Local Attractions

The Annapolis Valley is rich in the variety of its attractions, the booming wine industry, the agricultural
legacy as seen in the numerous farmers markets, the intense and turbulent history of the Acadian settlers and the highest tide changes in the world. For the more active, there are also a variety of hiking and walking trails to explore throughout the valley.

A wide range of restaurants and pubs are to be found in Wolfville and surrounding areas. Our B&B adjoins the Domaine de Grand Pré Winery and many of our guests stroll through the vineyards for dinner at Le Caveau, their renowned fine dining restaurant.

Wineries, Cideries, Craft Breweries and Distilleries

There is a lot of tasting to do! There are many wineries, craft breweries, cideries and a distillery in and around the Wolfville area to explore, many of which have won awards for their products.

After having enjoyed tastings at various wineries, savour an alfresco meal on one of their patios.

The history of the Acadian Settlers in Grand Pré

In 2012, UNESCO declared the 1300 hectares of the Grand Pré Cultural Landscape a World Heritage Site, as a tribute to the significant history of the Acadian Settlers. The viewpoint overlooking the landscape is a few minutes’ walk through the vineyards from our B&B.

The Grand-Pré National Historic Site dedicated to preserving and presenting the history of the Acadians is a five-minute drive away.

 

The highest tides in the world

The Bay of Fundy and the Minas Basin have the highest tide changes in the world, vividly illustrated in the adjoining time-lapse video of the quaint Halls Harbor & lobster pound on the Fundy shore.

The Eagle Watch at Sheffield Mills from January to March is an extraordinary opportunity to get up close and experience the largest group of wintering bald eagles in eastern Canada!
