Our first trip to the East Coast was an unforgettable experience due to our stay at Colwell's By the Sea. From the moment we stepped into our cottage, we felt right at home. Our cottage had every amenity available and we enjoyed a warm fire every night. Our children went on a new adventure everyday in St. Margaret's Bay playing in the waves, collecting sea shells, looking at sea creatures and they even went fishing ! The cottage was close to all of the "must sees" such as Peggy's Cove, Lunenberg and Mahone Bay. Tom and Ann are wonderful hosts and go the extra mile to make sure their guests are enjoying their stay. Bernice K Ontario
