Minutes away from some of Cape Breton’s best:
The scenic Cabot Trail
One of the most breathtaking drives in the world, the Cabot Trail winds through rugged coastline, lush highlands, and charming fishing villages. Whether you’re snapping photos at every turn or simply soaking in the views, it’s an unforgettable journey just minutes from our doors.
The famous Dancing Goat Café & Bakery
A beloved local gem, The Dancing Goat is known for fresh-baked treats, hearty sandwiches, and coffee worth lingering over. It’s the kind of place where you walk in for “just a quick bite” and end up staying for the atmosphere.
Cape Breton BackCountry Adventures
Get your heart racing and your boots (or tires) a little dirty. From guided off-road tours to hidden trails, this is your ticket to exploring Cape Breton’s wild side — the kind you just can’t reach from the pavement.
World-class golf at Cabot Links
World-class golf with ocean views so stunning they might just ruin your concentration. Cabot Links is a bucket-list course for golfers, and it’s close enough for a spontaneous tee time.
Hiking, fishing, and hunting opportunities all around
Live traditional music at The Barn at The Normaway Inn
From the legendary salmon runs of the Margaree River to game-filled forests, the valley offers some of the best fishing and hunting in the province. Bring your gear, your patience, and your stories to tell by the BBQ later.
