The space
After being ambassadors at The Breakwater Inn in Peggy’s Cove, N.S., Shorty and the Missus moved to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, and are pleased to welcome you to their 200-year-old Cape Cod-type home.
Shorty’s place has a nautical theme, with Nova Scotia’s South Shore in mind.
Recently renovated to accommodate 7 people with 2 bedrooms upstairs, featuring a large master bedroom with a queen-size bed, the second room offers a double and single bed with a futon in the living room that sleeps two adults. All our pillows have memory foam GelCool applications. Our kitchen has all the amenities, and our large bathroom includes a bath, shower, and washer and dryer. Our Pergola on the back deck will cast enough light shade to make even a warm day enjoyable.
Shorty's Suite is a separate studio attached to the main house. It has a locked door to separate both sides. A larger group could choose to rent both sides.
Guest access
The main house has a kitchen, dining room, living room, and bathroom on the main floor, and two bedrooms on the second floor. The guests also have access to the balcony in a private backyard and a driveway with parking for two vehicles.
Other things to note
Because we offer a washer and dryer and extra bed linen and towels, we do not offer cleaning services for guests during their reservations.
