Circa 1837. DesBarres Manor Inn exudes pure luxury wrapped in casual elegance on six landscaped acres in the seaside village of Guysborough on Chedabucto Bay. Relax on the spacious Grand Deck and Gazebo before a refreshing swim in the outdoor pool at nearby Osprey Shores Golf Resort. Gather before dinner in the Parlour Room for a complimentary Taste of Nova Scotia with appetizers and drinks. Antiques, original art, rare vintage maps and striking photography accent the B&B. Guest bedrooms are comfortable and inviting retreats, named after a local geographic feature or historic person. In the fireside dining room seasonal menus and contemporary Canadian cuisine inspired by an East Coast flair are accented with fresh produce and herbs from the chef's garden. Ask about specials and packages available.
