    I reserve the 5 star rating…read more In order to get one from me you need to stand out. You need to want me thinking about returning almost as soon as I arrive. The Blair House most undoubtably deserves this rating, no question. A happen chance to find, we had to do a last minute drive from Halifax to St. Stephen and were too exhausted to make the return trip the same day. A combination of Tom Tom and Yelp said this little gem was less than 2km away from the border. No pictures, no reviews and no way of knowing what we'd find we gave a call. The owner David answered despite the lateness of the evening and said he indeed had one room available and we could come right on over. First off David may be one of the nicest people I've met in a long time. He didn't hesitate to spend a little time getting to know us even though it was well past "guest hours". At 9p at night he advised us to go out and find some food then return and take care of the paperwork...seriously who does that? The house. I won't even try to describe it. I can't do it justice. It's divine. Trust me. The room. We were given the only room on the main floor so I can't speak to the other rooms but this one was lovely. Queen size bed with super comfy bedding (the kind that makes you want to stay under covers all day). Extremely clean and stocked with those scratchy kind of towels you Canadians seem to love so much...oh the reason for the scratchiness? Yhea that's because they hang those towels out fresh on the line to dry all year round (as permissible). A lovely personal touch if you ask me. We woke up the next morning and sat down to a delicious home prepared breakfast of which David took before retiring the night previous. Didn't write a damn thing down and what do you know; everything came out just as we asked. You'll get your choice of grapefruit or fresh fruit cup (I had the fresh fruit with a dollop of greek yogurt). Then you'll either enjoy blueberry pancakes or a standard English breakfast of eggs, sausage, grilled mushroom, tomato and toast. Your meal will be topped off with coffee and a carafe of orange juice if you please. This place is the epitome of "Home sweet home". Other awesome things to know: * Tea is available 24 hrs/day * There will be a stash of cookies with said tea * This place won't break the bank (Summer rates are between $100-$120 / night) * Each room comes with a "faux" fire place * Cable TV/Wifi is provided for guest * Lots of nearby restaurants * The US/Canadian Border is less than 5 mins away.

    I just noticed that there was only one review on this site. I have previously posted very positive…read morereviews for Blair House on TripAdvisor, but must not have done Yelp. It is a wonderful place to stay. It is very clean, comfortable, the breakfast is always outstanding, and Dave couldn't be more congenial. We stay here every time we go to and from Halifax or points further north. I highly recommend it.

    We've been wanting to stay here for 1.5 years... It was worth the wait…read more Gorgeous groupings of wildflowers, and gardens of less wild flowers (I think... I should know more about flora), grew throughout the property. The bird feeders provided a very cool view of birds I've never seen before. I was tickled to hear that droning buzz sound from a hummingbird flying nearby a couple of times... Our first 5 nights were in John's Flat ( a one bedroom apartment below Cove View). It has a slightly more removed feeling from the water than the other accommodations, but the view is still lovely. The kitchen was a full kitchen - stocked by someone who wasn't messing around. I found myself chopping vegetables with a Henckel knife. Bed was reasonably comfy... and if I were a bath person, that whirlpool tub looked like it would be amazing. Shower had great water pressure. Wi-fi was strong. The place was divine, especially for the first 3 nights. For those sensitive to sound... 3 nights were lovely as the couple staying above us were delightfully quiet - or normal? The last 2 nights were a little marred by the changing of the guard. The new temporary residents above us had a tireless clog dancer among them. It kinda ruined it for me, but I don't blame the accommodations for that. One small change I would make would be an update to the living room furniture. Everything was a bit 'low' and a bit uncomfortable. We weren't there to lounge in front of the tv (and it was a great tv - with great cable available), but I would have loved a nice, comfy, higher reading/lounging chair or two inside. We extended our stay by a night - and ended up in a room within the inn. Sally's attic. Very cute. Happy they had an A/C available... and happy that we brought our traveling fan along. A common theme for me on the island was that I really wished that I didn't have an aversion to seafood. All of the dining options at Whale Cove sounded amazing... we just couldn't eat a lot of them :( . We had dinner there one night and it was delicious... very tasteful, and tasty. I think I may have enjoyed our breakfast even a tiny bit more though.... the rhubarb/cherry/banana compote (?) to start was heavenly. The eggs and hash that followed were delightful. Every interaction with a staff member was wonderful - whether direct with conversation - or indirect - the place is very clean, and the food and service excellent. The location is great. At the end of Whistle road is a fog horn/lighthouse combo, and a lookout a bit further down the road. Locals shared that this was a popular spot to watch the sunset. On our last day, I either saw porpoise or minke whales in the distance from this lookout over Whale Cove. Great walking/hiking paths as well. Its a great place to stay and dine, and I hope to stay there again.

    Small and quaint, the dinning room is a must visit for any Grand Manan visitor or local. Chef Laura…read moreis a true culinary master!
