Wonderful place to stay in a beautiful town. Ron was the perfect host and he has done a wonderful job restoring an historic building. He greeted us, showed us around, and was available if we had questions or needed suggestions. We hope to go back.

We had another great stay at Cunard House. The house has everything you would ever need. We had front row seats for some Lobster Carnival activities right on the front deck. It was nice to take our fur baby for a walk on the boardwalk every evening and enjoy some ice cream. The people in Pictou are so friendly, and there are plenty of good restaurants within walking distance. You couldn’t ask for better hosts than Ginny and Ron.

Cunard House is even more spacious than it appears in the photos. A beautiful, warm, well-restored home, equipped with all one needs for a pleasant stay. We especially enjoyed sitting on the front verandah with our morning coffees, the ocean in full view. Ron met us to check-in and gave us helpful information about the house and area. Very impressive what they have achieved in restoring Cunard House. We'd return in a heart beat.

Ron was so nice and met us when we got into town, very very nice guy. Things that were great for me is two ice trays in the freezer because I love my ice! And Kleenex and the laundry facilities. There was enough coffee and filters that I didn’t even have to bring any. We loved this place and can definitely recommend it!!!
