Perfect House from which to explore a Beautiful Area
Submitted: September 26, 2011
Stayed: September 2011
Our group of 5 adults, one of whom is wheelchair-bound, just returned from our stay at this delightful house. It is quite large, but very accessible; private areas abound, and there is plenty of room for communal activities such as dining and game-playing. It is suitable for adult groups such as ours, but would also work well for groups with children, as one bedroom has a queen bed, bunk beds, and a sofa-bed all in the same room. The beautiful swimming pool and outdoor sauna would also be enjoyed by groups with children. The pictures on the web site show an accurate depiction of the house, which was quite clean and well-maintained. The furnishings are very nice but also very comfortable. Our favorite aspect of the house is its fabulous view--especially delightful if you get up early enough to enjoy the sunrise--and there are 3+ decks from which to enjoy it! We loved sitting out, having a glass of wine in the evening, and watching the boats and seabirds come in.
The owner provides guests with an extensive list of restaurants and activities in the area, and excellent directions to the house, which is located "off the beaten path". We used the house as a "jumping off" point for our Nova Scotia explorations, as it is easy to access Halifax, the South Shore communities, the Annapolis Valley, and other areas from Hubbards. Hubbards and the nearby communities of Chester, Mahone Bay, and Lunenburg have many opportunities for both fine and casual dining, as well as for outdoor activities.
We were very sorry to leave our "Nova Scotia home" and come back to reality! Everyone in our party agreed that we would definitely recommend this house to any visitors to the area. Thank you for allowing us access to your fantastic rental!
