One review..... So far. I guess Yelp is not as popular as Tripadvirsor in these parts of the world…read more This is a beautiful place. This house Is lucky to have Kelly and her husband taking care of it. It has been fixed up so nicely, it is decorated with Kelly's hand/knife paintings, she is an amazing artist with obvious talent, if you are into buying art you might have a chance to find something you like, don't hesitate, it will be gone fast. The ambience here is great, as you come in you will find a sitting/living room where you can chose to hang out if you please. There is coffee and tea in the dining room until 8pm and if that is not enough don't worry there is lot to chose from in your room. The attention to detail is so nice and it really makes you feel at home. If you are on business like me, you will find great refuge in your room, with your own TV and more channels than you know what to do with. Apparently there is two dogs in the house but I never heard or saw them. This house is on a quiet street a few min. walk to one of the best restaurants in town. You can walk the food off on the way home and be sure to get a quiet sleep. Enjoy!! Oh and I almost forgot.... The breakfast was really good....

This is a review that I've been dreading having to write, if for no other reason than I know…read morethere's very little I can say that can do my time at this stunning bed and breakfast justice. Having been very lucky to stay in some pretty incredible places around the world, there's no question that The Old Parsonage easily ranks within my top five. I was stuck looking for a place to get away for a couple of days to myself during which I could do nothing but write, drink wine, relax, and write some more. (And drink more wine...obviously.) After a chance meeting with one of the two owners, an artist himself who takes pride in offering a unique space for creativity, I was sold on the Maitland Suite and booked myself in for a two night, three day stay. When I finished the hour-ish drive from the city, I was floored to realize that I had the entire building to myself - meaning that my plans of being a recluse in my room for three straight days instantly changed to cozying up in any of the six to eight different sitting rooms that were all at my disposal. The fact that I was able to feel as comfortable as I would at home, except with infinitely more beautiful surroundings and gorgeous wood-fire heat, was unbelievable. From room to room, it's plain to see that not a single detail has been overlooked. Each space is a meticulous collection of shabby-chic décor that's both luxurious and liveable - that is, it's not a place where you feel uncomfortable spending the entire day and night. I lounged around like I owned the place, stopping short of napping in the middle of the main living room although I can't imagine that having been a problem... You won't have to rush out in the mornings in search of provisions either. I would make my way downstairs at my leisure to find fresh orange juice, coffee, toast, and scrambled eggs ready for the feasting as I chatted with the owners about life in the UK, our favourite cities around the world, and the importance of getting away from it all from time to time. Truly, I could go on and on, but I won't. Instead, I'll just say that before even leaving the premises, I had already arranged two more plans to return with family, and am already looking forward to my next writing escape. I can't imagine spending them anywhere else.

Brent & Wendy Lee were fantastic. So warm and inviting and eager to help us with dinner suggestions, tourist recommendations, and anything we could dream of to make us more comfortable. Their home is a beautiful gem and our room was large, comfortable, beautifully decorated (most of the artwork on display was painted by the two of them!) and the yard and gardens were spectacular. We appreciated being in the suburbs down a quiet lane and a little closer to the Halifax airport, it made our next day just that much easier and more relaxed. Breakfast was gourmet level. No expense was spared, no detail overlooked. Sugar cubes for tea? Sure but also rock candy swizzle sticks if you preferred! Beautiful garnishes on each plate. We had "Atlantic breakfast" tea, fresh fruit served with a dollop of yogurt and a hint of honey drizzle and chopped nuts, a cheddar chive biscuit with eggs and hollandaise sauce with a side of ham. Every bite was perfect. The only thing was slightly odd was the ensuite bathroom had a curtain instead of a door. It was very elegant, but didn't offer much privacy between the bedroom and bathroom. The giant whirlpool tub more than made up for that though, talk about WOW factor.

It is near nice places to eat, near the airport, and very easy to get to and from. On top of all of that, the place was absolutely beautiful, inside and out. We were very well taken care of.

