The house and grounds are immaculate. Absolutely everything you need has been thought of and is in stock at the house. The view is perfection. The hosts are in touch when you need them but are also very respectful of your privacy. Baddeck is perfectly located for the Celtic Colors Festival. The upstairs loft room has no heat, but the hosts provide a good quality space heater for colder nights. All in all, the best property we have rented. It's a great space for family and friends to share. Each group has their own space to retreat to, and the common areas are perfect for gathering together for a meal, a glass of wine in front of the fireplace, or on the deck. Highly reommended.

This is a beloved, well-appointed property which is an excellent home-base for exploring Cape Breton. Our family would definitely stay there again.

This property was well suited to our vacation needs close to the town of Baddeck. Kitchen had loads of extras, beds were comfy and lots of space to hang out on the covered deck. Everyone loved the outside shower! Our family and friends enjoyed dinners around the large dining table. The listing was spot on and we were able to enjoy day trips and relax with a fire in the evening. Thank you Jan for all your great communications. You have a very special place at Kildare and we loved experiencing the history of your little piece of Cape Breton heaven.
