Beachfront holiday rentals in Herring Cove

Our stay at Terence Bay was incredible. The location is stunning—right on the beach with beautiful views of a lighthouse. My kids loved being able to climb on the rocks, go hiking along the seashore and even find sea glass right in the backyard! We couldn’t have asked for more and my family didn’t want our time to end! The property was spotless and even better than the pictures. Our two kids especially loved the bunk bed room. Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean was pure bliss. Danielle, our host, was fantastic—always helpful and attentive. You could tell that she genuinely cared about us having a great trip. She offered us tips and help when needed. We’ll definitely be recommending this spot to our friends and family.

The home was cozy and beautiful. The host was very accommodating and let us do an early check-in and late check-out. The view from the dining room was spectacular. This home is uniquely placed for the best view of this waterfront. There are little signs in the home of things to do in the neighbourhood, places to eat at, and clear instructions on how to look after the home. The home is tastefully decorated and has nice artwork everywhere. I particularly liked the black and white florals in the living room, the lighthouse painted on wood and the Maud Lewis print.

This was a perfect getaway home. Very comfortable and relaxing. A great view of the ocean. The front windows let in so much of the morning light ; I absolutely loved hanging out in front of the window in a big comfy chair or sitting on the front porch drinking coffee in the mornings and wine in the evenings. One does have to drive to get anywhere but the drives are relaxing and the scenery is beautiful. Grocery stores only a few miles away. A great beach also a few miles away. We weren’t able to experience any local restaurants unless there was outdoor seating as we had our dog, a Great Dane, with us. But that was completely okay with us as we just really wanted to get away from the craziness of the world for a week! The host was very responsive when we had questions and very friendly. Highly recommend this little charm!

This was the most amazing place. We spent a week here and Everything you needed or wanted was right in this place. The surroundings were peaceful, very inviting. Gillian checked in with us halfway through our stay to see if we needed anything. The beds were very comfy. The firepit is beautiful there was a fully stacked wood pile to use for the fire. There were lots of chairs all around to sit outside or out by the the dock. We would stay again in a heartbeat. Thank you Gillian and Scott for your hospitality.

Our group of four had a fantastic experience staying at Quinpool. From the moment we booked, the host was incredibly proactive and kind, making sure every detail was taken care of in advance. Communication was clear and timely, which made our entire trip smooth and completely stress-free. The property itself was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described—ideal for a relaxing stay. We truly appreciated the thoughtful touches and the warm hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a seamless and welcoming Airbnb experience!

We had our daughter and her family with us and we all enjoyed the cottage. The view is spectacular, the home is comfortable and our grandsons loved beach combing on the private beach every day! I highly recommend this place for families or even a group of friends.

Beautiful private property hidden away from the road, with the lake in the backyard. Casondra was super responsive and easy to communicate with. The interior was clean and there are instructions for pretty much anything you’d need inside the home. So cozy at night and the hot tub was so nice! They even let us use their kayaks, what a treat. We loved our two night stay, would definitely recommend!

Erin and Mitch were great hosts. The place was easy to find, neat, and felt like home away from home. Every amenity was as described and the brochure they created gave us all the information we needed in case we had further questions. We loved Halifax and would definitely stay at their place again when we do visit. Thanks again Erin and Mitch!

Great newer, clean and spacious place with a serene and private waterfront. Great location just off the highway and 20 mins to downtown.

We had a lovely stay at Melanie's cottage. The cottage was very spacious, clean and had absolutely everything that we needed. (bottle of wine was a nice touch) Melanie was very responsive to our questions and responded right away. The cottage is on a busy street but is relatively quiet when you are on the beautiful front deck. We would recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to explore the area.

Raquel’s place, “Vista Del Mar,” is absolutely gorgeous!! The open concept of the main level allows for guests to dine and intermingle while enjoying the picturesque view of St. Margaret’s Bay. Raquel was quick to respond to messages and was a pleasure to talk to! A short scenic drive to Peggy’s Cove and Halifax. Would definitely recommend this spot to anyone travelling to Nova Scotia. Thank you Raquel for having our group at your place!

