This is a stunning abode just steps (albeit on the rocks) from the sea. An architectural gem that is only fully appreciated when viewed in the context of the surrounding fishing towns. The views of St. Margarets Bay from both inside and outside of the house are terrific... with the added bonus of being away from the traffic around Peggy's Cove, with its iconic lighthouse being the major attraction in the area. The place is clearly new. The interior is bright and clean, furnished in a minimalist modern theme. The kitchen is well supplied, the appliances new. The (2) bedrooms are very similar... with comfortable king size beds. Bathrooms are spacious and clean. The main attraction noted above, Peggy's Cove, is just a short 10-15 minutes down the road... with an exceptional (but moderately challenging) hiking trail at Polly's Cove just minutes beyond that. We found several terrific restaurants from very (picnic table) casual (i.e. Shaws) to a bit more upscale (i.e. the Waterfront, maybe our fav) within a 20 minute drive. Halifax is just under an hour; the Bay of Fundy pushing an hour and a half but well worth the drive. Still, just spending time on the outdoor patio was a treat (especially at sunset). My wife and I loved our stay at this outstanding rental.
