Breakfast was simply outstanding with choice of hot options and many jams to put on your toast. Location was also excellent with a good pub opposite and several other restaurants within a short walk in a very picturesque town. Nothing
- Phil (7/5): Owners very likeable. Breakfast very good. - Owners were great. Location very good. Breakfast exceptional. For the price(off season) we found rooms very small but quaint.

- Debbie (10/5): A great stay in a beautiful part of Nova Scotia! - Great location. Mahone Bay is the perfect location for day trips in the area. The property itself is a lovely old house with a garden and sitting area outdoors in the back and two sitting rooms indoors- one each on the first and second floor. Nothing. Super comfortable- great breakfast and Michael and Tom are wonderful hosts.
- Terry (10/5): -
- Barb (9/5): Beautiful and welcoming - Michael and Thomas were excellent hosts. Communication was easy and prompt. They happily provided a wine chiller when we brought a bottle of wine from our car. Wine and rocks glasses, cards and books were available in the reading nook upstairs near the rooms.
Our queen bedroom and private bath were comfortable and included a hair dryer, books, two chairs, luggage racks, a flat screen tv, and window air conditioner.
A delightful breakfast served family style at their beautiful dining room table included fresh berries, yogurt, cereal, juices, homemade jams, toast, smoked salmon and your selection of hot foods such as pancakes, eggs, and meats.
Mahone Bay is a cute town with a few shops and a local pub, and it's located less than 10 miles from Lunenberg, where more restaurants, shops and tourist attractions are available. We took the carriage ride, which was a lot of fun. Note that all shops close at 5 pm. Very firm pillows
- Shesha (10/5): I highly recommend that anyone stay there. - The host was very welcoming, and the breakfast provided was excellent.
- Lisa (10/5): Lovely B&B! - The room and en-suite bathroom were so cute and very clean. The hosts were wonderful and accommodating and had a really nice breakfast for us.

We would definitely stay here again.
