What a great cottage! Scenery, quiet, tranquility, quietest cottage we have ever stayed at. Went down Blanche Rd. to the end (about 10 min from cottage) and walked the beach and rocks at low tide. Saw a colony of seals barking on the rocks. Don't miss Cape Forchu outside of Yarmouth. Outstanding!
The perfect oceanside vacation
A week at this Orchard Point was like a week in paradise. The house is very well built, and comfortably furnished with a great kitchen. The ocean, where you can swim from the rocks, begins right where the lawn ends. That is where both the sun and moon rise. It is comfortable all day in the breeze and stays warm though the night. It is private and feels secluded but is not remote; stores and all you need are close by.
Amazing week - all of the comforts of home in a beautiful setting
From the moment we arrived and saw the we knew our one week stay here would be memorable. Our two children lov Castaway Ocean Lodgeed the hot tub, the board games, exploring the beach and looking at birds and fishing boats in the bay with the binoculars. We loved the clean and comfortable space, the fully stocked kitchen (it even has sharp knives - something I've never seen in a rental before!), the views, the comfortable beds, the deck chairs and so much more. Highly recommend! |
Peggy's Cove Lighthouse
This stunning photograph taken by Chuck Doswell (www.cdoswell.com) captures beautifully the clarity of light and the waters surrounding Peggy’s Cove.

DescriptionCertainly, Nova Scotia's, and perhaps Canada's most famous Lighthouse, Peggy's Cove lighthouse was erected in 1868 to mark the eastern entrance to St. Margaret's Bay. Peggy's Cove is a small picturesque fishing village that surrounds a narrow ocean inlet, which provides safe haven for boats during the Atlantic's rough weather. The lighthouse built on the large smooth wave washed granite rocks is the crowning feature of this beautiful Atlantic cove. You can walk over the huge boulders to enjoy the splendid view in all directions. There is a Post Office inside the lower level of the lighthouse where visitors are able to mail their post cards. There is a restaurant and gift shop for meals and souvenirs.This is a very popular tourist destination. We have found that it is best to visit the lighthouse either early in the morning before the tour busses or late in the day after the crowds have disbursed.LocationPeggy's Cove, Nova ScotiaAddressPeggy's Cove, Nova ScotiaWebsitePeggy's Cove LighthouseGoogle Map |
