Paradise in Prospect Bay

This B&B was perfect! We spent our days exploring Nova Scotia, then back to what felt like home. The evenings spent on the deck by the water watching the sunset was just what we needed. The hosts made communications easy and were readily available if needed! I highly recommend a stay at this wonderful B&B!

Excellent accommodation in a great location. Our host Clary was friendly and accommodating, going out of his way to greet us and make us feel welcome as we arrived quite late due to car repairs. The place is nice and quiet. There are a lot of stair steps to negotiate from the road down to the guest suite on the lowest level, so if you have a lot of luggage, you’re gonna get some exercise.

Oceanfront Paradise!

We recently stayed at Sand Castle Suite during our first ever visit to the east coast of Canada. It did not dissapoint! The property and the suite are so lovely! It was the perfect location to get to many interesting places, and a very short drive to halifax. Clary was very attentive and a lovely fellow to talk to. And the deck looking at the bay was my favourite place for coffee and a book! We will definitely stay here again if we return to the area 😊
