Cranberry Cove Inn

Top choice in Cape Breton Island


From the dark-pink facade to the period-perfect interior of mauve, dusty blue and antique lace, you'll be transported back in time through rose-colored glasses at this stunning B&B. Each room is different, and several have Jacuzzis and fireplaces.
