This was such a lovely place to stay. The room was large and had a great view of the area. There were many places to sit and enjoy the view or just read a book. I could have stayed a week. The staff was so nice and accommodating.

Wonderful place to stay on the Cabot Trail. Jane and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was incredible! We had an Ocean view room which was very comfortable. We even were welcomed and had fun playing bluegrass music in their lounge area. We really hope to return and stay longer next time!

Very friendly and helpful staff! The room and bed are very comfortable. The biggest plus is the wonderful view of the valley and the bay from the terrace. You can also have breakfast on the terrace. The breakfast itself could be a bit richer, e.g. the selection of toppings.

Good - Old fashioned, quiet country hotel with amazing views over the Gulf of St Lawrence, excellent choice of breakfast foods with plenty of healthy options and lovely room. Only slight downside was the restaurant is not open this season which meant going back out when I would have preferred staying in after a long day of driving.
