This place was very charming. The hosts were terrific. Very colorful and informative. Upon arrival, after we settled into our room we were invited to sit on their lovely deck and sip some homemade wine while meeting other arriving guests from all parts of the world. Fun experience.

Sandy and Cathy were very nice folks. The property was nice as well as interesting. Our room was very comfortable. A nice glass of wine from the hosts enable us to visit with the other guests. The hosted continental breakfast was a nice touch.

10/10 Exceptional

Innkeepers Sandy and Cathy personally renovated this historic building in the heart of downtown Pictou over the past ten years. Their excellent choices in finish, furniture, artwork, and appointments make this a very “Continental” hotel, a traditional bed and breakfast experience. Sandy excels at recommending dining and touring experiences within a short walk or short drive. The Northumberland Shore and Central Nova Scotia have myriad historic and up to date attractions, beautiful beaches, and excellent restaurants. We’re grateful to Sandy and Cathy both for introducing us to this delightful region.

Honestly we are not Bed and Breakfast travelers, but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The owners of the inn were very helpful and knowledgeable. They gave us directions to give us a more scenic drive to our next destination (so worth it!). The breakfast experience was lovely. Everyone joined in conversation and I learned so much about Canada and its provinces. The Scot’s man who runs the inn is a wealth of knowledge and is very entertaining! I would definitely stay again and would highly recommend!

We have been to Scotland and were hoping this inn would feel like we were back in the UK. We were not disappointed. The host, the accomodations, the decor and the atmospheric spirit were true to the Scottish tradition. We were very pleased.

The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The patio was lovely for relaxing and chatting with the hosts and other guests. Breakfast was very good. The only issue was the shower was small, but that is a very minor issue.

Our stay at the Scotsman Inn was amazing! Sandy and Cathy are wonderful hosts who welcomed us as if we were family. We met all the guests in the morning at breakfast and got to know them as if they were old friends. Sandy was very knowledgeable and entertaining and gave us great travel advice for our trip to PEI. We will definitely be back when we return to Pictou.
