Wonderful

The Inn is beautiful and near many restaurants. The hosts were wonderful and helped immensely with tips and suggestions for our trip to the Cabot Trail. Finally, the breakfast was fresh and tasty (loved the homemade croissants) and served by the one and only Scotsman in a kilt. Enjoyed our time there.
This place was very charming. The hosts were terrific. Very colorful and informative. Upon arrival, after we settled into our room we were invited to sit on their lovely deck and sip some homemade wine while meeting other arriving guests from all parts of the world. Fun experience.
Our host Sandy was great. He was very hospitable and knowledgeable.
Very good NS Scottish historian IMO.
He also provided many options for sightseeing.
The rooms were impeccable
Sandy and Cathy were very nice folks. The property was nice as well as interesting. Our room was very comfortable. A nice glass of wine from the hosts enable us to visit with the other guests. The hosted continental breakfast was a nice touch.
Innkeepers Sandy and Cathy personally renovated this historic building in the heart of downtown Pictou over the past ten years. Their excellent choices in finish, furniture, artwork, and appointments make this a very “Continental” hotel, a traditional bed and breakfast experience. Sandy excels at recommending dining and touring experiences within a short walk or short drive. The Northumberland Shore and Central Nova Scotia have myriad historic and up to date attractions, beautiful beaches, and excellent restaurants. We’re grateful to Sandy and Cathy both for introducing us to this delightful region.

Amazing, top class...friendly, lovely couple, quality rooms.
Honestly we are not Bed and Breakfast travelers, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The owners of the inn were very helpful and knowledgeable. They gave us directions to give us a more scenic drive to our next destination (so worth it!). The breakfast experience was lovely. Everyone joined in conversation and I learned so much about Canada and its provinces. The Scot’s man who runs the inn is a wealth of knowledge and is very entertaining! I would definitely stay again and would highly recommend!
We have been to Scotland and were hoping this inn would feel like we were back in the UK. We were not disappointed. The host, the accomodations, the decor and the atmospheric spirit were true to the Scottish tradition. We were very pleased.
The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The patio was lovely for relaxing and chatting with the hosts and other guests. Breakfast was very good. The only issue was the shower was small, but that is a very minor issue.
All round great experience. The owners are cordial and Nancy makes delicious breakfasts and helpful. Sandy makes you laugh in addition to being helpful
The Inn is tastefully furnished. Bedrooms are beautiful with all the lotions soft towels high end sheets
Would go back in a minute
Sandy and Kathy were great hosts!! They made us feel welcome and were very helpful recommending restaurants and places to go. A wonderful facility and great fresh breakfast.
We had a wonderful stay at The Scotsman! Cathy and Sandy were so friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Everything was provided for and the room was comfortable.
