The Braeside commands a terrific view location on the edge of Pictou, facing south to New Glasgow. Unfortunately, the wind was blowing from that direction, so pulp mill smells wafted over us, meaning we could not open the windows, and the a/c just cooled the unpleasant fragrance.

We needed a place to stay for the night, having arrived via a late ferry from PEI. Booked late online, and had to ring the doorbell for the innkeeper Mike to let us in... very friendly and well kept place. It was bigger than we expected. He upgraded us to a larger room which was nice. The price was very... More

The Braeside Inn is a unique night's stay! Anne and Mike, our hosts, were incredibly kind, friendly and helpful towards us during our stay. Our room was very clean, spacious and comfortable.
