I certainly would recommend this experience!" - "Great central location in Pictou county, and specifically, New Glasgow. I was able to walk to restaurants, downtown, groceries, parks. And very quick (<10 minutes) drive to theatres, malls, and Stellarton, Westville, and about 20 minutes to the town of Pictou. The unit itself was very cozy, clean and has all the little things you need to stay comfortably away from home (kitchen utensils, appliances, towels, shampoo, Wifi , etc.) Michelle is a diligent renter, attention to detail is obvious, as the unit is very tidy, check-in/check-out is seamless, and has information on everything a tourist to the area would need to know about the area. Overall very happy with my stay, and I would definitely return to this unit if I came back to visit again. Thanks Michelle!"

The Stonehouse ~ Makers' Maisonette

Located along Nova Scotia's Northumberland Shore, in the quaint little downtown of Pictou/Piktuk, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People.

This stylish & peaceful 'Maisonette' is nestled in the historical 'Stonehouse', which is also home to the flagship store of TABITHA + CO™ and the Designer/Maker, Tabitha. Find little touches throughout the room, that were made with love by Tabitha and her staff. These items can be purchased in the storefront during business hours or arranged for a personal shopping experience.

With picturesque harbour views, walking distance to a Trans Canada (The Jitney Trail) trail system, the deCoste Performing Arts Centre, Cultural Hub, gift shops, galleries, museums, and restaurants. A short drive to several Northumberland Shore warm water beaches. The Sunrise Trail never disappoints, with a lavender and sheep farm only 15-minutes away or wet your palette with the taste of an internationally known winery 1-hour away.

Depending on the time of year, as you wake under the warmth of our Silk & Snow linens, you can sometimes hear the sounds of seagulls. Enjoy an early morning coffee on the covered upper deck during the warmer months of the year, and the smells of the warm Northumberland Straight salty sea air. Enjoy a homemade breakfast with one of our local restaurant partners, The Stone Soup Café.

Take in the historic Town of Pictou, also known as ‘The Birthplace of New Scotland’. This is where the first wave of Scottish settlers arrived on the Ship Hector in 1773. Did you know that the name Pictou derives from the Mi’kmaq name Piktuk, meaning explosive place? Perhaps a reference to possible methane bubbling up from coal seams below Pictou Harbour.

Enjoy a walk through town to learn more about the rich history. Did you know that John William Dawson, geologist, paleontologist, principal of McGill University was born in Pictou in 1820? Dawson was well known for finding the earliest known reptile fossils.

Make your way along the waterfront, visit the Heritage Hector Quay, the Northumberland Fisheries Museum and a stop for a mid afternoon break at another one of our restaurant partners, The Harbour House Ales & Spirits for a traditional East Coast menu.

With a longer stay and timing the visit, spend a Saturday morning at the New Glasgow Farmers' Market, a member of the non-profit cooperative Nova Scotia Farmers’ Market organization. Here you will find local entertainment, artisans and producers.

If you are a museum buff, the Museum of Industry in the adjacent Town of Stellarton is a great next stop or stay and relax in the Town of New Glasgow on the patio of East Side Avenue Dining, offering a big city vibe with the charm of a small town. The view of The Viola Desmond Art Display that now adorns the Bespoke Motor Company building, once known as Roseland Theatre. At this location Viola Desmond faced discrimination for the seat that she rightfully had taken in 1946. Her bravery led to a rallied movement for equality against racial segregation in Nova Scotia.

Retire for the evening on our covered deck that overlooks the Pictou Harbour waterfront, hear the bagpipe band perform or practice in front of the Hector Museum.

This is simply a sampling of what the Town of Pictou, and the county has to offer!
