We enjoyed our stay at the Little Hubbards house so much. It was fully stocked with everything you would need and then some. Everything we looked for, we found. The house is located on the main road through Hubbards which made for very easy access (walking distance) to all amenities, shops, restaurants and the Farmers Market. The house is also tucked back from the road so it felt very cozy and private. We are already talking about planning on coming back next summer. :)

House in Hubbards

The house and property was perfect. It’s not a fancy new beach house but it has everything you need and all the comforts of home. And it’s only minutes to the beaches and quick access to anywhere. We also enjoyed the assistance from Dave, the Property Manager, to let us know about the community market, local beaches and upcoming events! Our stay was fantabulous! Thank you Shelley for sharing your house with our little family!! Tom, Cindy & Ruby 🐾❤️🐾❤️

Great cottage with all the amenities. Beautifully decorated and so comfortable to stay there. We were able to sit outside on warm evenings and in the morning before breakfast on the deck and sit in the very comfortable lounge. We would come again to stay!

Perfect stay in a lovely house

The Little House was the perfect choice for the four of us. Not just well-equipped, but everything, from kitchen tools to reading glasses for puzzling, has been considered by the host and is exactly the way it should be. Highly recommend!

Perfect family retreat

Our family vacation here was perfect. The home is so cozy, not too big and not too small. The location is great, only 30 minutes from downtown Halifax, but secluded enough to enjoy peace and quiet. Our daughter loved playing in the big backyard, the Trellis Cafe was a great spot to grab a coffee, and The Shore Club for Mother’s Day dinner was phenomenal.Make sure to go to the local farmers market on Saturday’s!

Lovely little spot right in Hubbards

Such a nice little cottage for 4! We attended a wedding at the Hubbards Barn and it was so nice to be able to walk to and from the venue. The cottage is well equipped with almost everything you'll need in the kitchen, has comfortable bedrooms and a very cozy couch! We throughly enjoyed sitting out on the back deck in the afternoon, use of the fire pit in the evening and the overall east coast charm of the decorations throughout the house. One thing that we did find was missing was cooking oil so you might want to remember to bring some.
