DesBarres Manor Inn ( Guysborough )
Described by travel writer Linda Aksomitis as the "crowning jewel of a fabulous trip" to Nova Scotia, DesBarres Manor Inn blends the elegance of the past with modern luxury. Located in the charming seaside village of Guysborough on scenic Marine Drive, the Manor provides exceptional accommodations and dining. Our 1837 manor home has been meticulously restored to its original grandeur with elegant common spaces, beautiful rooms, grand deck, original art, fine antiques and warm, attentive service. Relax by the fire with a glass of wine or enjoy our six acres of landscaped grounds from our grand deck and gazebo.
The Inn's spectacular open kitchen features contemporary Canadian cuisine with an East Coast flair using ingredients from the Manor gardens and local suppliers. Features writer Bill Spurr described his meal at the Manor as one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten. The dining experience is complemented by the Proprietor's extensive wine collection.
DesBarres Manor Inn is a leisurely 4 hour drive from Halifax following the Nova Scotia's scenic Marine Drive. Driving from the Halifax Airport enroute to Cape Breton, DesBarres Manor is only 25 minutes off the Trans Canada Highway (Hwy 104).
