We are located in lovely unspoiled

Pugwash, Nova Scotia. 

 Our picturesque small town

is an ideal stopping place,

Pugwash is famous for our July 1st

Gathering of the Clans festival.  This year we have

added an annual  HarborFest, July 28-30, 

http://www.pugwashvillage.com/harbourfest.html

Pugwash is also known for our 

International Peace Conferences

(The Pugwash Movement, www.pugwash.org ).

We have two reknowned pewter factories,

lobster fishing, and spectacular sunsets -

- our street signs are in Gaelic! 

Come and see seals in the harbour

as well as eagles and great blue herons

 fishing on the river. 

 Why not visit our quiet, restful village -

all our Guests say they have

never slept better in their lives,

 listening to the waves and 

 the wind in the treetops. 

 Maybe it is because

we dry our sheets in the sunshine and fresh air

 and with the scent of nearby beach roses. 

You can walk to clean Crescent Beach in under a minute. 

There are also three Championship golf courses located nearby (see our Links). 

  Cross country skiing

and snowshoeing are wonderful here.  

  Downhill skiing at Ski Wentworth

http://www.skiwentworth.ca/ 

is only a short 20 minute drive away.

    We offer something for every pocket. 

 All rooms and the cottages are

 also provided with backpacks,

a beach bag and beach towels and a picnic set.
