HÀpnadsvÀckande Oceanfront Island Hem! PÄ avskild vik nÀra Lunenburg. Bil-Anpassat

*** Kanske den mest spektakulÀra hyra plats pÄ den södra kusten ***

VÀnligen se vÄrt hus turné video! Klicka pÄ bakpilen till vÀnster om vÄr huvudbild och klicka sedan pÄ spel. Eller sök "Fennel Old House" pÄ YouTube. Observera ocksÄ: För att hÄlla vÄrt hem billigt till kanadensare har vi sÀnkt vÄra priser för att kompensera för den svaga kanadensiska dollarn. VÄra priser Àr samma som för tvÄ Är sedan.

Upplev Nova Scotia ö-bor pÄ allra högsta pÄ fÀnkÄl gamla huset.

VÄr renoverade, turn-of-the-talet hem Àr tillgÀngligt via bil utan behov av en fÀrja eller bÄt. Vi sitter pÄ en spektakulÀr, multi-acre, havet plats, bara 30 fot frÄn vattnet. GrÀnsar av skog pÄ tre sidor, förbise vi en pittoresk, stenig vik och breda viken utanför. Den frÀmre dÀcket mot vattnet Àr enorma och hisnande ... Den enda hus du kan se frÄn vÄr frÀmre dÀck Àr en mil över viken! GÀsterna har kallat 180-graders utsikt över havet och öarna utanför en av de mest fantastiska de nÄgonsin sett. Inkluderat Àr en helt ny docka dÀr du kan binda upp en bÄt, bada bort av, lounge pÄ, och titta pÄ livet i havet.

VÄrt kök har nyligen renoverats (pics kommer snart!) Det har nya skÄp, vackra brasilianska tÀljsten rÀknare, nya rostfria vitvaror (inklusive en glas-top spis, fransk dörr kylskÄp med ismaskin, diskmaskin, bondgÄrd diskbÀnk, och nya dimbar, 3-fÀrgtemperatur belysning under rÀknarna. OcksÄ kommer med en mikrovÄgsugn, brödrost, kaffebryggare, matberedare och kvalitet porslin och bestick. Vi önskar dig glad matlagning!

De LaHave Islands: en unik destination

FrÄn den minut som du nÀrmar dig Crescent Beach, en populÀr 1. 2 mil lÄnga stranden som leder frÄn fastlandet ut till LaHave öarna, du vet att du har kommit till en speciell plats. Efter att ha kört ner den breda stranden (eller ta vÀgen bakom det), du följer en slingrande vÀg och korsa tvÄ broar. Du möter vykort vyer lÀngs varje tur - fÀrgglada hus, gamla fiske kajer, och fiske och fritidsbÄtar som passerar förbi. Vid slutet av vÀgen, hittar du fÀnkÄl Gammalt hus.

Bra lÀge

Vi Àr en sju minuters bilresa frÄn fyren Route, som gÄr fastlandet mellan Halifax och Yarmouth. Vi Àr en halv timmes bilresa frÄn Bridgewater, som Àr omrÄdets frÀmsta shopping / restaurang omrÄde. Vi Àr ett 40-minuters bilresa frÄn den historiska hamnstaden Lunenburg och turistmÄl i Mahone Bay, och en timme och en halv bilfÀrd sydvÀst om Halifax och flygplatsen (YHZ).

VÄr fastighet erbjuder charm och avskildhet, men ligger pÄ en levande ö gemenskap, pÄ den mest befolkade av de tvÄ dussin öar som utgör de LaHave öarna. Vi Àr ocksÄ och i ett omrÄde i södra kusten som har mycket att erbjuda turister.

The Outside

Njut av naturen frÄn vÄr spretigt, fint anlagd trÀdgÄrd med blomma trÀdgÄrdar, 4 soldÀck (inklusive ett tak dÀck och dÀck vid vattnet), flytdocka, skÀrm hus och skÀrmad lusthus uppe till höger pÄ stranden. Du kan simma frÄn bryggan, fÄnga krabbor, plocka vilda blÄbÀr och hallon, spela krocket och badminton, och gunga pÄ vÄr trÀd gunga. Eller bara koppla av, lyssna pÄ mÄsarna, titta pÄ fiskebÄtar i viken, och visa rÄdjur, sÀlar, utter och blÄ hÀger. PÄ kvÀllen, grill pÄ bakgÄrden, njuta av spektakulÀra solnedgÄngar över viken, och tÀnda en eld i vÄr utomhus eld grop för att grilla marshmallows.

