Located in a town with the highest concentration of heritage buildings in Canada, a stay at the Queen Anne Inn is an insight into 19th-century Canada. The wooden-slatted house was built in 1856, with high ceilings and large windows from which to admire the grounds. The previous owner, an antique collector, ensured the Victorian essence was upheld by curating a collection of antiques and period furniture.
Victoriana meets the 21st century with an en suite, Wi-Fi and TV in each room. The grounds also joins onto a local wildlife reserve which is a quiet spot to relax after a day exploring. We particularly recommend the infamous three-course breakfast.
OUR OPINION:
We love this property 鈥� no room is the same and each has its own character.聽The homely three-course breakfast adds to the Nova Scotian hospitality, and the outside of the building is just as charming as the interior.
