Pleasant View Bed & Breakfast and Guest House is centrally located in the heart of Nova Scotia’s scenic Lighthouse Route on the South Shore region. Our 20-acre property is adjacent to the Rails to Trails nature trail for those who enjoy hiking, biking, or a simple, pleasant stroll through the countryside. The trail affords a unique opportunity to view some of the abundant wildlife in the area. Guests can also go fishing off the rocks in front of the house.
The port city of Halifax and its historic waterfront boardwalk is within an easy driving distance on a major highway. Also within easy distance is Queensland Beach, a great spot for those wishing to take a casual walk alongside the ocean or to simply relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of the waves breaking on the shore.
The Lighthouse Route offers a variety of things to see and do. Travel down the scenic coastal route to the world-famous Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse. The nearby postcard-perfect town of Mahone Bay is a treasury of history, culture and 19th-century architecture. The charming main street hosts an assortment of art galleries, specialty shops, and living museums – all within an easy stroll.
