Fundy Retreat

Private 'half' of a very old farmhouse overlooking the Bay of Fundy. Ideal as a quiet getaway surrounded by natural beauty. (Host lives in the other half.) This is a rural location with no street lights or urban infrastructure. Instead there are eagles, high tides, dark skies at night and quiet only broken by birds at dawn. All new interiors, well designed and keeping the character of the house. Important to know - the 2 bedrooms are adjoined.
