Pelham House Bed & Breakfast

$$ | 224 Pelham St., Lunenburg, NS, B0J 2C0, Canada

Close to downtown, with a veranda overlooking Lunenburg Harbour, this circa-1906 sea captain's home is decorated in homey, country style. The large, airy rooms, all with original wood floors, are outfitted with pine furniture and lots of wicker and quilts, and one room has its own deck. There's a cozy sitting room, full of antiques and original art, with books, games, and the daily newspaper. Breakfast is served at separate tables in the sunny dining room, or out on the deck on warm mornings.

Pros

  • Great breakfasts included with rates
  • Owners fluent in English, French, and Spanish
  • Suite works well for families

Cons

  • No grounds to speak of
  • Resident dog not great for people with pet allergies
  • Ceiling fans rather than air-conditioning
