It's a little piece of paradise with the sea, the sun, the wind and this beautiful house. Merci beaucoup pour tout!
We have stayed at Sea Star Cottage on several occasions. It is a lovely and tranquil spot to get recharged and enjoy a vacation. It is very private and yet close to a beautiful beach! You will think you are in a paradise when you see the beach! The cottage is cozy and wonderfully decorated. We would highly recommend it to all ages!
We had a fantastic stay at Francis Louis House on our honeymoon. It's a relaxing and beautiful! This is a truely a unique place and we enjoyed every moment here.
Orchard Point exceeded our expectations!! We had such an outstanding two-week stay. We hope to return for years to come. We chose this place to isolate (as per NS covid rules) with our 4 month old baby. We had so much room to roam safely, lots of quiet, serene rocky shore to explore, and didn't see anyone except for the neighbour once or twice. It was truly perfect! There were tons of amenities, games to play, noodles for floating in the ocean, and anything else you might need on a beach vacation. Falling asleep to the ocean waves and waking to the perfectly calm water and sometimes even the sunrise was amazing, and the stars were spectacular every night! We couldn't recommend this place enough.

Port MedwayDescriptionPort Medway is a picturesque fishing village overlooking the Medway Harbour. Originally called “Port Moltare” by French pioneers. In 1760, English speaking fishermen settled in the area; changed the name to Port Medway and helped to develop the village into a thriving shipping community. Cargoes of salted and dried fish were shipped to the United States, Caribbean and South America. Lumber from the sawmills of Greenfield, Charleston and Mill Village were loaded on ships and sailed to foreign ports. There were approximately twenty families resident in the settlement who erected a Baptist Meeting House and a schoolhouse. Both of these buildings have been preserved and serve important functions in the village. Today the town is a vibrant community that supports a local fishing industry and plays host to an annual Literary festival. The Port Medway Readers’ Festival was founded in 2002 by Cynthia Wine and Philip Slayton continuing the tradition of the “Tennysonian Reading Circle”, started by the ladies of Port Medway in 1903. Past authors include Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, Linden McIntyre, Donna Morrissey and many other award-winning writers reading from their latest works. The festival takes place during the months of July and August with a variety of readings all held at the Old Meeting House – the original Baptist Meeting House. The original Medway Head Lighthouse has been preserved and is now a charming Lighthouse Park with a picnic area, walking paths and an exhibit space. AddressPort Medway, Nova ScotiaGoogle Map |
