Guest TestimonialsShipwright's Cottage, the area and Nova Scotia are all fantastic! One week was not enough. The deer visited everyday and appeared to be watching us more than we were watching them. Thank you for sharing this cozy and comfortable home.
What a wonderful location and landscape to quiet the soul. The water, tides, pines, sunsets, wild life (including deck squirrel) are perfect. Scallops at Digby are everything they said they would be. Lobster at Rudders in Yarmouth was remembered days after the first bite. Charlotte's Lane in Shelburne was 2 thumbs way up! We are sorry we could not stay longer. Thanks!
What a lovely place to spend our week here in Nova Scotia! The view of the harbour is spectacular. We've enjoyed a glorious week of Indian Summer traveling along the lighthouse trail. A few favourite sights were Peggy's Cove and Mahone Bay and the Saturday morning Farmer's Market in Halifax. Enjoying a soak in the hot tub after driving all day was so relaxing. We had a great week at Castaway Ocean Lodge!
We had a great time enjoying the peace and tranquility that abounds here. Thank you very much for renting your beautiful home to us. We had a marvelous time at Slate Hill! Nova Scotia is beautiful. We really enjoyed our first visit. The sunset is spectacular here in Blanche! Beautiful!

For If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I have stayed at this cottage with my family on more than one occasion and I am quite familiar with the property. LocationSurrounded on three sides by sand and sea, Sanderling Beach House is located at the very end of Louis Head’s spectacular white sandy beach. Scroll down for a MAP showing the location of this cottage. In May and June parts of the beach become a protected wildlife sanctuary, as it is here that the endangered Piping Plover return each year to nest and rear their young. During the breeding season dogs must be leashed and people are asked to avoid the designated nesting areas.15 minutes away Lockeport is the closest town to this cottage. Lockeport is known for its Crescent Beach - a stunning scimitar of white sand approximately 1.5 km or 1 mile long. Lockeport hosts a number of festivals and events during the summer months: Canada Day Celebrations, Harmony Bazaar Festival of Women in Song and the Lockeport Sea Derby. The Canada Day celebration is always on the first of July, Harmony Bazaar typically takes place on the last weekend in July while the Sea Derby is usually on the second weekend in August. Crescent Beach Centre hosts the Sea Derby and a number of family events, such as the Beach Bash. Also worth investigating is Nova Scotia's only Registered Historic Streetscape, made up of five houses built by descendants of Jonathan Locke between 1836 and 1876. The houses offer an interesting cross section of historical architecture with excellent examples of Colonial, Georgian and Victorian styles. A walking-tour guidebook is available at the Little School Museum, which displays artifacts from early settlers. 25 minutes away, Shelburne is a charming and historic town set on a truly spectacular harbour. The harbour is unspoiled by industry or shipping and is used primarily for recreational activities like sailing and boating. Shelburne hosts a number of festivals and events over the year: Lobster Festival , Founders Days, Writers Festival, the Whirligig & Weathervane Festival, and Pumpkin Festival. The Lobster Festival is usually held on the first weekend in June. The town wide yard sale is also on this same weekend. Founder’s Days takes place on the third weekend in July. The Shelburne Writer’s Festival is hosted by the Osprey Arts Centre and typically takes place on the first weekend in August. The Whirligig and the Pumpkin Festivals are fall festivals that take place on the third weekend in September and first weekend in October. The Shelburne County and Dory Museums are worth visiting. When John Williams established his dory shop in 1880, it was part of a dory-building industry, which at its peak, included at least seven shops along the Shelburne waterfront. During the early part of this century the shop employed five to seven men and produced 350 dories per year. The museum has a workshop where Dories are still built to this day (albeit not in such large quantities!). Amenities
