I traveled to Cape Breton to visit with my daughter who is studying there. Rick and Connie opened not only their home, but their hearts to us. I would recommend this B&B to anyone. It is indeed a home away from home. You will not be disappointed!. more

There isn't anything worth knowing about Nova Scotia and especially Cape Breton that Rick and Connie don't know.

Once inside, one can't help but notice the homey touches that they have... more
