Recent Reviews in Barrington

Ye Olde Argyler Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Room was comfortable Delicious meal in the restaurant. Try the creamed lobster!"

The perfect East Coast experience. Guesthouse on 38 acres with 360° Ocean views.

10/10 Excellent

"My family of 5 stayed at Puffin Inn for two weeks. The property was clean and bright and in a beautiful location. It was also easy to get to Yarmouth and some outstanding beaches. The owners were absolutely lovely and gave us some great tips on the area and excellent restaurants - and they weren’t wrong on the food-all the restaurants were excellent. My husband, who loves cooking found the kitchen a little small to do too much and lacking in good kitchen gear but we made it through just the same! I would recommend this location."

Albert's

10/10 Excellent

"We had to change our reservation due to a ferry cancellation. Stephanie was so helpful in rebooking our room. As we were traveling from Maine, she also made restaurant suggestions close to the ferry terminal as we would be late arriving in Shelburne. The brewery was spot on. Stephanie greeted us when we arrived late and surprised us with a room upgrade. The room was spacious, well appointed and spotless. The next day we woke up to panoramic water views of the harbor...the perfect way to begin our Canadian travels. Everything about Albert's was fantastic!!!"

Scenic Shelburne home. Central location close to Shelburne Harbour.

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect ,"

Mamas by the sea B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Mamas by the Sea is an immaculate property! A beautiful little home by the sea that is well maintained, cozy, clean and had a very comfortable bed! The host is very nice, shared information about the area and made us feel at home! This was our 1st B and B experience and it was a highlight of our trip even though it was foggy! Highly recommend!"

Wildwood Motel

8/10 Good

"The bed was very comfortable, the room was quiet, the rate was reasonable. The room was pretty clean but had several cobwebs and spider webs (cleaned a while ago?). The floor was laminate - so much better than carpet. The bedspread was a white duvet insert - no washable cover, which was odd. The key was an actual key, can’t remember when the last time I used one!"

Whispering Waves Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"It was a lovely cottage with nice ocean view and little beach, had a good time"

Bright and Cozy Oceanview Cottage - minutes from white-sand beaches

8/10 Good

"Xo"

Modern Guest Suite with Gym & Sauna

10/10 Excellent

"We had an incredible experience and loved exploring Pubnico, learning about Acadian culture, and visiting the local sites and beaches.The family who hosted us were amazing and very helpful in ensuring we were comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. Very friendly family and open to help answer our questions about the local area.The space was very clean, open, and welcoming. It is the first Vrbo we ever stayed in that had an onsite gym and sauna!As well, there were books and NS info guides provided to help us plan out our days around Pubnico. This allowed us to reduce our digital engagement as we didn't need search where to go. We were more present and relaxed with the experience as a result. We toured a great portion of western Nova Scotia and our stay in Pubnico and enjoyed every minute!The guest house is also on a beautiful property close to the water, a creamery, and local Acadian museums. There are also many lovely beaches, lighthouses towards Yarmouth and also the opposite way towards Shelburne, and quaint restaurants. Everyone was friendly in the surrounding areas as well. We learned so much about I highly recommend starting each day very early for those who visit, for those visiting in the summer as we did, and visiting museums and related sites more so in the day and then visiting beaches in the late afternoon to avoid crowds. We really enjoyed Yarmouth and fell in love with Stoney Island Beach!We highly recommend staying here!"
