Charming home on the Strait of Canso

Behie House is far from crowds and close to nature - a hidden gem in Guysborough County for those seeking a tranquil getaway. Relax in our precious 3-bedroom home, with a spacious kitchen and dining area for large groups and a fully screened veranda located on a rural property where kids and animals can play.

Wake up to gorgeous views and come downstairs to enjoy your morning coffee overlooking the Strait of Canso and Cape Breton Island.

A 25 minute drive to Guysborough and Cape Breton, Behie House serves as a great home base for exploring southern Cape Breton and the Eastern Shore. Explore our varied beaches to do some beachcombing, sightseeing, sunbathing, or swimming, and keep on the lookout for hiking trails - directions are provided to both on the fridge in the house (including some recommended, more hidden local areas!)

We are open year round, so in the fall and winter you can expect a warm, cozy retreat with heat pumps on all levels of the house. So if you're looking for a wonderful getaway in the colder months, or even just a home all your own while you're on a business trip, Behie House is the perfect fit.
