Sandy and Cathy have embarked on a labor of love, the Scotsman is thoughtfully and lovingly decorated with antiques, fine china, and local artist's works. A good night's sleep in the super comfortable bed makes up for the meager breakfast.

Small family run business. Well maintained drive up motel units with a focus on cleanliness and value for the dollar.Several housekeeping cottages also on the property dating back to the 50's, most of which have been modernized and renovated.
Stayed one night in Cottage #21. Not impressed as grass was not cut around the cottage and dishes in dish strainer. Heading to PEI ferry and could not even tell us what road to take. Beds were clean and comfortable, bathroom was clean and we had lots of towels Had to ask for an extra chair as there was 3 of us and only 2 chairs. They were very obliging by bringing us another chair. Just did not feel comfortable. Maybe put in older cottage because we had a little pet. Owners were very friendly. The heat pump remote was screwed to the wall and the AC was on when we went in and it was very cold. No way to turn heat on.

Welcome to the Customs House Inn overlooking the historic and picturesque Pictou waterfront. During your stay soak in views of Pictou Harbour and enjoy exploring this walkable town. Stop into Uncle Leo’s Brewery, explore the history of the Hector Quay replica ship or relax on one of the many nearby warm water beaches. In the evening back at the inn, feel like you are stepping back in time with original features perfectly maintained in this cira 1870 house. Made of brick and sandstone the home boasts large windows and rooms, original wide plank hardwood floors, high ceilings and intricate crown moldings mixed with modern amenities. The property was purchased in 1995 by David and Douglas DesBarres. In 1997 they extensively renovated the building to repurpose the property into a four star inn. The inn offers 8 spacious air conditioned rooms (king or queen bed) with 4 piece bath, CBTV, phone, wifi and fridge. Three of these rooms also include kitchenettes. Parking is free and on site. The property is easy walking distance to shops, restaurants and a beautiful walking trail alongside the harbour. Business services are available including meeting and conference space. History of the Pictou Customs House The Pictou Customs House was built for the federal government circa 1873 according to designs by Halifax architects Stirling and Dewar. The building was built to house the offices of the Customs and Immigration branch of the federal government. The building is located on what was originally a spit of land in close proximity to the major wharves. The Second Empire structure features a double façade looking out to the harbour and in to the town. The building also had a tower overlooking the waterfront. The massive building was a forceful statement made by the federal government of a young country, an indelible imprint on the town’s streetscape. The customs house just happened to be properly aligned with the Pictou Bar Lighthouse. The Department of Marine received permission to exhibit navigational lights from its tower. The department’s report for 1878 provides the following information on the customs house: “A range light has been placed during last summer in the tower of the new Custom House, just above the railway station, in the Town of Pictou. It is a fixed white. The light is shewn by means of three argand gas-burners, each having 25 jets – two furnished with 15-inch reflectors, shews seaward, and one with a 12-inch reflector, shews across the harbor to southward. The light is under charge of the keeper of the Custom House building.” In September 1954 Hurricane Edna caused extensive damage in Nova Scotia, its high winds destroyed the tower atop the customs house. A light was still exhibited from the customs house after the loss of the tower until at least 1959.
Made a booking for December 27th, 2021. On the 19th, out of the blue, I received a written message from the Inn that the reservation was cancelled. Strange and unexpected to cancel a booking a week before a major holiday. Today I received a message that the booking still existed and that I would be charged. The Inn had not cancelled the booking. Bizarre. I have not had a similar experience anywhere else in the world.

90 Front Street Pictou, NS B0K 1H0
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Heritage Quay B&B this winter! Prity and Barry (and little Spike!) were fabulous hosts and made us feel very comfortable and welcome in their beautiful space. Our room had everything we could possibly want, including a super comfy and cozy bed! Breakfast was fabulous. We were really grateful that they were easily able to accommodate my husband's gluten free diet and we loved the scrumptious homemade granola! We'd love to return in summer someday and spend more time exploring the beautiful Pictou area. And try their Indian takeout meals too! Thanks again for an absolute treat of a weekend, Heritage Quay!!

Worst slumlord EVER! Do not rent in the winter, you will have no heat. Repeatedly ran out of oil. (Inside 56 degrees one cold day!) Oil tank in the basement leaked. Huge environmental issues. Basement leaked every rain. Sketchy wifi. Owner is an ex RCMP who clearly does NOT care about his tenants. Seems he would prefer to run the buildings into the ground rather than concentrate on improving his units and protecting his investment and his tenants. It's unfortunate that I didn't know his failure to comply with the Landlord Tenant Act before I paid. (Heat is mandatory, not an upgrade!) Rent at your own risk! Shout out to Shelby and John who tried very hard to keep me warm and safe. Including installing a lock on the front door of the unit and manually putting oil in the tank via a Jerrican. They also tried to increase the wifi signal. (More than 2 units rented decreased the signal.) My service rating is directly related to Shelby and John, not the owner. Building was 134 Water St. -- Glad to have moved out!!