The Inside

The fÀnkÄl Old House kan bekvÀmt sova sju vuxna i fyra sovrum. Det stora sovrummet har en stor, fÀst omklÀdningsrum, som ocksÄ rymmer en krubba. De andra tvÄ sovrummen pÄ andra vÄningen har tre enkelsÀngar. En nedre sovrummet har en dubbelsÀng och grÀnsar till badrummet.

VĂ„rt hem har utsikt stora fönster, trĂ€golv, period-lister, TRÄPANEL, och glimten i spĂ„ret vĂ€ggar i hela övervĂ„ningen. Kom hem frĂ„n en dag pĂ„ stranden eller turnera att vĂ€rma framför en av tvĂ„ vedspisar. Den första vĂ„ningen har ocksĂ„ Baseboard elvĂ€rme med termostater i varje rum, och bĂ€rbara, sĂ€kra, kraftfulla vĂ€rmare pĂ„ andra vĂ„ningen.

Ät dina mĂ„ltider vid matbordet medan du njuter av en vidöppen utsikt över viken och viken genom en stor bild fönster. Köket Ă€r fullt utrustat med en elektrisk spis, mikrovĂ„gsugn, brödrost, kaffebryggare, matberedare, kvalitet porslin och bestick, och mycket mer (vi Ă€lskar att laga mat!). I vardagsrummet finns en 27 "TV med begrĂ€nsad satellittjĂ€nst, DVD och video-spelare, en stereo / CD / bandspelare, och mini biljardbord och en stor boksamling av Nova Scotian kultur. Vi tillhandahĂ„ller sĂ€ngklĂ€der och handdukar, andra förnödenheter sĂ„som toalettpapper, och en tvĂ€ttmaskin / torktumlare. Ja, vi har trĂ„dlöst internet, och cell tjĂ€nsten Ă€r bra. Vi tillĂ„ter inte rökning av nĂ„got slag inne i vĂ„rt hem.

OmrÄdet

Lokalt finns det mÄnga attraktioner. Ett halvt dussin strÀnder finns inom en 10-minuters bilresa, inklusive Risser Beach Provincial Park, med en fin sandstrand med badvakter, slingrande strandpromenaden lÀngs en back kÀrr, besökscentret, en snackbar och dusch anlÀggning. PÄ vÄr ö finns mÄnga pittoreska stigar och vÀgar att gÄ eller cykla, ett marint museum, samlingslokal, regeringen Wharf, en kyrka och en kyrkogÄrd. PÄ nÀrliggande Crescent Beach, folk Àlskar att parkera sina bilar pÄ stranden, rastar sina hundar, surf, kite-board, promenera pÄ stranden vid soluppgÄng och solnedgÄng, och naturligtvis, simma!

Flera fiskare och deras familjer lever fortfarande pÄ öarna, nÄgra som kommer att ta besökare ut och fiska eller pÄ islands turer (frÄga oss). Lokalbefolkningen Àlskar ocksÄ att dela sin samfundets historia genom tillfÀlliga möten lÀngs vÀgen och vid evenemang som mÄndag morgon kaffe timme, som betjÀnar de bÀsta hemgjorda scones och klibbiga Bullar du nÄgonsin smakat - verkligen. SamhÀllet hallen Àr ocksÄ vÀrd gÀstförelÀsningar och andra evenemang.

LÀngs fyren rutt pÄ fastlandet finns massor av hantverk och antikaffÀrer, ateljéer konstnÀr, restauranger, museer och historiska platser (som Fort Point Museum i LaHave, dÀr fransmÀnnen först landade i Kanada Är 1604). Du kan ta i musikevenemang, landsting mÀssor, torghandel, konstutstÀllningar, oxe drar, filmer, teater och mycket mer. För sportaktiviteter, kan du hyra kajaker, golf pÄ flera kurser, rida, rock klÀttra, vindsurfing, para-segel, och njuta av resort pÄ White Point Beach, dÀr du kan fÄ ett dagskort för att anvÀnda poolerna, gÄrd spel och bÄtar.

