Photos and Description of the Antigonish vacation cottage rental - 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 8

About 50 years ago, the local bishop of Antigonish, a lovely university town in northeastern Nova Scotia, had the right idea - to build himself a simple cottage near the water as a place where he could retreat from the hectic pressures of daily life. Some things do not change - except that the cottage is now open to visitors from far and wide. The Bishop’s Cottage is privately nestled on its own five acres of land surrounded by spruce and poplar trees. It was completely renovated in 2004 and brought back to its simple state. Inside are lovely spaces: a large kitchen that opens onto an expansive screened in porch; a dining room that seats 8; four charming bedrooms with painted wooden floors; two full bathrooms and a large living room that opens onto a southwest facing deck. So come, stay a while, unwind - you're sure to leave refreshed and recharged. Please see our website.
