Cottage holiday rentals in Inverness

We booked super last minute so we could stay longer in town to visit my grandparents - we were beyond pleased with our stay! We had asked the host if there was any stores near by as we weren’t familiar with the area just to grab the kids some hot dogs but nothing was close nor near by and the host actually came down with hot dogs, buns and ketchup for my kids! Such a sweet gesture!!! The cabin was adorable - above expectation! Will definitely book again!

Thank you for your kindness and your welcome. Paradise place.

this is our 3rd stay at Katherine's beautiful spot overlooking the Mira river. Upon arrival, everything was exceptionally clean and very well stocked with everything you can possibly need. She made sure that firewood was stocked and the hot tub was cleaned and ready to go. Our group really enjoys the comfort and coziness of this beautiful home. the grounds are just beautiful, beds are very comfortable , and lots of room for the 8 of us! You need to bring nothing but your own food as she always has condiments on hand as well as a very nice welcome basket. we can not say enough good things about this property and the kindness of our hosts. We will definitely be back again!!!

Kirk and Kelley were very welcoming and lovely. The cottage was easy to locate and had some stunning views of the mountains and the lake. Thank you for hosting us and would indeed return for another get away in the future.

Last Min visit after our first place we had booked had to cancel due to waether and no power !!!! Place was cozy, and the hot tub and sauna was a nice added touch :) It had e everything needed and was close to restaurants and the beach.

The place fantastic and very clean! Hosts were communicative and very easy to reach. Would stay again!

A perfect little spot for a girls' getaway. Matthew came down to meet us (because I totally forgot about check in details) and gave us a quick rundown of everything. The hot tub was great, and we could see seals and eagles out on the ice. Very quiet and private, very clean and modern. Everything we needed was there, and when we had a delicious meal at the Groundswell just next door, Matthew was kind enough to send us away with cream and coffee that we forgot to bring. Definitely would recommend this place!

Great place! Really enjoyed the scenery and the linens/ beds were extremely comfortable. We hope to book again in the warmer months to really enjoy the outdoors.

Was the perfect spot. Great and clean.

Just as expected, very cozy and practical little cabin

This was our first time exploring the Cabot trail. The airbnb was the perfect getaway. It was very private, quiet, clean, and the views were breathtaking. The house was very clean, it had all the amenities we needed for the three days there. The driveway is a little tricky to find but once we found it the first time we were fine making mental markers. The host was fast with responding. More than enough space for the 6 of us, we also loved that there were two bathrooms. We will definitely rent again in the future!

We were visiting Cape Breton for Thanksgiving together with our in-laws. It was a great size for 4 people (and could probably hold a few more). Great layout, tastefully decorated, and was VERY clean. My mother-in-law was born and raised in the area, so we had a few visitors stop by - it was easy for them to find the place and there was space for them to park. The town had a power outage one evening - there was a knock at the door and the owner's father kindly brought us a propane lamp (we learned he lived in the area) which served us well for the rest of the evening. Power was back on when we woke the next day. Owner responded quickly to all messages. We would rent here again!

This is our third time visiting these cabins. They are fantastic each and every time we come. Our visit was in the winter this time and during a storm. The owner was very communicative with us, and the drive was plowed early so access was decent. There was a shovel provided that we used frequently. The heat pump kept the place very toasty. however I don't believe there is much insulation underneath the cabins, so if you are travelling in the winter, bring slippers or else you'll have very cold feet!

We are very happy with our seven night stay there. The kitchen was well equipped, so we were able to prepare almost all of our meals. Eileen greeted us with homemade biscuits and some thoughtful fridge provisions sufficient to get our next morning off to a cozy start. She made an effort to help us access Wi-Fi in the town of Inverness, but it turned out the cottage had good cell reception so we could use phones as hotspots to get a little work done such that we could really vacation in confidence. We were delighted to see a pair of bald eagles on the shore of the property, well as loons and kingfishers and many other birds. Our stay was in mid September, and the weather was delicious, sunny, with a crisp bite to the air on our last couple of days. Congratulations to Eileen on creating a charming getaway, I wish we had stayed three or four more days.

Ton’s cabin is great, nestled in a beautiful location, and Ton is always an excellent host

Nice cute little place. Near by Cape Breton attractions!

Wow! Just a great place and she has it set up with everything you need. I really hope to get back there soon. I could not think of a single thing that was wrong. Good job Trina!

What a beautiful week we had at this perfect little cottage! We enjoyed our time so much and will be sure to come back if we ever get the chance. Gabarus is pretty and sleepy and we had the best time exploring the surroundings, just behind the cottage, as well as the public Gull Cove Trail nearly. We took advantage of the beautiful fire place to cozy up inside, enjoyed a bonfire outside and even took a quick dip in the sea at the beach close by. The bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen where clean, cozy and more modern than you would expect them to be in a remote little cottage like this. Thank you so much for the amazing stay!

What a lovely spot. Very remote and peaceful. If you are looking for a private spot for some relaxation, peace and quiet - this is it! Also... And maybe the most important for me this trip... Kim was EXTREMELY helpful and responsive. I had to change my plans last minute and Kim was so understanding and helpful. Plus, she wrangled some help for me when I needed it. I liked the place, but I loved the hosts. Super grateful to these folks!

The house is spacious, modern and very clean. The surrounding area is beautiful, especially with the Colours in October. Each morning we enjoyed sitting with a cup of coffee in the crows nest upstairs and seeing the Bra d’Or Lake and hillsides. We had a problem with the front door lock when it often would not open or lock the door to our key presses. Aaron was responsive with providing a key to use instead. When we asked how to activate the floor heating which was not working, we were told to use the cozy gas fireplace to warm the house. That worked okay in conjunction with the ceiling fan.

This is our third stay. We love it here!

Loved everything about the cabin - may need an update for hot plate in kitchen but barbecue worked great. Attention to every detail including farmers matches, little flash lights, & rechargeable night light. We had 2 fabulous campfires, did stargazing & even had a full moon. We also enjoyed several Celtic Colours Festival events!

This was an awesome cottage right on the water. It was so nice to walk the beaches in Port Hood steps from the cottage. Managed to get in the last of Celtic Colors but were surprised by everything closing. We left on Monday morning but by Sunday almost everything was closed including one of the 2 restaurants in the town. The amenities in the cabin were great. Loved the views! Comfortable beds. Very clean. Highly recommend Patrick’s listing. You won’t regret it.

Absolutely marvelous accommodation for the two of us. Brand new appearance with the utmost in modern technology and architecture. Place was immaculate, well organized, and at the same time warm and comfy. The cabin design with many windows gives the vibe of an extravagant glamping experience with every single comfort and convenience. Breathtakingly beautiful views of lake, ocean and mountains including special lucky bonus viewing of some northern lights for us! Extra touches include heated floors, nature watching guides, and a thorough accounting of every dining, coffee and sightseeing opportunity nearby. As much as we enjoyed everything Cape Breton has to offer, we would consider returning just to experience this wonderful home again!