Missa inte den mest berömda bageriet i Nova Scotia, den LaHave Bageri (15 minuter), dÀr man kan sitta ner i dess pittoreska matsal och njuta av en fantastisk frukost eller lunch. En annan gÀst favorit Àr "The Ugnar," som Àr en serie av havets grottor nÄs med trÀdbevuxna gÄngbanor, dÀr vÄgorna pund in och ut. PÄ Ross Farm, kommer barnen Àlskar att se en "arbetar" gÄrd dÀr de fortfarande föda upp djur och odla grödor. Och baka försÀljning och hummer kvÀllsmÄl i samlingslokaler över hela omrÄdet Àr utsökt!

Magical Island Stay

This home is located on a very private island just a short drive from the LaHavre area. Very accessible drive to grocery, craft stores, bakery, and other conveniences. So many beaches and places to hike within short drive. The island is very walkable with many interesting and historical things to discover. The home is decorated with very quaint items that fit the location. The view from the decks attached to the home are just stunning! The view changes every hour with the weather. So fun to watch the wildlife and the fisherman out in their boats. The sky at night is filled with so many stars. Kitchen is well equipped for any real cook and handy to have washer/dryer on site. So quiet and peaceful, we didn't want to leave. Thank you to Mont and family for sharing your family treasure with us!

This was our first night's stay in NS on our travels. If you want the feel of an original Nova Scotia home (dated 1906) with some antique furnishings, this place is for you. I agree with another reviewer that we were a bit nervous to touch anything after reading all of the instructions. We understand that there was an issue with a guest in the past, but we are conscientious adult travelers. I would not rent my home to others if I were concerned. Mont is nice and very communicative. After staying at other places during our travels, he is the only host who asked us to communicate via a phone call at booking and upon entering the home. Something to note: the advertisement says "Car-accessible," but you will not be able to drive down to the house to unload/load your luggage; there is parking at the top of the property and a wheelbarrow to use if necessary. The property is secluded and quiet in a cove with a few security cameras on-site. Happy trails!

A nice spot to stay for mature travellers without children or pets

The house, yard, and location are beautiful. We enjoyed looking at the photo album, showing the progression of the house over the years, and why it is so precious to the Fennel family. We loved being so close to the water; the location was secluded, serene, and perfect for what we were looking for. Far enough from the big town feel, but close enough to town that it's a short drive to supplies. We also loved that we could explore the South Shore and still be close to home base. The interior is beautifully decorated, with furniture you can spot throughout their family history in the album. Our only worry, was that even with well behaved kids and pets, we were a little on edge, making sure the furniture and countertops stayed spotless. We felt intimidated by the big book of instructions, and felt it could have been condensed to eliminate some of the on-edge feeling, however, there were some bits of information included that we appreciated having. Overall, we loved our stay at the Fennel House and would absolutely recommend this spot to mature friends and family, with no kids or pets. A user-friendly kitchen, and a thoughtfully condensed, up to date, house info binder would have made this spot a 5 star stay.

Our original booking was cancelled due to covid travel restrictions which left us out all of our money due to the refund policy but then Mont went out of his way to find another weekend that worked for both of us so we wouldn't lose anything.

Great views, charming home. overwhelming instructions

Cant beat the location or views. House was a nicely updated older home, photos are accurate as far as the home goes. The property description is not entirely accurate. The dock was damaged last year and is not in place, there is no deck on the rocks and the gazebo is not there. The grounds were in ok shape but half of the lawn was off limits as a new septic system is being installed. The beds were mostly comfortable, there were blinds in some of the windows but not all and fans available and a nice breeze most of the time. The living room furniture needs an update. The loveseat cushion has a huge rip in it and the rattan chairs were not very comfy. The house was clean but there was a good number of spiders and cobwebs in the main living room. Kitchen was nicely appointed with everything we needed but was a bit tight for more than one person to cook in. The grill is charcoal and there is a small portable gas grill available. (BYO propane and charcoal) The toilet is a composting system that required 2 pages of instructions on how to operate, it did require a couple trips to the basement to reset. Overall the house and location would have made for a very serene experience however there was an added level of stress given to us AFTER booking (and paying). You will receive an email from Mont with 11 attachments (50 or so pages) and instructions for everyone in the party to read them all and let him know this was done, as well as print them all and bring them with you. Some of these were helpful (they have been described in other reviews) most were EXTENSIVE and overwhelming. The rules, requests, procedures and policies were exhausting. They left us walking on eggshells as Mont had warnings, disclaimers and rules for EVERYTHING related to the house. In addition to this there were several phone calls to explain things such as how to use the toilet and request to add peat moss to the sewage tank and test a ZOOM call for a future guest. It was too much . We felt like we were under intense scrutiny and were liable to lose the damage deposit for any little issue. The manifesto as I came to call it left a bad taste from day one and did not give us a carefree stay that the location should elicit. In summary, the location and view are great, the house was nice, the description is out dated and the information, procedures, policies and requests were too much.

