Come to the Light!

The Peggy's Cove Light, that is, (just around the corner): the glorious hiking in the Peggy's Cove Preservation Area (walking distance from our place), Halifax, Lunenburg , the world famous Fundy Tides, and other major attractions, all within easy driving distance.

It's all about the ocean, the land...and the people!

Oceanstone's accommodations are set in a location of rare natural beauty on the glorious shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Whether with family and friends, or business associates, our emphasis is on reconnection with the natural world, and with each other. (see our "SOUL" page for more detail, click HERE for an area map, or HERE for Seven Days of Vacation Suggestions).

Charming Oceanfront Cottages:

We built them in a traditional Nova Scotia style, and added the most comfortable beds and furnishings we could find. Each cottage has its own character, its own unique view: each assures privacy. Each looks out over some of the most beautiful, unspoiled scenes Nova Scotia has to offer, all set in the historic old village of Indian Harbour.

Superb fine dining:

Rhubarb Grill and Cafe is owned and operated by our son and chef, Paul who continues to surprise even us with his fresh, original creations. (Nominated for best in the province) For menus and seasonal specials, click HERE .

Relax. And rest easy...

For an unforgettable trip into the depths of relaxation, go one step further while you relax by the ocean, and have a massage from one of our certified masseuses. Call our front desk at 1-866-823-2160 for details or make an appointment when you book.

And, of course, there is the
ocean...

Majestic, magic, ever changing. Intoxicatingly lovely, and revitalizing. There really is nothing quite like it. Click HERE to learn more about the charm of the ocean that washes the shores at our back door.

Weddings, Conferences, and More!

Weddings: We provide a full wedding service all in one magical, beautiful and enchanting setting.  Our “chapel by the sea," a natural open space on the shore, has been described by many wedding parties as breathtaking and our oceanfront setting and grounds offer the perfect backdrop for stunning wedding photos.

Conferences/Workshops: If you seek Nova Scotia conference facilities or a place to hold a corporate team building meeting, Oceanstone is ideal for small and medium sized groups (12-45 people). Our cottages and conference room overlooking the ocean offer variety and "electricity" to our meetings. We offer on-site dining, a variety of meeting spaces, and a complete array of audio-visual aids and wireless internet connection, all on 20 beautiful, natural acres on the ocean.

Quiet, comfortable, all-natural and stunningly beautiful… our award-winning inn and oceanfront cottage rentals offer a uniquely Nova Scotian vacation experience with beautiful, comfortable accommodation, replete with old-world charm, wrapped in the mystery and the magic of the ocean.

Ahhh... the comfort of the Natural World...

Our grounds are all natural and have been for 15 years. We use, wherever possible, only natural ingrediants for cleaning, gardening, etc. And there are no artificial sprays or perfumes: our air is fresh off the Atlantic, thus helping to ensure a sound night’s sleep. Our gardens are completely organic, and our chef Paul incorporates (seasonally) their fresh ingredients as well as other local organic Nova Scotian products into his offerings.

From our gourmet dining room, to the spectacular surf, from cozy fireplaces inside and out, and the great tableau of stars in the coastal evening sky, Oceanstone provides a relaxed and uniquely Nova Scotian escape from a world stuck in fast-forward.
