Amherst Shore Country Inn  

On Nova Scotia’s Northumberland Strait in Lorneville, just outside Amherst. This oceanfront beach inn sits on a knoll with sweeping sea views and a park-like shoreline. It’s minutes from Tidnish Dock Provincial Park (about a 4‑minute drive) and a short hop to Winegarden Estate Ltd.

A century-old farmhouse turned country inn, run by the Laceby family since 1980. Expect relaxed, maritime charm, a seaside gazebo, terrace and garden spaces, plus easy walks on the exposed sand flats at low tide. The property has eight air-conditioned rooms with refrigerators, satellite TV and private bathrooms—simple comforts with salty views.

Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and stroll the beach. On-site perks include a terrace and garden, picnic and barbecue areas, a library, gift shop/newsstand, complimentary Wi‑Fi and free self-parking. The inn balances historic character with practical conveniences for a laid-back coastal stay.

Complimentary wireless internet and an on-site computer station keep you connected. Rooms include desks and phones for light work or planning your local adventures.

Enjoy meals at the on-site restaurant '3 Courses' (Thursday to Sunday) and a full breakfast served daily from 8:00–9:00 AM for a fee. Coffee and tea are available in the common area, and the kitchen emphasizes hearty, satisfying fare suited to the coastal setting.
