This place is a little Cole Harbour treasure. Beautiful gardens, barn animals, local heritage home and museum along with the most gentile tea room serving Nova Scotia Select status gastronomy. Also has a Wednesday afternoon pop up market.

Unfortunately couldn't see inside the barns due to Covid. But certainly had a wonderful time looking at the well kept garden with beautiful flowers and plants.

Love looking at things from the past

Steven Zinck

Great spot, kids love this place

Entry by donation, an easy outing for a family group of all sizes and ages. Poultry, sheep and a few calves were around, lots of placards with local history on display. The garden is pretty and grows food.

Trish Fevens

In my opinion the menu for the cream tea is too expensive. Are the scones made with real butter? One scone with jam and cream served with tea should be no more than $5.00, not $8.00's. The high price is keeping me away.

My family and I love going to the farm. It’s a little gem. The food in the tea room is always fresh and delicious. The Atmosphere is quaint, it’s perfect. The garden is beautiful and some of the best pictures I’ve taken are at the farm. Staff is always friendly as well!!

Mia Voss

What an amazing hidden gem. You literally feel like you are transported back in time when you step foot onto the property. Complete with a working farm and the original barns - yet get an idea of how farm life operated. All the original buildings are intact and each building has small exhibits. There is also a great little restaurant & tea house with a small gift shop.

Annie Jenkins

A little farm in the middle of Cole harbour. It was fun for the kids to see the animals. There were chickens, a pig and piglets, cows, and sheep. They also had some displays of old farm equipment and tools

Fun place to take the grandkids on a weekday morning.Lots of interpretive displays. Not too crowded when we went. Animals are fun to see for kids of all ages from one to a hundred or so. The potty toss game was a huge hit.

bella cruise

They was amazing. We had a group visit . The walk to lake is nice . Flowers everywhere . Learn something new today . Read the info in pic .

Ellen MacIsaac

Attended their GM certainly ate a all organised group of dedicated people. Very welcoming and informative.

Reid Palmer

Small, charming and locally run, mostly by volunteers. Real animals and a forge that operates occasionally (by volunteer blacksmiths) create a good atmosphere that's enjoyable to spend time in. There is a teahouse that i believe sells drinks and snacks but I've not actually tried it myself as we've always been here for other events like small fiber arts festivals.

John Russell

Unique look back in time

Miranda Romkey

Great piece of rural farm life in the middle of an urban environment. Highly recommended!

Shannon O'Connell

Cool little spot hidden in the middle of a city. An inexpensive place to taje ghe family for a few hours without having to go too far. Great to walk through as a couple or with small kids. Older kids (10 and up) will likely be unimpressed. We took a 3 and a 5 year old and they loved seeing the animals and walking through the gardens. As adults we really liked going through the historic buildings. Since this place is a low key hidden spot, you can really take your time. There is a little restaurant and some local jams, etc for sale too. Bathroom on site near the restaurant.

Michael Fong

Good little visit with the young ones.

Sophia McPherson

It's amazing place for a day trip with my kids. Thank you very much.
