About this property

Cozy Bells Cove Retreat – Stylish Loft with Harbour Views & Walkability

This stylish 500-square-foot loft offers a cozy, modern retreat overlooking Shelburne Harbour; ideal for couples, solo travelers, and guests seeking a quiet, comfortable place to settle in for a few nights or longer. The open-concept layout makes the space feel airy and inviting, with large south-facing windows that flood the loft with natural light and provide peaceful harbour views in every season.

The loft is accessed via a secure ladder, giving it a true loft feel and unique character. While compact, the space is thoughtfully designed and fully equipped, including a modern kitchen for preparing meals, a washer and dryer for added convenience, and high-speed Wi-Fi for guests who need to stay connected or work remotely.

The living area is comfortable and uncluttered, perfect for unwinding with a book, enjoying streaming TV, or simply taking in the view. A heat pump provides easy climate control, keeping the loft warm in winter and cool in summer.

Outside, a private patio with a dining set overlooks the harbour; an ideal spot for morning coffee, fresh air, or a quiet evening drink. The waterfront is just steps away, and several beautiful beaches are a short drive from the property for guests looking to explore the South Shore.

Well-suited for guests seeking calm, comfort, and a home-like stay, this loft is a welcoming base whether you’re here to relax, focus, or explore Shelburne and the surrounding coastline.
