About this property

Beach Cottage on Hill

This beautiful beachside cottage is a great escape for a couple or small family.

With a view of the Northumberland Strait, it is the last cottage on the hill before the ramp down to a spectacular red sand beach. When the tide comes in during the day over the hot sand, the warm gulf stream water creates a perfect swimming opportunity. Think warm water with sand underfoot for literally miles . At low tide, you can walk for miles searching for shells, or just for exercise.

The 2-bedroom cottage has an open and well-equipped kitchen and dining room, as well as bathroom with shower. Each bedroom has a queen bed and there is a third queen bed fold-out which is part of the living room sectional. There is a large covered deck with a gas BBQ and plenty of outdoor furniture.

View is absolutely beautiful.
Norah was a pleasure to deal with. Even offered a few days extra for free as Fiona was coming our way. Cottage was nice and cozy for our stay and beautiful beaches went for miles.

Relaxing and cosy
It a place to relax, read a book and eat lobster ( check out Chases for lobster). Walking on the beach at low tide is fun. Swimming is good if you have water shoes. There were no beach chairs to laze around the beach.

About the host

Hosted by Norah Topping

Host profile image
We are a retired Nova Scotia couple who enjoy hosting guests at our summer cottage when it is not in use by the family.

Why they chose this property

This is a lovely Nova Scotia beach cottage, within steps of the greatest swimming and walking beach. Built in 1996, we would like for it to be better used.

What makes this property unique

Right next to a large sand beach on the Sunrise Trail, this cottage is suitable for one or two couples or a small family. It is a place for the enjoyment of nature including fabulous swimming at high tide and miles of sand at low tide. This being a tidal beach, some years there are a few rocks showing near the shore and other years it is completely sand covered - one of the marvels of nature.
