Blomidon Inn

This rambling 1800s sea captain’s mansion, now a 31-unit inn, is perhaps Wolfville’s finest lodging. The rooms come with eye-candy period furnishings like ornate fireplaces, Victorian loveseats, antique carpets, four-poster beds or ones with elaborately carved headboards. The most romantic feature jacuzzi tubs or fireplaces. The ambience of an English manor house is enhanced by the extensive Victorian style gardens. The inn’s onsite restaurant is superb, and employs foraged delicacies, local vegetables, and Nova Scotia seafood in its offerings. A cold continental breakfast is included in the room rate. One warning: It’s a steep climb to third-floor bedrooms, so ask to be switched if you have mobility issues.
