“A unique place, an experience worth the trip.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 July 2009

Let me start by saying , it is beautiful old house and makes no pretensions to be a quaint modern B&B. Instead you have owners Jean and Paul who adopt you as part of their family. Staying here and talking to them you get a history lesson on the last 40 years on the Island.

Dinner is not to be missed. Paul, handsome in his kilt, is responsible for serving and more experience sharing The first course salad is straight out of his garden. It is fresh and unique. The effort that goes into this salad is unbelievable. Now comes the main course, Jean cooks terrific dishes using great technique and vegetables, again home grown that you could only dream of. Dessert is great too.

This is not a four star hotel and it makes no such pretensions. But if you want to have the time of your life and be greeted like long lost friends, this is a don't miss.

Re Price, the meals are one price and Paul could not be more generous with the food and wine. I was embarrassed the next morning when I saw the check and realized how much I ate and drank.

This kind of place is why one goes to PEI; to relive a world long lost in the more populated areas.

Stayed July 2009, travelled as a couple

“Always liked it”

Sorry to hear that the other reviewer disliked this place. I visited it twice, 1996 and 2004 and both times I was overwhelmed by Paul's hospitality and his ability to make the guest feel like coming home to your own home.

We stayed there two times for the four - course dinner menu. When we made the reservation in advance we chose a meat, fish or a vegetarian menu. When we arrived we were welcomed in the cosy fireplace room for an aperitif and crackers. After a short while we moved to the dining room close to the cute and authentic kitchen and always found an imaginative decoration with fresh garden flowers and candles. The food was delicious and crisp. Paul provided matching classical music from his collection of records.

I don't remember if I have met his wife Jean but I can't remember any discomfort when I stayed also in their B&B in spring 2004. Me and my partner liked this place and I would be happy to read nowadays reviews soon.

“A strange place”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 April 2005

I couldn't wait to write a review of this place...
We read all kinds of recommendations for this inn, and there were some nice features, like the gardens - they have an extensive, impressive vegetable garden that really is incredible. The inn itself was not one of the nice features.
First of all, the bed... we chose the less expensive room with a double bed, not because we're cheap, but because we didn't need the queen-size bed offered. The room was very small, and that's OK, and the bathroom was down the hall, and that's OK, but the bed... it was just awful, saggy and uncomfortable! After the first night of sleeping on it, my husband's back went out, so the next night we brought our camping pads in and put them over the mattress. And this was supposed to be the Doctor's Inn!? A stay here almost guarantees a trip to the chiropractor!
Then, there's the owner's of the inn.... they squabbled with each other, there were obvious jabs directed at each other. They were nice enough, but had an acrimonious relationship that made us feel uncomfortable. The lady of the house was obviously overworked with the garden and inn and all, and she complained to me that she hadn't been on a vacation for years, making me feel guilty for being on vacation and not being at home working like she was. They seemed to be struggling financially, that could explain the inadequate mattress.
The breakfast was nothing to write home about, but was sufficient. Meals were cooked on a wood burning cookstove with produce from the farm. For breakfast, everyone got the same thing: eggs and toast. We didn't eat dinner there, so I can't comment on their dinners.
