We flew out from BC for a wedding and came a few days early to tour around. We picked this place because it was oceanfront so close to Peggy’s Cove. The place was super cozy, beds were very comfortable, and the view was incredible. Was perfect for what we needed!

We had an amazing experience at Clifty Cove and could stay there indefinitely. The owners are super friendly and helpful. The views off the balcony were spectacular and it was a peaceful place to enjoy the natural surroundings. Conveniently located to Peggy’s Cove, downtown Halifax and Mahone Bay/Lunenberg. We will definitely stay here again.
