The wine itself was fabulous but what made it even more enjoyable was our guide, Colleen. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area (Halifax, Gaspereau Valley, and Annapolis Valley) and the wineries. She went above and beyond to make sure that we all enjoyed ourselves, including stopping at an overlook for some quick pics and a farmer's market for some extra snacks. I would highly recommend this tour and would do it again if ever returning to the area.

But i thoroughly enjoyed this historic brewery and their history. Several tastes were included and ended in a "pub" for a Scottish gathering and a couple more samples.

While the location is beautiful and the staff were wonderful, this isn't our favourite winery in the province. We did a tasting which was awkwardly presented in shot glasses which we found quite tacky. Nothing in the tasting really stood out and we didn't end up buying a bottle of anything because the tastings are set. You can't really choose off the menu because not everything is available to try. We came for the annual Christmas in Petite, so it was quite busy and many wines weren't available which was a bummer. It would have been nice to select our own options to sample as there is a cost, so not sure we'll make the trip down from the Valley unless it's another annual event. The terrace is really lovely but the furniture could use some updating. Some cute bistro sets would be nice instead of overly bulky chairs and benches that are tough to move. Service was great and friendly so no complaints there. Overall, still worth visiting for location and the scenery, but as wine drinkers, this is pretty low on our list of faves simply because there wasn't much to try that we were interested in.

We were warmly welcomed and shown up to our room after a tour of the common areas. The sitting room on the main floor is just lovely and had many books for browsing with a cup of evening tea. Our room was small but comfortable and the canopy bed provided some "wow" factor. The original fireplace, tiled floor and decor were nice unexpected touches. The breakfast room was huge with a small pub area, and offered private restaurant style table seating (which is nice for those who aren't morning people and wanting to make new best friends at 8am with a table full of talkative strangers). The big windows let in the light and the view. We were offered the choice of made to order hot breakfasts (french toast, or eggs & bacon) and there was a long table set out with continental offerings that we were able to help ourselves to as well. Delicious!

Let me tell you, planning an international vacation for about 60 people is not easy. Judy, the owner at the Boscawen, made the process so much better. She was so stellar. Gave us amazing recommendations for other local vendors, like kayaking, tours, food, catering, etc. And they were all perfect! Judy and John, her husband, were the most gracious hosts. Basically, anything we needed, they provided without hesitation. Judy and I even planned a surprise event for everyone and it went off without a hitch! Now onto the lodging, my hubby and I stayed in room 305 and it was everything we could ever want! For all of the rooms, which I got to take a gander at because we had rented out the entire place, they were so precious. The website truly does not do the Boscawen Inn justice. Everything is immaculate, clean, and every detail was perfection. Honestly, I can't wait until we get to go back. Thank you Judy and John!!!!

The place had four customers. We sat down and the waitress came over and took our drink order which was a tequila cocktail and a Peroni, both on the menu but the waitress came back saying she had neither the Peroni nor Tequila. Advice 1, get some Tequila or you're not a real bar/restaurant. The menu is pretty pretentious. They charge 35 dollars for a 6oz rib steak... that's barely even a real steak. I stared at the menu for a long time and finally after reading it ten times we settled on the cheesy bread thing, and mussels to start, the spaghetti and single meatball a gin replacement to the tequila and a Keith's. The cheesy bread thing was covered in tomatoes and they leaked cold juice into the bread and made it a cold juicy wet diaper. The Mussels were like whoever made them didn't really give a damn. There is so much you can do with Mussels, do a yummy sauce with a nice splash of Tidal Bay. Not here. I've seen a lunch truck do a better plate of mussels. The spaghetti really stole the show though. They claim House Made Pasta and a fresh giant meatball, the only giant meatball was me for ordering this mess. The pasta I'm almost sure was over cooked catelli. The sauce was either from a jar or tasted exactly like it was. Finally, the showstopper was the meatball. Bland with zero taste and not a salt shaker in sight. Like a champ I tried, I really tried to eat this bowl of Italian tragedy but the meatball was also burnt solid like a round disc at the bottom. I put it in my mouth and as I spit it back out onto a plate I realized simultaneously that it was unseasoned, overcooked, burnt, frozen then thawed out and probably microwaved. I know this because it was a texture of used to be burnt but now it's just semi solid wet almost crunchy and tasted like cat food (don't ask how I know what cat food tastes like, or a wet cold diaper for that matter, it was a long time ago). As I said I spit what was left out. I looked over at my Fiancé and saw her having a similar experience. The server came back asking how everything was tasting and I told her I spit out the meatball pointing at the remainder on the plate. She just took it away. We finished up our drinks we didn't want and then asked for the check. It arrived with the spaghetti still on it of course, no sense comping it and salvaging a possible second visit or the full tip. I paid a 10% on it but I should have gone down to 5% or less, and then we got up out of there. My Fiancé mentioned we should have just gotten McDonalds fries instead of paying 80 dollars for this trip to yuck town. So if you read down this far, you are either a masochist who still plans on a first hand experience or you are the owner. If the former, just go somewhere else, if you are the latter you are going to just be in denial which is sad because Fall River could desperately use a good restaurant and we were both saddened that this one isn't going to be it. Advice 2 Put a burger on the menu, your pretentious levels are way too high, and back again to Advice 1 Stock your bar it doesn't really spoil easy.
