The space
Our home is nestled in historic Fleming Park, offering easy access to scenic walking trails. The North-West Arm oceanfront, along with a natural playground and swimming beach, is just a 5-minute walk away.

CHECK OUT the panorama photos, 1st in each room!

After a busy day, relax on the patio, play badminton in the spacious backyard, or stroll the meditation path.

For those looking for a stair-climbing challenge May - October, the Dingle Tower (built to commemorate 150 years of representative government over 100 years ago) offers 99 steps to a memorable view of the Arm and Halifax Peninsula.

With 95 acres at your doorstep, Fleming Park (named after Sir Sandford Fleming - strong proponent of Coordinated Universal Time and one of the chief surveyors for the Intercontinental and Canadian Pacific Railways) is perfect for a bike ride, jog, or leisurely stroll around the Frog Pond where you can watch the ducks or along the seawall where you can hear an occasional loon or spy an osprey or cormorant fishing in the Arm.

Other things to note
Welcome to our serene retreat with a beautiful wooded backyard where you might spot deer and enjoy the playful antics of squirrels in the park and front yard trees. In the fall, you can even take home a chestnut or two to plant as a lovely memory of your stay.

For families with children, we have toys available in the back stairwell, stored in crates or on the wall. If a ball needs more air, feel free to use the bed pump. Children's chairs and a water play table are tucked under the forsythia, and additional garden chairs can be found under the deck.

To create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, plug in the lights by the back door when returning late.

Please note that while local parks are designated 'dog on leash' areas, not everyone adheres to this rule.

We hope you enjoy your stay and make the most of our ample outdoor space!
