It's a beautiful OLD inn, and the management was very welcoming and helpful. The room was small with old furniture, etc., but clean. Very quiet near the bay.

Loved the homey feel of the house. We were the only ones at the inn and the owner had to leave but left us keys and even made a microwave available to warm up food we brought. We were able to hang out in the evening in the front sunroom and relax. Nicest evening of our week in Nova Scotia ao far.

Manager was very friendly and accommodating. Property was advertised as having a pool table and bar…not so. Very clean. Sunroom a bit musty smelling (smelled like my grandparents home when I was a kid lol) but the rest of the B&B was very nice. Overall a great experience.

Old world charm!

Beautiful old home being used as a b&b. yes it needs updating on the outside but inside it’s full of old world charm. The manager (I’m sorry I forgot her name) was absolutely wonderful to me as I locked myself out of the room late at night and she woke up to give me a spare key. I was even allowed to wash my motorcycle a bit before I left. Pleasant stay!

No issues checking in. Surroundings were beautiful. There is a beautiful beach nearby. It was very quiet and felt very safe. Hostess was very sweet and kind and she accommodated us with an early continental breakfast. The room was hot (there is no air conditioning) and normally, where this inn is on the water, it would have been cooler but the temperatures of late had been elevated. Wifi was included but was spotty.

Well... It is called "Olde" for a reason. It is old. That does not mean it's awful or terrible. Incredible service there and the room was very spacious. Only thing I would have loved is Air conditionner.

There’s no place to eat you have to drive back 1/2 hr to Digby. The continental breakfast was really poor. Power went out and there was no water. So there isn’t a generator to supply water

I love them exterior .Inside the sunroom was nice and the dining room. Old furnishings were nice. They placed smelled unbearably musty. Upstairs the room had not a breath of air , the window i finally got open. Television consisted of 1 channel. Breakfast was a joke considering what I paid. Host was friendly at first but seriously does not like her job. I will not stay again.
