RENTAL DESCRIPTION:

2 BR COTTAGE, SAND BEACH, FIREPLACE, JACUZZI. Located close to Halifax in the Queensland area, and across the street from a beautiful and warm sandy beach, the Periwinkle Cottage is the perfect Nova Scotia seaside get-away for a relaxing escape to find summer beach time or autumn colours. This quaint 100 year old cottage began its life as a carriage house, and was later converted into a two bedroom holiday property. All rooms enjoy fully vaulted cathedral ceilings providing a feeling of space and openness. The large outdoor wrap-around deck and BBQ adds to the available living area and provides fabulous views of the adjacent beach and ocean, while the stone wood-burning fireplace in the living room gives off ample early/late season heat and ambiance. The Periwinkle Cottage is an evolving blend of old and new; with quirky old-building idiosyncrasies and antiques situated alongside modern conveniences like quality linens, new granite kitchen counter tops, WIFI, a jetted tub, and Nespresso coffee maker. The two bedrooms are comfortable, with a queen sized pillow-topper double bed in one and built-in cozy children's bunks in the other. New addition Spring 2018 houses washer and dryer. The Periwinkle has been extensively renovated under new ownership while retaining its original charm. High Speed Internet is available. The cottage sleeps a maximum of four people and is best suited for either a couple, or a family with two children. This is a calm and relaxing location intended for slow days and recharging for a small group. It is less suitable for groups of four adults, and not appropriate for party gatherings. The Periwinkle Cottage is available for weekly rentals from lobster season in early June through to the climax of the intense autumn leaf colours in late October. The double-paned, easy siding Kohler windows, the stone fireplace, baseboard heaters and large new ceiling fan ensure comfort and warmth throughout the shoulder seasons, and the airiness of the vaulted ceilings ensure comfort and easy-breathing during the warmer summer months. This is a cozy little cottage, a perfect setting for exploring all Nova Scotia has to offer.

ACTIVITIES NEARBY:

The Perwinkle Cottage is perfectly situated at the Colwell's By The Sea site on the famous St. Margaret's Bay Road Lighthouse Route. It is less than 10 minutes from Hubbards and its fabulous market, 25 minutes from downtown Halifax, and less than 40 minutes to any of Peggy's Cove, Mahone Bay and Lunenburg. The International Airport is within 50 minutes. As far as beach time and water access are concerned, there are three wonderful sandy beaches within a mile of the cottage, including Whynaught's Beach directly across the street; the very popular Queensland Beach located one mile west towards Hubbards; and the more tranquil Cleveland Beach located one mile east toward Halifax. Another feature of the property is the fact that it provides direct access to the Rails to Trails pathway system, which parallels the road, and extends for more than 20 miles from the outskirts of Halifax to west of Hubbards and beyond. This trail is pancake flat and provides a nice experience along a comfortable and well maintained crushed gravel surface suitable for walking, running or cycling.

This property in Hubbards has every thing you would want in a vacation cottage. Being across the road from the beach is a blessing. Thank you.