As Advertised - A Steal for the Price

Property and location dont get much better than this. Overlooking the water with a beautiful patio. Clean home with a modern kitchen. Had some issues and property owner was available immediately to help resolve. Wish the bakery had been open in some capacity during the pandemic. Not a complaint.

Not so roughing it on Bell Island

Wonderful place to stay - mix of gentrified and updated charm. We loved out little house perched on the edge of the shore. We had a variety of visitors including red fox, crows, gulls, deer and an adorable porcupine. House is chilly in late May but the wood stoves do an admirable job of making the rooms cozy. Space heaters in bedrooms help regulate sleeping temperature nicely. Lots to do or see. You can also engage in some down time with reading, contemplation of the tides and enjoyment of the quiet mystery of the wind in the trees.

Two of my colleagues and I held an offsite at Fennel Old House in May. We hit great weather and the place was amazing. The house was impeccably clean and organized - as were Mont's extremely clear instructions that covered any questions you might have. The views are beautiful from most every window and the place has that great old, seaside homestead feel. My colleagues had to head out to pick up some supplies and they were pleasantly surprised to find a well-stocked store very near by. Mont contacted me to ensure everything was OK upon our arrival and picked up the moment I called him with a question or two. If you're looking for a well-managed, beautiful, quiet place in a unique, seaside location - I highly recommend Fennel Old House.

Beautiful, very private, loved the quiet, peaceful feel of the place

My sisters and I loved the spot, the pages of instructions were a little intimidating, but once you got there the beauty of the home and area made you completely relaxed, the check in time of 4 pm we found a little late but there was some leeway with that if you let Mont know ahead of time, also the checkout of 10 am a little early. Our only complaint with the decor was that there were no cozy chairs or a couch to snuggle in, other than that we loved the quaint, homey feel of the place and the compost toilet was not an issue, which we were leery of, it worked great, Thanks again to Mont for sharing his lovely home.

Great property but some unfortunate drawbacks.

The two major positive aspects of the Fennel Old House are the view and the location. From the back deck – where we thoroughly enjoyed the ritual of our morning coffee – there is an incredible, unobstructed view of a tranquil cove in which the colours change with the tide due to the underwater vegetation. The location is at the end of the road on Bell Island, and, while you can see another home tucked further back in the cove when you walk down to the dock, the setting is exceedingly private and quiet. I enjoyed cycling from the house on Bell Island to Petite Riviere, Green Bay and over the mountain to Penz and La Havre where the local bakery must have a large magnet because my bicycle was always pulled to a stop out front! One evening, we took in a fine concert of folk music at The Old Confidence House at Riverport where a huge but gentle Newfoundland dog meandered through the audience obtaining affection. The La Have Islands Maritime Museum just down the road is a gem. There are two negative aspects, however, to the Fennel Old House. The first is that none of the four bedrooms have adequate curtains. There are no blinds. The concern is not a lack of privacy but rather an absence of protection from the early morning light. It is fine if you are an early riser and wish to be awakened at dawn; however, after 6:00 A.M. each morning, the light can be bright and annoying. The second is that after we booked the Fennel Old House, we were deluged with no less than 30 pages of detailed instructions with respect to the proper care of the house and its equipment from the beginning to the end of our stay. These instructions include: “Important Information about the House” (Over 60 do’s, don’ts and requests), “Care and Use of the Refrigerator” (2 do’s and don’ts), “Care and Use of the Dishwasher” (6 bullet points of do’s and don’ts), “Care, Use & Cleaning of the Electric Stove” (53 bullet points of do’s and don’ts), “Toilet/Composting System Instructions” (8 warnings in bold) and “Use & Care of the Soapstone Counters” (15 bullet points of do’s and don’ts). These meticulous instructions were accompanied by a total of 9 warnings that failure to follow them could result in the loss of all or some of our security deposit. The kitchen renovations this spring – especially the new Brazilian soapstone counters and state-of-the-art electric stove and dishwasher - have possibly made the owner especially apprehensive about potential damage.

