Whether you wish to visit the
historic reconstruction of Fortress Louisbourg with the many attractions and
historic venues or the history walk in Sydney with St.Patrick's Church,
Cossitt House and DeBarres statute or a walk along the BOARDWALK we can drive
you to any destination you wish.
The
historic village of Baddeck which hugs the rambling Bras d'Or Lakes is an
ideal vacation spot to visit from THE MIRA COTTAGES. Enjoy Cape Breton- its
culture, diverse history and scenic, pastoral vistas which are swept by the
sea and nurtured by the welcoming sun. Baddeck was the summer home of one of
Cape Breton's most vibrant and talented men- Alexander Graham Bell. His genius
and inventive spirit has transcended his time and catapulted science into
uncharted venues. Indeed, the Bell Museum in Baddeck welcomes thousands of
visitors each year who come to view and pay homage to one of the century's
greatest minds.
Another attraction that has
thousands of visitors' raving each year is the famed scenery of the Cabot
Trail in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park, with its gateway being the
village of Baddeck. The Park offers 27 hiking trails, camping, golfing, the
fluke of the whales and majestic sweep of the eagles, sightings of moose, deer,
bear and bird life enthralls visitors.
Also, sailing tours leave
every few hours from government wharf in Baddeck and ply the Bras d'Or Lakes.
The smell of the brine and surge of the water as the bow cuts into the placid
water can appeal to any landlubber. To view the majestic mountains from the
water is indeed a treat, intermingled with the screech of the gulls and swoop
of the eagles.
Enjoy farm life as experienced
by the early Scottish settlers at the Nova Scotia Highland Village Museum and
while at Marble Mountain Museum you can touch the lifestyle of the late 1800's
from the point of view of miners who worked in the marble quarry. The
Orangedale Railway Station Museum offers a special look at the late 19th
century trains and train travel. The Rankin Family have made this location
famous with the popular song, The Orangedale Whistle.
If golfing is your game, then you
must tee-off at the Bell Bay Golf Club, designed by internationally acclaimed
golf architect Thomas McBroom. Bell Bay's 18 holes offer the Bay's exceptional
golf experience. It has quickly become one of Cape Breton's fabulous foursome
that overlooks the Lakes. Experience the driving sensation on a sunny day for
an experience you'll never forget. Another golf course you may enjoy is Dundee
in Richmond County or Lingan in Sydney or the beautiful Seaview Golf course in
North Sydney.
Whatever your inclination may
be: to sit and relax on the beach, spend a day of antique hunting, drive to
the casino in Sydney, enjoy sailing the Bras d'Or Lakes, the Mira, saunter
about the river bank or cast your rod for fabulous trout or tours the Cabot
Trail - we bid you welcome. Enjoy our attractions and relax amid our gentile
surroundings before embarking on another adventure in the Highlands.
