Cottage holiday rentals in Hants County

Shawna's place was fantastic. It was clean and welcoming, quiet and secluded, with great amenities. We enjoyed the hot tub and the firepit with a view. Thank you Shawna for a great stay!

The cabin was delightful and very well equipped- it had everything we needed and more! The hot tub was great way to start and end the day. No complaints.

We had a lovely stay at Melanie's cottage. The cottage was very spacious, clean and had absolutely everything that we needed. (bottle of wine was a nice touch) Melanie was very responsive to our questions and responded right away. The cottage is on a busy street but is relatively quiet when you are on the beautiful front deck. We would recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to explore the area.

We had an excellent time at Birchwood. The cabin is cozy and clean and the property is well maintained. The location is incredible, right on a beautiful lake with lots of privacy. The owners are friendly and accomodating. Can't recommend enough.

As described. Lovely spot. Quiet. Beautiful view and peepers lovely to fall asleep too

Joseph’s place is a charming cottage situated a short drive from downtown Halifax, extremely close to grocery stores. It sits on a picturesque cove with unobstructed views of the rugged landscape and water. The cottage has every amenity one could want, including a hot tub. My husband and I enjoyed sharing a glass of wine under the stars while listening to the waves crashing on the rocks. Our family enjoyed sharing time together in the living areas and preparing a meal together in the well equipped kitchen. The beds were incredibly comfortable! We wish we had stayed longer to enjoy all the hiking trails and sightseeing in the area.

This adorable and extremely well laid out cottage was fantastic. Lots of room, beautifully decorated and very comfortable and inviting. Also a beautiful location and very relaxing. Cant wait to go back

Herring Hole was a beautiful choice! You can’t go wrong! From spacious surroundings, to cozy decor and an inviting deck overlooking the bay, to a genuine experience of a small coastal fishing village, this place checked all the boxes!! It’s about a 25 minute drive to Halifax but the scenery is beautiful so time travels by quickly! We would book this place again without any further thought! Kim even had freshly ground coffee available for our morning coffees on the deck!

This cottage did not disappoint! Great views and the cottage felt cozy and comfortable. Would absolutely stay here again!

Great place with an outstanding hosts. Instructions were simple and clear. View of the water is beautiful with lots of wildlife in the area. Plenty to do or not to do if you choose.

It's a beautiful cottage and well equipped. It was absolutely spotless with some very nice touches, e.g. spare slippers, plenty of dog blankets and towels, an outside hose, loads of towels available, laundry detergent, outside laundry lines....There's plenty of green areas around so our dog could freely chase her ball. Myrtle quickly addressed all questions and issues. The local beach is only a couple of kilometres down the road, but with a stroller and a dog it was more convenient to drive rather than walk. We initially struggled to find the place, but it's at the far end of the village when coming from Parrsboro. Overall, it's a lovely place and we would definitely stay again.

This was the perfect rustic get-away! The kids had so much to do, and mom and dad had lots of space to relax. The diving dock was a hit (even in the cold) and kayaks were awesome! The boat washroom at the beach was such a nice touch and was super clean, the beach toys and kids toys in the cabin were great. I’m so thankful to have had an affordable place to unplug with my family- Thank you Keith and Sarah!!

Beautiful location, great place, and <15 minutes to restaurants and shops. We stayed with our family of 4 and truly enjoyed every minute!! The house has the most breathtaking views- you can see both sunrise and sunset at this time of year (June). Thoughtful items throughout the house, including puzzles and fun books and extremely clean linens. Also, I appreciated the windows and curtains for privacy, if needed. Thank you so much!

Ian and Sandi’s family cottage was perfect, like finding a piece of paradise. It was even more beautiful than the pictures and descriptions portrayed. Beds and linens were amazing, kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need, beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. It’s spacious both inside and out. We can’t wait to go back.

Rob and Jacquie responded to our every question with professionalism and positivity. Our stay was absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed the lake the outdoor fire pit,the view, the kitchen. The kitchen was well equipped with everything that we needed. We’re a mature, group of women that thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank Patty

The place was absolutely beautiful and very spacious. A lot of thought went into every detail of the space. Plenty of equipment in the kitchen for hosting. It was a lovely spot.

We had an awesome stay — it is a beautiful home, very clean, with everything you need for the stay. It is a beautiful private location on a lake, very peaceful and relaxing. Danny and Lynn were super responsive to all my messages, and everything was as stated in the listing. Highly recommend!

Beautiful cabin with plenty of room, a stunning view, and decent amenities. Absolutely no complaints.

This place was incredible! Close enough to Halifax to enjoy the city but remote and quaint to enjoy the seaside life. The accommodation was very well stocked with coffee, milk, bread, treats! Highly recommend!

This place is stunning! Within 5 minutes of arriving we knew this was going to be a great trip. Richie was very helpful and the arrival was smooth. The location is so picturesque; the view is amazing. The 3 beaches are completely private. The walk through the small path to the rocks was a great discovery and we spent time just sitting on the rocks enjoying the scenery. The house is beautiful and everything you could possibly need was provided. Even the towels were so soft and fluffy. The wood burning stove was a real treat on a chilly evening. The house is spotlessly clean and very well decorated. It’s a quiet area but not far from Peggy’s Cove or Halifax. Overall I can recommend this property enough. If Richie ever decides to sell I’ll be first in the queue. Overall a fantastic stay and we’ll definitely be back. Thanks Richie :)

* the kitchen and the house in general are extremely well-equipped * beautiful furnishings and design elements * extraordinary property with the woods, stream, bridge, yoga platform, hammocks & walking trails * the firepit & red Adirondack chairs provided a beautiful setting for conversation

Rob’s lakeside cottage was beautiful! The cottage was well equipped and very clean. The outdoor space included a stunning stone patio, a fire pit and water equipment ( paddle board and floats) to enjoy the beautiful lake.

We loved our stay, the place is special. We had deer come right into the yard and the fireflies, at night, in the back field, was an unexpected and fantastic experience! Thank you so much, we cant wait to come back!!

We had an excellent stay. Close to all the amenities, clean, great view of the river. Chis and Jen were great to deal with. Hopefully we’ll be back next year ;)
