The 2 cottages are located in Black Point Nova Scotia, on St. Margarets Bay. The local name for this area is Puddle Bay. It has a long history of being "cottage country" and there are many locals you'll meet who will be able to tell you stories about this location. The view from the front deck of the 2 cottages is of the open ocean of St. Margarets Bay. Many times seals, porpoises and the occasional minke whale have been spotted. The shoreline is accessible during mid to low tide and it's a great spot for beachcombing. There are 2 sandy beaches within walking distance and 4 within a 3-10 minute drive. Perfect for beach wedding pictures.
