This is a charming B&B with immaculate rooms and a homey atmosphere. The hosts are friendly and engaging without being intrusive. Breakfast was superb - and healthy. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and recommend this as a pleasant choice to more standard accommodations in the area. More

My husband, myself and our teenage son recently spent 5 nights at Baker's Chest B&B. Maarten, Nelly and of course Dico (the handsome dog) were so friendly, making us feel at home from the minute we arrived. Baker's Chest is immaculately kept, with it being clear that they take a great deal of pride in their wonderful B&B. The added... More

The good reputation is very well-deserved. We spent a weekend with two children while skiing at Wentworth. The kids had fun playing on the xbox and soaking in the hot tub after skiing. Truro is less than half an hour from Wentworth so Baker's Chest is well located as a base for skiing there. Maarten and Nelly are very pleasant... More

We really loved our stay recently at Maarten and Nelly's. The rooms are fantastic as well as the entire house. The beds were much more comfortable then what you would normally see at a hotel. The breakfasts which are made entirely on the premises were really good and we enjoyed the company of our host and other guests. We are... More

We spent two wintry nights in this wonderful B and B. The highlights of our room, the Esty suite, were the beautiful king bed, claw foot tub and pretty windows with a simply country view. The highlights of our whole stay, however were our hosts Maarten and Nellie and their amazing breakfasts! I am so glad we were able to... More

A wonderful place to hang your hat and get some excellent breakfast! The rooms were clean, comfortable and the wi-fi was excellent. My 12 year old son liked the place so much I didn't think we'd get him to leave! Nelly and Maarten were wonderful hosts and next time we're in Truro we will be back for another stay. More

Stayed at Baker's Chest overnight in early Oct. for one night. Nelly was a wonderful, friendly hostess. Breakfast was delicious and we felt right at home and enjoyed our time chatting around the table. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting an immaculate, homey atmosphere. Would gladly return! More

After driving in the dark and stormy weather from Halifax airport we were warmly greeted by Nelly and Maarten. We found the room spacious, warm and cozy. It was so wonderful we booked in a second night a week later. The breakfasts were excellent with fresh fruit featuring dutch baking. We had Dutch pancakes and fruit crepes on the other.... More

The owners of Bakers Chest are just the best. The Bed and Breakfast is so cozy and comfortable. We had the Estey room, which was just delightful. It was decorated with beautiful classic furniture, it was clean, and warm, the claw foot tub was wonderful to soak in. The extra attention to detail by the owners to leave out a... More

We stayed on 2 separate nights in October before and after visiting Cape Bretton. Maarten and Nelly were great hosts and made our stay very enjoyable. They were able to recommend good value restaurants and the breakfasts were fabulous. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Would definitely stay there again. More
