Guest Testimonials

What a delightful and elegant home! We are very sad to be leaving. It was nice to be a Liverpuddlian for a week. Thank you for thinking of all the right things to make this a home away from home.

This cottage is totally equipped with just about anything you can think of, including a desk area for your computer and a printer! It is nicely furnished, and has great views. Very quiet, the only visitors are the local deer!

We experienced two weeks holidays in a wonderful nice place. The nature, sun, sea, fog, wind wildlife and many other things have fullfilled our days with peace and satisfaction. As a boatbuilder and naval architect, I have been very satisfied with the architecture of this house.

What a beautiful home, wonderfully detailed and perfect for families. We enjoyed walking along the shore and watching the seals every day. Roseway Beach is spectacular, Shelburne was very nice and the food was wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing your home.

Lunenburg

Sam, Max and I spent a day in Lunenburg exploring the Fisheries Museum and the harbour front.

Tall Ships are moored in Lunenburg.

This rocking Dory was a huge hit with my two young fishermen.

The Bluenose II is a replica of the famous Bluenose Schooner - the celebrated racing ship and hard-working fishing vessel, that held the International Fisherman's Trophy for 17 years in a row. (1921-1938)

Description

Lunenburg is one of the best surviving examples of a planned British colonial settlement in North America. Founded and established in 1753, the town is named in honour of the Duke of Braunschweig-Lüneburg who later became King George II of England in 1727. Lunenburg has retained its original layout and overall appearance, based on a rectangular grid pattern drawn up in the home country. The plans were created without regard to local topography, which is why Lunenburg's streets are always straight and sometimes dizzyingly steep. If you are of limited mobility or are pushing a heavy stroller, it may be too much for you. Historic homes and buildings that date back to the 1700s have been renovated and now house restaurants, shops and galleries. The extraordinary preservation of the Town's architecture earned it the designation of an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995. There is plenty to do in Lunenburg. Go for a horse and buggy ride around the town or take a walking tour; have a lobster lunch or take a fishing charter. Make sure you set aside time to visit the Fisheries Museum. There are plenty of excellent restaurants.

Location

Lunenburg is approximately an hour and a half drive from Shelburne (125 km/78 miles) a 50 minute drive from Liverpool (60 km/38 miles) and an hour and 15 minutes from Halifax (95 km/60 miles).