The Pebble: no other B&B holds a candle to this lovely establishment…read more We absolutely loved our stay and would come back again and again without hesitation. Everything was clean and well appointed. Maid service each day. Elizabeth and her husband (he was away for work while we were there) and their daughter Lizzy (college student) were an absolute delight. Elizabeth has been in the B&B service industry for a while, and she knows how to delight and serve her customers. Elizabeth is gracious like a family member and we feel like we gained a wonderful new friend in her and Lizzy. Ask Elizabeth to tell you about the romantic story about how she named The Pebble! We miss the Pebble already, and you will not regret staying here! Location: Perfectly situated in an affluent and highly desirable location, just far enough away from the city center, Dal University, the lake and all major highways. Price: Perfectly matched for this lovely and well-appointed B&B. You will find much cheaper, but they are not even in the same league as The Pebble. We found the price rightly valued and much more that we asked for. Kids: We have a 3 years old and Elizabeth accommodated us with a small mattress which we put on the floor; this was perfect! The room is very spacious which allowed all three of us to have ample room to do our own thing. Breakfast: This was included in our stay. Elizabeth is seriously a gourmet chef and our breakfasts were so decadent each morning--we felt so taken care of.

This is a review of the food only…read more The main floor of the ornate inn is largely used as the dining area for their restaurant. Where you can enjoy a 3-course meal ($62.50). Or add an extra $2.50 to receive a small salad course between the main and dessert. For those want a smaller dinner, dishes are also available a la carte (prices reflected in this post). Their tomato bruschetta ($14) uses a decadent whipped ricotta as the base, building upon the classic ingredients of cherry tomatoes, herbs, and a balsamic reduction. With tons of flavours and not as messy to eat, this was a wonderful starting bite. Arriving as a big chunk, the maple smoked salmon ($14) could benefit from a bit of preparation to present it in a crostini form. The candy sweet salmon was powerful on its own but balances out with the maple yogurt sauce and baguette. A bit of pickled red onion and/or arugula would add some freshness the dish needs. Save some of that bread for the steamed mussels ($14), classically prepared in a white wine and garlic broth. I rather enjoyed the bell pepper used throughout for colour and added flavour. The mussels just needed to be soaked longer as they were still several gritty crustaceans. You can't go wrong with seafood in Nova Scotia. The pan seared halibut ($37) was perfectly cooked to a flaky and moist consistency. The thick meaty piece could use more seasoning but if you get enough of the 'hodge podge', a medley of vegetables cooked in a cream sauce, onto the fish it helps to add flavour. The scallops in the scallops picatta ($37) were beautifully seared and just cooked through. The natural sweetness of the seafood was also prominent since the lemon caper sauce used with the pappardelle wasn't too strong. With a touch more salt, this dish would have been perfect. While the lobster linguine ($44; $7 supplement with the prix fixe) smelled good, the dish was majorly lacking on taste. The spaghetti was overcooked, and everything screamed for more seasoning, butter, and acid. My nose was more impressed than the tongue. This is a long review, for the rest go to Gastro World.

Her oat bran fruit muffin is to die for! During the whole meal they engage all of their guests in delightful conversation and make you feel right at home, in their personal home. The view of the cove is breathtaking and they are only minutes from the legendary Peggys Cove Lighthouse. We paid $200.00 Canadian per night for the cottage and when we converted it to American is was less than an average hotel here in the states. It was worth every penny and I personally plan to go back in the future.

Dan and Arlene are gracious hosts and upon my arrival, I was greeted by their welcome committee, Coco. (a cockapoo dog who I think is happy to socialize with anyone!) I'm not a big breakfast person which means that I usually have coffee and that's it. But I couldn't refuse the delicious breakfast that was served. Coffee/Tea, Juice, Fresh Fruit, Eggs... the works! I wish that the Stella Rose was a chain in every city I travel to. (But I'm sure they'd be fully booked) Both Dan and Arlene are fabulous people and you definitely will want to stay with them again.

After a day of touring vineyards in this beautiful area, the Stella Rose B&B was a fantastic home away from home. Check in was a breeze and Dan gave us a tour of their indoor common area, sun shaded deck and our cozy cottage-like suite for 3. With a double, single and pull-out couch already made up, we each had a place to lay our heads. The modern bathroom with plenty of shower pressure helped us wash off the day before having the most peaceful sleep (though I'm sure the wine tastings helped here). The breakfast cooked and served with smiles by our host and hostess was reason enough to return! OJ and Water were waiting for us on our deck table, and coffee was quickly served. After confirming any dietary restrictions we were started off with a generous cup of berries and yogurt, sprinkled with cinnamon. Fresh out of the pan, our next plate included a portobello and three cheese omelet, ham, beans, shredded potato, toast, and cherries! The Stella Rose B&b gets 5 stars for quality, comfort, price, character, and charm. I look forward to my next excuse to stay here.
