Overall the location is excellent, the view outstanding, clean and neat. Its a heritage building and that comes with older features, which is to be expected. Parking in Lunenburg is a challenge.

I booked only room available and it was huge with 2x queen beds, table, sofa, chair & to & full kitchen! Quite a few stairs to climb! It had fantastic views over harbour & beyond! Welcome was not great as busy in restaurant so standing around a bit! I was woken a few times with snoring coming through the wall from adjoining room! Quite disappointing & perhaps having one of the beds on another wall might help? If I could have moved the bed, I would have!!! Also NO PARKING but was lucky to park nearby on arrival!

Inn is old which has a potentially charming aspect about it. Mattress was old and very uncomfortable. Room itself was clean and good bathroom. View of Lunenburg harbour spectacular and easy to enjoy the village and shops. Parking was good We did not eat there.
