Larry and Ann were the most wonderful hosts we could have hoped for. They were warm, welcoming, and wonderfully helpful. Following their recommendations, we found some of our favorite places on our trip - once we had finished enjoying the delicious breakfast they served. When I woke up one morning with back problems, they went above and beyond anything in... More

This fabulous B & B is in a beautiful setting just outside Truro and is top shelf all the way. Anne and Larry are very accommodating hosts who have a natural gift for engaging guests. I only stayed here one night as I was passing through on business but will be back when in the area. The Master Suite was... More

Ann and Larry could not have made us feel anymore like family. Our room was exquisite and the breakfast was perfect. From the time I called for reservations until we drove out of their driveway they were perfect hosts. We definitely would recommend their B&B and would return in a second. Geri and Hank Cyr More

We decided to stay here because of all the excellent reviews rather than in town, and we are not sorry we did! Normally we look for somewhere that we can leave the car on arrival and walk to a restaurant but this wasn't possible here. However the nearest restaurant, recommended by Larry, was only 5km away and easy to find... More

Agree with all the other reviews on here - lovely B&B with fantastic hosts. This is how a B&B should be! Great food, very pleasant, comfortable rooms and friendly owners who will really make you feel at home. I loved all the complimentary toiletries as well. We'll definitely be back! More

Not only is the room beautiful and VERY comfortable, but the hosts, besides being charming people themselves, also make sure you meet the other guests, creating an extra experience – from an evening chat in the sitting room to a breakfast nobody wants to get up from. More

In early October we travelled to Nova Scotia to visit family and all of the hotels in Truro were booked because of a 4-H exhibition. Fortunately, we were directed to this Bed and Breakfast. It was very clean and comfortable. We had a choice of four rooms and chose The Fergus room. A marvellous collection of antiques throughout the house.... More

What a great place to stay. Larry & Ann were the perfect hosts,friendly,helpful & great cooks. Our breakfast was amazing, we didn't need to eat again until supper time!! Very clean accommodations & well appointed with lots of little extras,I don't see how they can do any more to make their guests feel at home.I would definately stay with them... More
