Perfection!
Our family( husband, wife and adult daughter) spent 3 nights in this beautiful renovated church. The location was so convenient for getting into Halifax ( 15 minute drive to downtown) but set in a rural quiet and peaceful little village. Brett and Lara were amazing hosts, extremely knowledgeable about the history of the church and the surrounding area Would definitely recommend and hope to visit again one day

Truly Memorable Accommodations!
We loved staying at Brett and Lara’s place. The decor, craftsmanship and attention to detail of this property cannot be beat! Our hosts anticipated our every need. Coming back to a clean and comfortable place was so welcome. We enjoyed talking with Brett and finding out about the history of the church, the paintings and the artifacts. We’d happily stay there again when we return to Halifax.

A magical church of music and memories
WOW! was oir immediate first impression upon arrival. Brett welcomed us with a friendly run down of the property and the locale. After that, the hosts left us to our holiday, and were on hand if we needed them. The location is excellent. We were in striking distajce of Peggy's Cove and Halifax centre, and only an hour drive to both Wolfville and Lunenburg. We have already threatened that we will return next year, probably when the season kicks off. This time around we were really lucky with the weather, and lucky enough that the weather turned to allow us a whole day to enjoy the property. Sad to leave. Excited to come back. Thank you to Brett and Lara for this wonderful place and their warming hospitality.

WOW
Initally felt like walking into a museum with SO much to look at. Brett gave the initial tour and info and we had great conversations. We got acclaimated incredibly quickly. everything was top notch. Great towels, great pillows, great kitchen appliances and tools and toys...For what we wanted to do it was the perfect location. Away from the City but close enough to go too if we wanted. Drove east, Drove west, had great meals in small lovely places. Was nice cause its off season. OMG..Nothing to say except perfect for what we needed and wanted.

A Memorable Stay
Just a stunning renovation that Brett and Lara have completed on this old church. I'm a regular visitor to Halifax and the bar is generally quite low for places to stay. A lot of places in Halifax are basement suites so as a tall person it's a real treat to not bump my head on everything. But Brett and Lara's place is really in a league all its own. Really memorable stay and I hope to return.
