Cozy & Friendly — near Peggy's Cove

Quiet & breezy, surrounded by trees, gardens & nature. Stay with me while exploring the rugged beauty of the Peggy's Cove area, nearby (I'm situated halfway between downtown Halifax and Peggy's Cove). Large gardens and quiet space. Please note: I am a beekeeper, and there are two hives on the property. They are not near the house and well away from guests — the property is large, and most people would not even be aware of their existence. But if you have an allergy to bee stings, please be aware. We can discuss this on an individual basis, but most guests arrive between 7 - 8:30 pm, and leave by 11 in the morning. Sometimes, they like to sit outside in the evening and enjoy the yard. I am always here when guests arrive and leave, as well as when they are onsite. So we co-ordinate that together. My guests are staying in my home, so we will interact fairly closely. Having said that, I respect my guests' privacy, and let them give the lead on how much they want to interact. So far this has worked very well. It is near to Peggy's Cove, while at the same time being only 15 or 20 minutes to the city. It has a semi-rural feel, is close to nature, and only 5 minutes from the coastline (and one of the most picturesque areas in the Province). For those interested in kayaking, East Coast Outfitters is only minutes away — with all the coves and islands in this area, it's prime for saltwater kayaking. We are rural, so cars/bikes etc are necessary. I host couples and female visitors.