Beautiful Cottage on the South Shore

I recently stayed at the Fennel house with my sister and mom for a south shore girls weekend. We loved the seclusion of the home, yet it was relatively central to many South Shore points of interest. The cottage truly has an oceanfront cottage feel, from the decor to the age of the house and antique wood stoves. The house was more spacious than anticipated and the value was well worth it. The old family photo albums showing the upgrades to the house over the years was really neat. The views are spectacular from inside the house and from the many decks /docks located on the exterior. We were there during the recent lunar eclipse and had some of the best views. The cottage is very well stocked with cooking wares and your basic spices and everyday items. Far more stocked than any other vacation property. I was a little nervous about the compost toilet, but none of us had any issues when we were there, and thought it was quite neat. We strolled to Crescent beach and saw many deer along the way. The local inhabitants of the island are very friendly and welcoming. The Lahave Bakery does not disappoint and is a must! The rental process was extremely smooth and Mont called to check in upon our arrival and departure to make sure everything was alright and that we enjoyed our stay. His response time to emails was within an hour or two. I would highly recommend this vacation rental for those looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and who are looking for a true cottage feel.

Home Away From Home

The Fennel House or I would prefer to call it the Fennel Home because that is what it is, a home. I was looking for a place to bring my family where I could relax and enjoy them and reflect a bit and I found it in this home. This well maintained home is charming, inviting, with personnel touches throughout which reflect the Fennel family. It has everything you need right done to books to read and board games to play. The house itself gives you a feel of maritime past and the view and area is picture perfect. I would suggest if you have access to a kayak it would be well worth bringing it along, the bay was very quiet when we were there and we saw a number of kayakers. If you don't have access to one you can rent one in the area although it is a little costly. If you feel the need to wander this is the area to do it, there are many little hidden gems to discover wineries, beaches, ,marinas, as well as shopping, are all within 30 minutes. We visited several different areas Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, Crescent Beach, Halifax and more I only wish we had more time. If you don't know what to do or where to go Mont has an information binder that has a number of suggestions and he is only a phone call or email away if you should need help. He's very prompt in calling you back. As you can tell I was very taken with the home and area and wouldn't hesitate to go back. Thank you Fennel family for providing a lovely get away for my family.

The Fennel Old House is owned by Mont and Mitzi Fennel, who have been coming to the islands every summer of their lives.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

In 1956, our father stumbled upon the Fennel Old House on a boat tour of the islands, while visiting a friend. He bought it from a fishing family. Back then, it came with a large wharf, smokehouse, outhouse, one electric outlet and no running water! Over the years Dad fixed it up to become a wonderful second home for us. 10 years ago, my sister and I took over the property and fully renovated it. We have furnished it nicely, and have beautifully landscaped the large yard. The house, community, and area have become a fundamental part of our lives.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

1) Beauty -- Unparalleled views of the ocean
 Awesome picture-taking, both on our property and of the surrounding islands. Photograph or paint vistas, fishing boats, wharves, and colorful houses.

2) Romance -- Total privacy and relaxation. Enjoy the ambiance of 2 wood stoves, lounging on multiple decks, dinners in the gazebo or screen porch, walks on island paths, and more.

3) Children – We are a kid's paradise, with a large yard to play badminton, croquet, football, frisbee, wiffle ball, darts, and use our outdoor swing. Youngsters love to play and swim off our dock, climb around our waterfront, and explore the adjacent woods. We have books, board games, and some toys for tots. Also a mini-pool table and TV/VCR with a video library.

4) Adventure – Dozens of things to do on the popular South Shore mainland area (within 5 to 40 minutes), and quick access to beaches (5 to10 minutes). We provide guests with a guide with directions.

5) Community -- An unusually close group of families, both fishermen and summer residents, who live nearby and welcome visitors.

6) Boating – Our floating dock, attached to land-based ramp, is large enough for a low-drafting, 18-foot boat, or a couple of kayaks. Explore our cove and other island inlets or venture further around all of the LaHave Islands. Kayaks can be rented 10 minutes away.

7) Pets – We gladly accept them and have a huge yard for dogs to play in.
