1. Coastal cottage with stunning ocean views in Margaree Harbour (from USD 237)

Deep Blue Sea Cottage is a gorgeous HomeAway coastal cottage on a 130-acre (132.6-hectare) property five minutes from the Cabot Trail. Please note that the minimum required stay is seven nights. Perfectly designed, this cottage contains all of the charm of a real coastal cottage, with excellent amenities, and lots of privacy in a spectacular setting with fantastic views of the ocean. This spacious deck is a good place for spotting lobster boats, eagles, moose, and bobcats. Sometimes foxes make appearances and whales pass by most of the time during the year. You will wake up to these views each morning and enjoy them all day. Relax in this wall-to-wall veranda, which is rustic yet contemporary at the same time. This is clearly the best spot for you to relax, listen to music, and, of course, admire the scenic landscapes right within your reach. We aren’t exaggerating when we say the sunsets will take your breath away. Marvel at this spectacular sight from the outdoor deck or the veranda; beauty is lurking around the corner here in this gorgeous coastal cottage. Enter the sizable and airy well-equipped kitchen, with views of the ocean and beach from the stove area. The views are great, but nothing beats a cosy bed and soft pillows come night time. Still, you can enjoy the best of both worlds, as this bright well-ventilated room also gives you stunning views of the ocean and island.

2. Beautiful hideaway with hill views in Breton Cove (from 162 USD)

This House On The Hill is located in Breton Cove, a tiny fishing community on the Cabot Trail. Hidden away in the woods with a 220-metre (722-foot) driveway, this vacation rental affords total privacy. It’s an ideal getaway for visitors that would like to run away from the hectic city life. However, please note that the minimum stay required for actual bookings is five nights. The house has a terrace at the front and a raised deck at the rear, with an additional terrace at the entrance to the sun room. There is ample parking for vehicles. The warm and spacious living room sure does look cosy and homely. Snuggle up against one of those plush couches and grab a book from the shelf, the perfect way to spend a lazy Sunday! The wood furnishings of the sun room give off a rustic and bucolic vibe, a good calming change for visitors from the hectic city life. Just like the master bedroom, the second bedroom has a queen-sized bed and a small nook with a small desk, bookshelves, and a closet. Sometimes all you need after a long and tiring day is a good soak in a bubbling tub of scented water. Head to the bathroom upstairs that includes a cast-iron bathtub and a shower.

This truly outstanding HomeAway estate property is located in the prestigious Old Bedford neighbourhood, offering a perfect and enjoyable stay in the Halifax area. Enter the large comfortable setting of a living room with a fireplace and lovely windows. Sink into the plush softness of the sofa, and marvel at the polished wooden floors, a true castle fit for a princess (or prince) indeed! The kitchen has everything you need and more, including an oven, microwave, gas stove, dishwasher, and fridge with freezer, set amongst black granite countertops. Look out and you will see the back yard grounds, pool and deck. Now you never have to wander what your kids are up to when you are in the kitchen! This is the view you can enjoy as you whip up a feast in the kitchen. This lovely slide in the in-ground pool surrounded by a wrought-iron fence allows you to slide down into the cold refreshing water, what fun! A pool house, featuring a bar and bathroom with shower, is just around the corner, all available for your use. Laze on these lounge chairs, who says you need a beach to get a killer tan? Though there are four bedrooms in this magical home, the master bedroom features a walk-in closet, back deck, and an en suite bathroom. Refresh and recharge in this beautiful bath. Take a long bubbling soak in the hot tub, and rinse off in the glass-enclosed shower area. However, do note that the minimum required stay in this vacation rental is six nights.
