About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Between Two Legends - Beyond Ordinary. With Kayaks & Firepit

Welcome to Knotting Hill – tucked between the quaint coastal villages of Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. Nestled on nearly two acres of peaceful surroundings, it's the perfect place to enjoy a quiet coffee on the deck and watch the deer graze on the grounds. Thanks to our private, relaxing setting, you'll enjoy being away from the hustle and bustle of busy street traffic.

THE SPACE

Welcome inside our cozy but spacious home, thoughtfully decorated in seaside blues, inspired by the nearby ocean. Inside our fully stocked kitchen, we have everything you need to create a special dinner to celebrate a loved ones birthday, or enjoy a romantic Anniversary meal together. We’ve even added a high chair, portable crib, dinnerware and cutlery for your littles, because tiny humans need vacations too!. Relax in our light and airy open plan living and dining room and take part in a friendly game with our board games, puzzles, arts & crafts, books & knitting needles. If you’re looking for outdoor adventure, take one of our 2 inflatable kayaks out for a paddle around Mahone Bay or launch at Westhaver’s beach which is only 1 km away. In the evening, sit around the firepit under the stars as you roast marshmallows and tell questionable ghost stories.

You’ll feel well rested after your first night’s sleep in our Captain's Quarters, a King Suite with a sumptuous King bed and a comfortable double futon - great for kids or extra guests. Our second bedroom, The Lobster Loft, also boasts the same comfortable mattress in a Queen size, and features an ocean inspired lobster stained glass window. Our home comfortably sleeps up to 6 people and is equipped with 1 1/2 bathrooms.

In this local gem, we have won the hearts of our guests with our sparkling clean accomodations and a responsive host who loves to make recommendations when asked. So you can focus on your vacation. It's the kind of peace you didn't know you needed, but won't soon forget. Come and experience it for yourself. Book your escape today and let the warmth of Knotting Hill welcome you home.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

What a wonderful place!

We spent 5 nights at this cottage and loved every second of it! It's located right outside of Mahone Bay and it is a short drive away from Lunenburg.The cottage itself was great - very roomy and extremely well appointed. My husband loves to cook and the kitchen had everything he needed (including a great selection of spices).We hope to come back to the area soon and will absolutely stay here again!

The best stay we had during our maritime Adventures

The property is perfect; cosy and has everything you would need. The hosts were so responsive and even thought of our downtime with games and knitting supplies. The deers visited us every day and we were in love. Perfect location between Mahone Bay and Lunenberg!

Lovely! Will return!

We travelled from Ontario and were very impressed with the house and surrounding area. Close to Peggy's cove, Lunenburg/Bluenose and osk island. If in mahone bay try the chicken tacos at the mug n anchor. Watch for the deer from the deck at dusk, we saw them every evening!
