The space:
We bought this cottage in 2008 as a gathering place for our family. We have always dreamed of owning a cottage right on the ocean and we are excited to share it with you. It is a place of gathering, connecting and sharing, where friends and family can come together to refuel, step away from the demands of everyday life, and build lasting memories together.
The open concept kitchen, living and dining room invite conversation and cozy relaxation by the wood fireplace. Enjoy dinners around the diner table, with plenty more room for dining and conversation around the large kitchen island or curl up in the family room with a good book from our library, or play a game together from our game selection.
The cottage can comfortably sleep 8 guests (7 adults and 1 child). There are three bedrooms and one common sleeping area. The primary bedroom has a queen sized bed and an en-suite bathroom that includes a full bath, washer and dryer. The second bedroom has a double bed and is next to a full 3 piece bathroom. The third bedroom has a double bed. The common room has a double/single bunk bed. All bedrooms offer quiet comfort, cozy duvets, and pillows inviting you to settle in and get comfortable. There are extra towels and basic amenities available.
***All linens, duvet covers and shams are freshly washed and pressed between guests. Extra care is taken to clean and disinfect commonly touches areas and surfaces.
***The Cape has a digital key pad for entry, which offers guests a contact free self check in and check out.
Take advantage of this opportunity to unwind and enjoy the charm of our community, Prospect Village, Peggy’s Cove and all the area has to offer.

Summary: Loved the house. Roomy enough for our group of 6. The house is very clean, well equipped and feels like a home away from home. The location is beautiful. Feels like a rural location but very close to downtown Halifax and many activities. The hosts were great, reaching out to make sure all was good and answering any questions we had. I would recommend this home!! Thank you Cheryl
