Did not need

Ann Marie and Dave have made this a very special place. My ground floor room was ultra comfortable with spectacular garden and sea views. Dinner and breakfast were quite exceptional. I cannot recommend enough.

Clean house, host was exceptional

our stay was cozy and comfortable. The property had all amenities you would need for comfort and cooking.

Beautiful area and cottage. A bit too remote for our needs.

Sailor's Rest was awesome. We found the house to be as described; and the host was communicative and responsive. As the pictures show, the house is hard by the ocean, with a little cove just a two minute walk away.There is lots of wildlife - bald eagles, deer, grouse, and of course gulls, guillemots, and ducks. Beautiful sunrises and moonlit seas. The house is at the end of the road in a small village. While there is good wifi in the house, the area has limited cellular coverage. The house was comfortable and cute - but is a 150 year old house, so the rooms are small, the ceilings low, and the floors a little uneven. Nothing is fancy or high end, but all of this provides an authentic Petit da Grat experience. We cooked most evenings and mornings and had everything we needed for simple meals. The area is very interesting. There is a strong Acadian French influence, nice little parks with beaches and lighthouses, and it is still largely a region based on fishing. The small town of Arichat is a ten minute drive and has a grocery store, gas station, pharmacy and a few local restaurants. Check opening days and hours closely as not all are open all the time. We highly recommend Sailor's Rest for those looking for an "off the beaten path" vacation. It was an easy drive from Halifax, which has lots of airline connections. Good options from Sailor's Rest to explore Cape Breton Island. You will not find a more beautiful view and relaxing spot!
