Originally known as Sampson's Cottages, Mark and Gina took over the family business in 2002 and made many updates. We call our business, "View of the Sea Cottages" after the Gaelic name, Sealladh Na Mara. We have loved welcoming visitors from around the world for over 20 years and looking forward to welcoming more for years to come. Our favourite visitors are those of family reunions. We just love seeing families coming together and enjoying themselves in seeing each other an experiencing what we have to offer.

Why they chose this property

We love the location of the cottages because they are at the mouth of the Bras d'Or Lake with the Atlantic Ocean yet 10 minutes from the town of North Sydney.. Our love of boating, fishing, hunting helped us fall in love for our area.

By being so central, just 10 minutes from North Sydney, everything the island has to offer is available for you when you visit.
