Cottage by the Bay
If you just want to relax with some lovely scenery, this is the place for you. Located in the village of Noel, the property overlooks the waters of Minas Basin, situated at the eastern end of the Bay of Fundy, site of the highest tides in the world. Noel (pronounced ‘nole’ by locals) is located on Nova Scotia’s north shore between Truro and Windsor. Originally settled by the Acadiens, the village dates back some 300 years.
This 2 bedroom cottage is set on ¾ acres of land with views to Cobequid (pronounced kobb’ ih quid) Bay. A small sandy beach is situated some 300’ from the cottage where you can sit to watch the tide come and go, dip a toe in the water at high tide or simply take in the views.
A short distance to the north is a dyke that follows the shoreline and provides beautiful vistas and a great place for a walk along the shore. At the end of the 2.5 km walk is another sandy beach.
The cottage is equipped with fridge, stove, microwave oven and coffee machine. There is a television and high speed Wi-Fi internet as well.

The neighbourhood where our cottage is located is rural in nature and is situated very near the shores of Cobequid Bay.
There is very little development along this part of the shore of Cobequid Bay and that translates into very little traffic. During the summer months, fishers will follow the high-tides and show up to fish on the beach across from the cottage.
Check it out and contact us if you have any questions.
Thank You

Texto de apresentação da família
We have had 11 exchanges so far and plan to keep arranging more.
Shelly has 'pulled the pin' and retired but I continue to slave away.....But not for much longer. One of our grown daughters is still attending university while the other has completed her degree and is now employed. They have traveled with us to Australia, New Zealand, Bermuda and Cuba and they are keen to travel on their own now.
We live in Halifax, the capital city of Nova Scotia and our exchange property is our summer cottage in Noel which is situated 1 hour north of Halifax. During the May-August months, we may also be able to accommodate travelers in our in-law suite at hour Halifax home.
With luck, we hope to put together many home exchanges in the coming years.
Estilo de vida
We are a retired couple who like traveling. As a family, we have traveled to the United States, Bermuda, Cuba, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Now that our girls are grown we are making it our mission to do more traveling without them.
Our traveling companions now are two friends who are on a similar career trajectory. We have traveled together to Thailand Germany, Scotland and Switzerland and now we are planning to increase the frequency of our trips.
These home-exchange opportunities make traveling far more affordable and interesting as we can live with the local people and get off the typical tourist routes.
Looking forward to more exchanges.