This place is exactly what you need to relax and enjoy the beauty of the coastline! The smart home aspect creates a beautiful ambiance and comfort. You can not beat the view! Kevin has it all set up perfect! Wish we could've stayed longer and can't wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay. Immaculate, view was breathtaking very comfortable beds & furniture!! We had everything we needed for a long weekend!! The ONLY thing to note was the last 3-5 minutes of the drive to the cottage was a bit rough in spring. But would certainly not deter me from visiting again. Sonia was very responsive and friendly. Wifi connection was very good!

I can't begin to explain the scerene beauty that this place Tania's place offers. Stunningly beautiful views and a sunrise that leaves you breathless. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful, and their amazing dogs made the whole place feel like home. We will definitely be back. If I could ever recommend somewhere to be near Halifax but out of this city this hidden gem is an absolute must!!!

A beautiful place by the ocean. We loved going on morning jogs to the nearby Lunenberg waterfront and cooling off at the beach right outside the garden. The views were right out of a dream. Thomas was very friendly, accommodating, and responsive. Highly recommend!

very comfortable and very peaceful spot!! hot tub worked great, and a nice spacy house! had all utensils and dishes we needed. only thing I'd suggest is some more cups (different sizes) and maybe a couple extra plates. but it was a very small gripe, nothing to bring my rating down, still a 5 star stay, based on the private location alone. worth the price for 2 to 4 people looking to have some peaceful privacy.

Absolutely stunning place. Extremely responsive and kind host. Lots of dishes, cookware, appliances to use. Extremely comfortable beds. Three pristine bathrooms. Clean fridge. Stellar and stunning ocean views! Perfect all around

Great place, and Priyanka runs a very professional Airbnb business.

This house is extraordinary. The history, the decor, the comfort. The best stocked kitchen we have ever seen (plus an additional half kitchen). This may be minor, but they had lots of extras towels, face cloths and toilet paper. And the views - unbelievable! Alan's support as host was impeccable - as friendly and he was efficient. We will definitely return!

The house was amazing. Very remote and quiet. But only 30 minutes to busier locations with shopping, restaurants, etc. Within 10 minutes, RoseBay Bistro & Market and Dear Emma Pizza (incredible!) provide all you need otherwise. The beach is incredible. Sitting in the chairs at the edge of the beach, over the dunes, is the perfect spot for morning coffee or a happy hour cocktail! The house design is like a piece of art - the many levels and nooks make it a very unique experience. It is well furnished with all sorts of things you might want to enjoy your stay. Very thoughtful. We look forward to a return visit.

Gorgeous home in a beautiful location! My family and I loved our stay. The house was very clean, spacious, and well furnished. The view of the water from the deck (and throughout the home) is incredible. It was an added bonus that the home is stocked with fun toys for children. My toddler was in heaven! Simon and Megan are great hosts. They were very easy to communicate with, provided clear instructions, and gave great recommendations for things to do/places to visit in the area. I highly recommend this home and would love to come visit again!

We had a great time at the Point House. The house gave us panoramic views of the cove and pond. Hot tub a plus. Emma was very generous, friendly and welcoming.

This place took my breath away as soon as we pulled into the driveway. We fell asleep to the sounds of the waterfall outside. We watched from inside the cozy house as the Bay of Fundy overtook the beach below us during a downpour. We made pizza at midnight with ingredients we found at the Wolfville Farmer’s Market. It felt so peaceful and remote, but was still a 15min drive to great restaurants. There’s a Nordic spa literally a 5min drive down the road. Our hosts left instructions and recommendations for everything. We are so grateful to Melissa and Charles for sharing their home with us.

Great large house rental right on the Atlantic ocean. Came with outdoor firepit and BBQ. Had a great stay with 6 guests.
