enjoy their cooking, consider this place.
John, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

I’ve never posted a bad review, and I realize this might be out of their control….but There were literally DOZENS of mosquitoes in my room. I couldn’t fall asleep til 2am cause I had to try and get rid of them. And I still got bitten over and over all night long.
