Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Halifax

We had a lovely weekend get away stay. The dome had all the necessities as well as a sauna. Lots of wildlife too.

We enjoyed staying at Robert's fabulously decorated home. It is a unique home in a beautiful setting; it's not often we get to stay in a home with exotic birds, friendly ducks, and a dinosaur room. And Robert is an excellent host. It's a great location for seeing the area - many attractions within a 1-2 hour drive. We would stay here again if our travels bring us back to Nova Scotia.

Stayed at Anni's place for 2 nights. The check-in was super easy and well explained. We had to bring two vehicles and there was no problem parking both in their huge driveway. The unit is very private, spacious and bright. Lots of windows and has a lovely deck space. It was clean and well stocked. There is no stove but the one-burner induction cook top along with the toaster oven and microwave was all that we needed. The bed and living room furniture were comfortable and there is a lovely large TV with Netflix and live TV, etc. which provided lots of ertainment even for us technologically impaired individuals. The unit is located in a very nice, quiet area in an excellent location close to everything that you would need. Anni is a gracious host and always responds to messages right away. I would not hestitate to recommend this unit for both long or short term stays and would definitely stay again.

10/10! Colin’s place was perfect for our weekend in Halifax. Generous host that helps make you feel right at home. Clean, cozy, & well curated. Very spacious as well. Easy walking distance to explore a cool part of town and grab a bite to eat. Lots of solid restaurants and shops nearby! Wouldn’t second guess booking it!

Jordan's home was absolutely magical! Such a pristine landscape, beautiful and spacious home with oustanding views from every window. We used the lovely fireplace, the jacuzzi and sauna - amazing. It was very private and peaceful, and was hard to leave it was so fantastic! Jordan was responsive and accomodated an early check-in where he could which we super appreciated. Highly recommend, would absolutely go back! Thank you!!!

We had a wonderful stay at this property - 8 family members on a girls weekend! The house was beautiful, better than the pictures. The kitchen/living room/dining room space was ideal for games, cooking and lots of fun. Everything was so clean and ready to use. Kim was super responsive with any questions I had and everything was really smooth. I would stay here again! It's useful to note for prospective guests - there is a 1-bedroom guesthouse directly behind the main house which does lie between the house and the yard/view, so it didn't feel quite as private as I thought it would be. But - we were there on a rainy weekend, so our group and the guesthouse renters stayed inside all weekend and it was like they weren't even there! I would suggest if you are renting this space for outdoor space, it might not suit those needs. Overall a lovely place to stay and we had a fabulous weekend.

Coburn, I must say you and your family have put in a tremendous amount of work to create a space for yourselves and your guests. It felt like home, everything was well appointed and we didn’t lack for anything. Lots of style right down to your lovely collections, original wood beams with modern amenities. We enjoyed after our daily adventures coming home to deer grazing in the meadow or the resident mamma and baby porcupines. If we know of anyone travelling your way, we will suggest they check out Hubbards as place to stay. Thank you for the experience.

From the moment we walked into Jennifer’s home we felt so comfortable. The home is beautifully laid out and was very clean. It had everything we could have needed for our stay. Jennifer was so helpful with recommendations of things to do in the area and she was always very quick to respond to any questions. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the Halifax area.

The place was comfortable and good value for money. Peaceful neighborhood away from the busy Halifax area. It had the necessary amenities and Barry was very accommodating and friendly.

Loved our stay. Great space and very comfortable bed! Great location too.

Victoria has created such a cozy and welcoming space with an absolutely gorgeous view. Everything is spotless and pristine, the bed was super comfortable, and she has provided all you need for a home away from home. We enjoyed meeting her very sociable chickens and were able to truly relax in between our runs into Halifax for fabulous food, and a quick trip to Peggy’s Cove. Although our stay was brief, we had a simply marvelous time. Thank you so much, Victoria!

We stayed for 6 months and it was absolutely wonderful! There were lots of beaches and trails nearby to take our dog. The views were amazing! We even saw a seal once! The apartment was beautiful as well, especially the kitchen (as someone who loves to cook and bake it was perfect!) It's the perfect distance from Halifax if you don't like the bustle of a city but still want to do some sightseeing if you don't mind driving a bit! Overall we loved every part of our stay :)

very nice / comfortable basement apartment...interior is as nice as it shows. The outside hot tub area is also very nice but the area surrounding it is still under construction, so it's not as attractive as the rest. I'm sure that will improve with time. A bit of noise from the apartment above but nothing we couldn't tolerate. Beds comfortable and good WiFi. Neighborhood is quiet and a nice park across the street.

Very clean and quaint spot to stay at. The theatre room was fantastic. Made my weeks stay a great time!

We had such a wonderful stay. The property is so beautifully landscaped by Bruce and Leesa. You can see the love and care they put into it. The inside was no exception. It felt warm and inviting. Leesa and Bruce are wonderful people. Very friendly and put us at ease right away. Really really nice couple. Don't think twice about booking this place. You will not be disappointed. We will be coming back and will book Leesa and Bruce's place without a question. Thanks for making us feel so welcomed.

Jillian's spot is perfect for a short or long Halifax stay. Highly walkable to everything, incredibly clean with lovely decor, cozy vibes (with enough room to stretch out), and Jillian herself was super responsive and helpful. Honestly, couldn't have been any better!

Beautiful spot for a weekend away with the girls! Very peaceful and clean juts as described!

It was an interesting stay for the host and for our group. First, I got a message that the air conditioning had failed the day before we arrived and the repair people were not available until after our stay. So the hosts put fans in all of the rooms! Then the hurricane came and it was not safe to stay. We left the day the hosts were coming to secure the house for the storm. And they initiated a refund for the days we could not stay! You can’t ask for more from hosts! The house is lovely and a great place to stay!

This place was an outstanding find! Our family had a wonderful holiday. My 86 year old father enjoyed having a main floor bedroom. The place was comfortable and we enjoyed the 2nd floor outdoor fireplace at sunset. Jesse was an amazing host. I highly recommend.

The location is absolutely beautiful and more spacious than the photos show. We enjoyed watching the wildlife and rolling fog from the bright open windows throughout the house. The host is very excited to share the experience with guests by providing kayaks and local food/ activity recommendations. The property is well looked after by a neighbor / property manager who has great recommendations as well! The property is remote but still within reasonable driving distance of Halifax and other tourist destinations. We recommend you get groceries on your way in though as there are limited grocery options in immediate area. Farmers markets are easily found and have best of NS. Highly recommend for a beautiful and relaxing vacation!
