About this property

Rose Cottage-Charming, Comfortable, Ocean Breezes

Lovely large 4-bedroom cottage with the ocean and access to the Minas Basin and the highest tides in the world just steps away. Located in the quiet village of Kingsport, a convenient jumping-off point to enjoy all that the Bay of Fundy, Annapolis Valley and Wolfville, Nova Scotia has to offer. Family-friendly cottage with all the amenities you need to be comfortable in your home away from home. Two decks, bbq, a large yard with fruit trees and blueberry bushes, Japanese soaking tub, and washer and dryer will make your stay easy.


Local beach and canteen with food and ice cream just a few minutes walk away. Lovely farm road with Little Library and gorgeous views of Blomidon right outside the door. The village of Canning, complete with a grocery store, cafe, cidery, liquor store, butcher, winery, and the excellent Dixie Baxter restaurant is a 6 minute drive away.


To keep the cottage as a calm, quiet sanctuary, it does not have a TV or dishwasher. Pets may be accommodated on a case-by-case basis. Please inquire for more details.


Host your next family gathering at Rose Cottage where there is lots of space to spread out and where you can make great memories.


The Space
There is a queen bedroom and a twin bedroom downstairs and a closed-in sun porch with a door, double bed, and blinds all around for privacy. Upstairs there is a queen bedroom with a seating area and wood stove, and a kids bedroom with two bunk beds.


The Area
Welcome to wine country! Quick access to Wolfville and Acadia University is only 20 minutes away. Visit the plethora of wineries, cideries, breweries, and distilleries nearby. Enjoy the excellent farmer's market on Saturday mornings and find locally made crafts, organic vegetables, meats, baked goods, and prepared foods. Walk around the quaint village of Wolfville for unique shops, cosy patios, and high quality restaurants. Check out the look off for an amazing view of the valley (and for an ice cream!) or head to Hall's Harbour for the freshest lobster you've ever tasted. Tons of adventures to be had right near by.


The Beach
Kingsport Beach is just a 5 minute walk down the street. Walk as long as you want on the bottom of the ocean at low tide to see amazing formations in the red sand. Find crabs and hermit crabs. And see if the cows are grazing oceanside. So much to explore and so many secret spots to discover. At high tide, explore via canoe and cliff jump into the ocean. Make sure to check your location first at low tide to ensure your safety. Then grab an ice cream at the wharf and enjoy the views.


Day Tripping
Great central location to jump off to South Shore locations such as Lunenburg, Chester, and Peggy's Cove. There are also many other Bay of Fundy locations such as Annapolis Royal for the historical forts and quaint village, and Digby for scallops and whale watching (all about 1-1.5 hours away). Spend the day in Halifax experiencing the great restaurants, museums, and other cultural attractions in about an hour's drive. So much to do and see from this quiet and peaceful location.


Extras
There are stand-up paddle boards and a bicycle for your use. We also have a bonus space available for your gathering. Please inquire.

Memorable moments in a peaceful place

We had a wonderful time as family at Rose Cottage, we wish we could have stayed longer. The owners were available throughout our stay to help us make the most of it and answer any questions we had. The place was very comfortable and warm! We would return without hesitation!

A Rose indeed

The setting and remodelled farm house were idyllic. Beautifully-treed grounds with many plants that could only grow in the Annapolis Valley. Many comfy places to sit, read, visit and eat, inside and out.

Wonderful place to stay! Place very clean with plenty of room for all of us! Close to beach

Our hosts were excellent to deal with. It was very hot when we were there . There were fans but no air conditioning. We would definitely go back

Rose Cottage and breathtaking Scenery

We had a wonderful short time at Rose Cottage, the cottage decor was lovely and the grounds were very inviting. We intended to visit the Grand Pre and Evangeline area, and took in the scenes at low tide and the beautiful dunes. Thank you, Athena and Chuck!

Beautiful stay for us and our wedding party!

The Rose Cottage is a beautiful, cozy place with a ton of character. So much so that we took a bunch of our wedding photos there! The outdoor space is just as nice as the indoors, and the surrounding area is spectacular. The hosts were great at informing on all the secret and local spots to hit up. Longspell farm across the road and Oakview Farm just down the road are so close and great spots for eggs, produce, and sausage! If you can time your stay with an Oakview strawberry or peach U-pick you're in for a treat. All the amenities, spacious, two showers - made getting ready a breeze. Hosts are very on top of things. 10/10!
