Summary: This is the best cottage we have rented for so many reasons! First, it was so clean that I thought we must have been the very first renters but the guest book entries went back to 2024 so I was extremely impressed with the cleanliness. The property manager left a lovely note welcoming us aling with a map of Peggy's Cove with a list of local attractions; the best of which she highlighted for us! On top of that, the cottage is very well appointed with anything we might need, including common things one might forget, i.e. toothbrushes (still in packaging), toothpaste, moisturizer, and floss!She also gifted us 6 farm fresh eggs which were divine! The beds and all furniture were incredibly comfortable. Suffice it to say, I did not want to leave!! With only three days in town we were busy visiting with friends and family so didn't quite have time to take the path down to the shore but that is on the list for next time. The location was downright enchanting as we had two deer sightings (they're much bigger than I would have thought!), and bird watching with the binoculars provided was a real treat! All in all, I can't wait to stay there next time we take this trip-hopefully for a much longer stay!!

Summary: My wife and I’s first visit to Nova Scotia and we could not have asked for a better house and a better host. Beth has thought of everything her guests might need. Immaculately clean home and so comfortable. Beth provided us with some eggs and coffee products. Combine with grocery stores in easy driving distance and it made for wonderful mornings. And the view? Incredible and inspiring. I loved my mornings and evenings on the little bench down the stairs leading to the bay. I got paid a visit by deer, a bald eagle and a good sized seal who would poke his head up and bark at me in the evenings! The view is just as good from the house. Not a fan of the outdoors? Then stay inside and enjoy the view of the bay from the house. The sunsets are awe inspiring. The hardest part is not wanting to leave such a beautiful place to explore Nova Scotia! But do get out and explore. The locals are so kind. So many good local dining establishments. The house puts you in easy driving range of Halifax and the charming small towns of the South Shore. One of the best vacations we have ever had! We hope to return. Thank you Beth and Sunset Cottage!

Jennifer O. Jun 16, 2025 04:50:41 AM
Summary: Can’t say enough good about this property. The pictures do not do it justice. The care and attention to comfort and beauty was evident in every room. Beautifully decorated- every amenity- spotless- and stunning views…we were so sad to leave. Beth- the host- obviously genuinely cares about creating an amazing guest experience from her personalized welcome note, fresh eggs and cream in the fridge, a kitchen fully stocked with spices, oil, coffee etc. Also- great yard with deck and bbq. And at the bottom of the garden a little path down to the water and a private bench for sunset views or communing with the forest and the water. Super private and perfectly situated to explore the area. Don’t miss the sunset!

Summary: Charming and LovelyWe will be back to enjoy this private but prime location in the heart of St Margaret’s Bay. Beth has thought of everything to make you feel pampered and at home. We will be back!

Summary: My husband and I had the best sleeps at Sunset Bank Cottage from June 6-8, 2025. The king mattress and pillows were so comfortable. The property is new, well appointed and offered lots of extras from an abundant supply of coffee and tea, to puzzles, binoculars, tons of towels and a full range of kitchen appliances. The property offers privacy, ample outdoor seating on the deck, and of course the sound and views of the ocean. Lots of birds in the area as well. Beth was very helpful and responsive. I would go back in a heartbeat. Maritimers are by far the warmest and friendliest of all.

Summary: Pictures don’t do it justice! The cottage is absolutely immaculate, clean, beautifully decorated, every detail so well thought out. The host was so helpful with touring the area, suggesting restaurants, shops and so easy to get in touch with. The kitchen is set up with everything you need to cook, bbq, keurig coffee machine (pods, tea, honey, sugar, cream), host put eggs from their family farm in the fridge for us, brought us a pot to cook lobster:) Bedrooms outfitted with high quality bedding, pillows, and mattress. Bathroom was spotless equipped with many toiletries. The view is spectacular with walk down to water and outdoor seating. It was completely private, quiet yet accessible and central to many places to go: Peggy’s Cove, fresh seafood, grocery stores close by. A definite complete Nova Scotia experience

Summary: Everything was amazing. Beautiful cottage, very clean and everything to make you feel at home. The sunsets were spectacular!! Beth was great in communication and ensuring we were well cared for. I look forward to our next visit

Summary: November 8th - November 13th There are not enough words to describe this property!! The amount of care that is put into everything is amazing. Beth has thought of EVERYTHING you could need...just when you think "Hmm, she probably doesn't have that..." just open a drawer, and there's a great chance you'll find it! The cottage was sparkling clean, the location/view was exactly as shown in the pics, it's phenomenal. We stayed there for 5 nights and I think we had the best sleep we've had in years! Will definitely be going back. This location is saved for a revisit for sure! 10 Stars
