Charming & Peaceful Gem in Mahone Bay/400 Meters to the Water's Edge
Welcome to Knotting Hill – your peaceful hideaway set on 2 acres, tucked beside the charming seaside village of Mahone Bay and a 10 minute drive to Lunenburg. This tranquil retreat invites you to start your day with a quiet coffee on the deck as deer graze on the lawn. Surrounded by nature, you’ll be greeted each morning by gentle birdsong and the soft rustle of leaves. Thanks to our private, serene location, you’ll enjoy a restful escape far from the noise and rush of everyday life.
Step into history in our charming 1895 post-and-beam home, thoughtfully decorated in seaside blues and maritime touches, inspired by Nova Scotia’s coast. While this peaceful gem isn't ocean view, with two acres of space and the water only a 400 meter stroll away, you'll have the best of both worlds.
THE SPACE:
-TWO INVITING BEDROOMS: an extra large King suite with a King size bed and a futon, and a second Queen size bed lobster-themed room featuring a unique stained-glass lobster window.
-A FULLY STOCKED KITCHEN: complete with spices, cookware, and everything you need to prepare a special meal.
ONE AND A HALF BATHROOMS: A full bathroom on the main floor, and a powder room on the upper level servicing both bedrooms.
-FAMILY FRIENDLY AMENITIES: including a high chair, portable crib, dinnerware for little ones, a selection of board games, puzzles, books & crafts.
-COZY AND SPACIOUS LIVING AREAS: filled with maritime décor that guests love.
-OUTDOOR ADVENTURE: badminton net & rackets, two 2 person inflatable kayaks and more outdoor games.
-FIREPIT: gather around the fire pit under the stars while you tell questionable ghost stories.
In this local gem, we have won the hearts of our guests with our sparkling clean accommodations and a friendly, responsive host. Designed with togetherness in mind - it's perfect for couples, families, friends, or bridal parties.
This coastal retreat offers a sense of peace you never knew you were missing, and won't soon forget. Come and experience it for yourself. Book your escape today and let the warmth of Knotting Hill welcome you home - where special memories are made .
