Very good

The check in was delightful. We were given helpful information on dining options and places to see around town. While we were not able to stay for breakfast, one was offered for those who didn’t have to leave a the break of dawn. The hotel had a cozy common living space, plenty of parking, and was about 300 metres from an ev charging station. Our room was on the top floor and despite being in the middle of an intense heat wave, we only needed to open the windows to get a beautiful breeze- no need for the air conditioner that was in the room!
I like a quiet place with history. Loved the little community and the "grandmas house " feeling during my stay . I will definitely be back !

Home was beautiful and staff lovely. We stayed on the third floor and our only concern was the water pressure, and the fact that it took quite sometime for the water to get hot. Overall a very nice stay!
What a fantastic spot. Character of infrastructure in the building in general, the main floor and property amenities including the eating/breakfast area and the room itself. Linda, the owner operator, is a extraordinary woman you are better off having met. I would stay again in this wonderful place and enjoy the comfy setting the next time I am in town.
Clean spacious room. Comfortable bed, great staff. The only negitive was the breakfast. We were expecting a full breakfast, bacon, sausage, etc. There were hard boiled eggs, muffins and fruit.
What a lovely hotel. This is the first hotel in Pictou and it is gorgeous. The entire hotel is gorgeous, our room was wonderful and the breakfast was nice. The only downsize is that there is no elevator so it was alot of steps to get to the first floor room.

A Perfect Seaside Stay with Old World Charm
We had the absolute pleasure of staying at this charming boutique hotel nestled in a beautiful historical home nearly a century old. From the moment we arrived, we were swept away by the old English character that runs through every detail of the house: beautiful vintage décor, wood floors, and an unmistakable sense of timeless elegance.
Our room was adorable, spotless, and full of personality. We were especially lucky to have a corner unit that offered breathtaking views of both the sea and the surrounding forest—a truly rare treat. Waking up to the sound of waves and birdsong was something special.
The host and owner was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. They offered excellent recommendations for local restaurants.
This place is a hidden gem, perfect for anyone who appreciates the beauty of historical buildings, thoughtful hospitality, and that unmistakable old English charm. We’re already dreaming of our next visit.
Highly recommended!
Property was not as advertised, run down, staff was not personable, or available, lack of hot water, continental breakfast was less than basic, we could not wait to leave.
Very quaint and beautiful. Old but nicely kept by the owners, clean, comfortable, quiet. Excellent continental breakfast, I would definitely go back. Some wildlife on the Inn’s grounds

Charming old hotel with some updates to the rooms. We were on the 2nd of 3 floors. There is virtually no sound proofing between floors.
