Overview
If you are looking for a remote, yet well-located retreat, these six gorgeous, cedar-shingled cottages are perfect for a week-long getaway. Perched high above the ocean with epic views and sea sounds, these are some of the most spectacular vistas in all of Cape Breton.
In the cottages, summer evenings are cool –great for sleeping– and are often accompanied by brilliant sunsets. Lobster boats haul in their catch out front, whales and eagles pass by, seals pop up in front to check you out, and other wildlife provides distraction as you figure out how to spend your day. Beaches? Hiking? Fine Dining? Music? All close at hand…
The Master bedrooms at these cottages offer comfortable Queen beds and many also have a second bedroom for the kids or another adult. There’s all the kitchen equipment you need to prepare a feast from local specialties. These cottages also offer complete privacy, complete comfort, great amenities like fibre-op high speed/wiFi, BBQ’s, private parking and big decks. All this on a beautiful property with spring-fed brooks, just two minutes from great beaches, five minutes to the Cabot Trail, a half hour from the National Park, and twenty minutes from two of the world’s finest golf courses at Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs.
