A thoroughly-lived life tends to two approaches to activities - the personal approach focusing on finding ways to incorporate your own interests into your daily life, with the Beach House being the perfect place for reflection, relaxation, and rejuvenation. The second approach involves taking advantage of community and arts and cultural activities - Parrsboro and its surrounding communities offer and encourage both these approaches while experiencing Maritime life at its best. + VIEW MORE - COLLAPSE | Other Town/Lake/Area: | Parrsboro (17 km) |

| Spent a perfect week with my family. The house had everything you could possibly need. The owner was very easy to contact. The views were spectacular and the surrounding area very quaint. Everyone we met was so friendly. The house easily accommodated my family of 9. The beach is incredible. We are already talking about our next trip.

| We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Beach House! The views and sounds of the waves were incredible. The beach itself was only a few steps away. The house was well stocked with everything we required. The location was very private and relaxing, yet close to local towns and tourist attractions. This vacation experience will definitely be a long lasting memory.

| If we could give this place six stars we would! The host has thought of everything to make her guests feel both comfortable and welcome. We loved the mix of all the modern conveniences as well as the use of both antique and relaxed furnishings. There are two sitting rooms--each with its own fireplace or wood stove--absolute bliss. The natural surroundings are stunning and the entire atmosphere of the place extremely peaceful. There are windows everywhere, bringing in light and views of sky, ocean and trees. We have travelled and stayed in many places throughout Nova Scotia but the Beach House on Hatfield Road and the Parrsboro area excels in every respect. For us it was the feeling of being totally away from everything and yet being so extremely comfortable. Thank you Liz. We will return as soon as our schedules permit!

| Another professional artist and myself had a fabulous week staying at the Beach House. Even though it was winter, we managed to paint out windows, or from the decks (all of which had amazing views of the Bay of Fundy or Fox River. We also managed to do a couple of paintings outside in the snow.. Everything about the Beach House was just great. There was easy access to the beach and the sound of the waves was amazing. Every evening, we lit the fire in the main room. The internet service was great. I am already planning to return this fall with my family.
Stayed: March 2022
