Hi, we're Stuart and Melinda, and we're thrilled to welcome you to Field and Fern Cottages.
Our journey began when we first visited these charming rustic cottages in Balmoral Mills, Nova Scotia. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the tranquil beauty of the babbling brook, the peaceful countryside, and the sense of escape these cozy retreats offered. We knew immediately that this was a special place worth sharing.
Since purchasing the property, we've been honored to continue the legacy of this special retreat and excited to build upon what's already been lovingly created. Our goal is to preserve the authentic, nature-focused getaway experience while thoughtfully enhancing it for future guests. Whether you're listening to the brook from your cottage, soaking in the hot tub under the stars, or exploring the stunning Nova Scotia landscape, we hope you'll fall in love with this place just as we did.
