Great check-in experience

Recent guests loved the smooth start to this stay.
Welcome to Eigg Mountain Escape, a nature lovers’ getaway in Antigonish County overlooking the Northumberland Strait and surrounded by a low mountain range. If you are craving a peaceful getaway with incredible views in a rural setting, we would love to host you! Beautiful beaches, hiking and riding trails and amazing scenery await! Your hosts live in a separate dwelling on the 53 acre estate. The rental suite is on the second floor of our guest house with its own entry and tons of parking.

The space
Welcome! The accommodations are new (2023) and thoughtfully appointed for maximum guest comfort. *New! We have added laundry facilities downstairs in the garage for your convenience. Each of the 3 bedrooms is located in a separate corner of the building for your privacy. Stretch out in the comfy king sized beds, and singles or kids can enjoy a restful night's sleep in the 2nd bedroom with 3 twin beds (we can convert 2 of the twin beds into a king upon request). A fully stocked kitchen with a beautiful breakfast bar is open to the living and dining areas so you can relax and gather to plan your excursions. While dinner cooks, start heating the wood fired hot tub facing the sea, it’s so easy and chemical free - and doubles as a cool plunge tub on hot summer days (may be unavailable during winter bookings) The breathtaking views and nearby beaches and scenic drives are the icing on the cake! Coffee, tea, salt, pepper, sugar and a variety of spices are always stocked. No traffic, no noise, no stress! Lobster lovers: during lobster season, we would be delighted to deliver professionally cooked, famous Lismore lobster right to your door! Market price varies 🦞
*we personally clean the property after each stay to an immaculate standard ✨
*when you request to book, acceptance is not automatic, we may have queries before proceeding with a
reservation. Please respond, and please add the air bnb app to your mobile device as that is how we communicate with one another during your stay.

Guest access
*Please provide us with your expected arrival time to ensure an efficient check in. The entire top level of the building is the guest suite. A private entrance, hallway and stairs lead you to the space. A digital door code is provided to each guest at the time of check-in. Our location is extremely safe and private, a true escape from your usual routine!

Other things to note
The lower level of the building is unoccupied (garage) and does not form part of the rental suite. Do you need anything to make your arrival easier? We can pick up your grocery order and put it away before you arrive, for example! Contact us for details and pricing.

Neighbourhood highlights

We are in a rural location, between the fishing communities of Lismore and Arisaig. Beautiful beaches are just minutes away! We are 40 minutes east of New Glasgow, and 40 minutes west of Antigonish. We are a perfect pit stop on the way to the Cabot Trail and in fact, the “mini Cabot Trail” along hwy 337 is a wonderful local drive not far from our location.
