Easy walk to the beach. Marvin (welcome committee cat) comfortable rooms with AC, fridge, comfy bed, nice clean rooms and showers, gardens to explore, outside seating with propane fire table. And the food is Gourmet delicious! The Chefs should have a Michelin star. The scallops and vegetables, scones/bread, lemon meringue pie - the best we’ve ever had! We highly recommend!

We stayed our last night in Nova Scotia at the Amherst Shore Country Inn. It’s family owned and had a nice welcoming feel to it. Mary was so helpful and nice. The room was very nice and comfortable, the property is beautiful, right on the water, and the main part of the inn is cozy. It was a little rainy but we put on our rain gear and explored the grounds. Not only are the grounds beautiful but there are places to sit, to play games, and just relax. Our entire experience was delightful!

Innkeepers were friendly and helpful. We had a chalet which included a sitting area (with sofa, arm chair and gas fireplace) and kitchenette. The sleeping area was furnished with a four-poster bed and jacuzzi. Bathroom was modern, pristinely clean. Breakfast was available at an extra charge that was well worth it. Only downside was the fact that dinner is only served 4 days a week. That said, the innkeepers mage helpful recommendations for nearby places. I definitely recommend this place if you are in the area.

A family owned gem of a place
What a delightful stay! This 3rd generation family inn is located on the beautiful, quiet Northumberland Strait of Nova Scotia. The water is warmer there, the sand is solid and safe for wading or swimming. We stayed in a cabin with a kitchenette, expecting to make our own breakfasts. But after having breakfast there the first morning, we enjoyed it so much we decided to buy their delicious, homemade breakfasts every morning of our stay in their beautifully appointed dining room. We were there one evening when they served dinner and it was equally as delicious and lovely. If you are looking for a quiet, private spot with the option of either cook your own meals or enjoy their cooking, consider this place.

Beautiful and rather secluded location. Sadly they do not serve dinner except Thursday-Sunday, this means you need to drive 20-30 minutes for dinner on M/Tu/W. The breakfast was very good , but limited selection. The furniture in the chalets were old and cushions were uncomfortable.

I’ve never posted a bad review, and I realize this might be out of their control….but There were literally DOZENS of mosquitoes in my room. I couldn’t fall asleep til 2am cause I had to try and get rid of them. And I still got bitten over and over all night long.
