Clean and comfy
We love this place! Although it’s an older facility, it is extremely clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was right there. And the views are exactly what we like.
View from the coastline just behind the motel.
Peggy’s Cove is just a quick drive up the road.

Not bad!
The room was very small but clean. The first impression when driving in wasn’t very good but the room was clean & comfortable

Conveniently located close to Peggy’s Cove. I thought that it’s a little strange that the shower is in the corner of the bedroom rather than in the bathroom, but I’m staying by myself so it doesn’t really matter.

This property is located on the scenic coastline near Peggy's Cove. Our room had a small deck overlooking the shore. There was also a sitting area overlooking the rocky beach. The room was very clean and well furnished.

Old school motel right on the water. We had a back porch that overlooked the water. The staff was so accommodating because we arrived very late. They went and turned the lights on for us!!

Not worth the price. It was clean and newly renovated. We felt ripped off, we stayed at 6 other properties in Nova Scotia, some where way cheaper with just as nice of a view and they included breakfast. I guess it depends on your expectations, if you are looking for a clean place to stay this is it with a nice view, this is it but you will pay for it and you won’t have the convinces other places we stayed at had.

Liked: Location to Peggy's Cove was fabulous, minutes away. Right on the water, close to restaurants all ideal. Disliked: The shower is in the room with no ceiling which the steam comes into the room, making the room smell musty (which they try to hide by room deodorizer, yes there is an exhaust fan to try and vent the steam - it is not enough. Under the bathroom sink was someones hair brush.

Perfect spot by Peggy's cove area.
Perfect location if you want to be near Peggy's cove! As well as a great spot if you needed a comfy place to rest from a long drive. We stayed at room #7 with ocean view during mid-August. Seems they just renovated the place and looks lovely and have everything that you need. A little pricey but I think its a good overall value. One thing they could improve on is the pillows. A little bit too flat for my liking, so I just double it up.
