Would definitely return!
What a great place to stay in Port Hood! Alain and Denise were so welcoming and helpful. Alain had many, many suggestions for what to do in the area, and also gave a lovely overview of the history of Port Hood and Cape Breton each day over breakfast. Breakfast was delicious every day, too. The room was quite spacious and clean. We'd definitely return!

Local history and a home-cooked breakfast
This was a fantastic bed and breakfast run by a lovely couple. If you're looking to slow down a bit and learn some local history over a home-cooked breakfast, this is the place for you! They were very accommodating with our late arrival. The few number of rooms helps them cater to their guests. The location is great as well, minutes from great beaches, and with a view of the ocean. If you are in a rush or looking for a 5-star cookie cuter hotel room, this place isn't for you. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again soon!

We loved our stay at The Fiddle and the Sea. Our room was very comfortable and the house has a lovely elevated view from its front porch and garden. Port Hood is really charming, we were so glad that we chose to spend a night there and would happily have spent more. Our hosts love of the area and its music and cultures was apparent, and we enjoyed learning from them. Highly recommended

We stayed here at the end of our Cape Breton circuit, it would have been a great place to stay at the beginning of our visit. At breakfast,our host shared his knowledge of the island, made several fantastic recommendations and even gave us a mini fiddle performance. The breakfast was excellent...lots of delicious homemade preserves.
