“Wonderful Find”

For a beautiful, spacious, warm and friendly alternative to staying in an urban hotel in the heart of a busy city, try A-1 Lakeview Bed and Breakfast. Located an lovely 25 minutes north of Halifax, this bed and breakfast boasts 7,000 feet of living space and only three, beautifully appointed guest rooms (one with a fireplace). With its own private dock on Porter's Lake with views from every room and two rooms with private balconies overlooking the lake, you'll experience a rural setting with easy access to other destinations in Nova Scotia. Owner Kim Keeping is a lovely hostess, great cook, and enjoyable conversationalist, who makes you feel at home and helps you plan your daily adventures if you wish. The two-story vaulted ceiling, large communal sitting area with fireplace, is frequently yours alone, and has sweeping views of the lake and surrounding countryside. What a marvelous find for the traveler who wants more than a hotel room.

“Excellent hotel, excellent service”

This hotel was very nice. A large pool and very friendly staff. The jacuzzi was perfect for two people, room had strong A/C, large bedroom and patio. This was a great way to wind down our vacation and explore Halifax on our last day in Nova Scotia.
