located in the small picturesque town of Pictou, Nova Scotia.
This Inn is a beautifully restored building that was built back in 1865. It is located right downtown in the quaint seaside {Town of Pictou}, in the …
Province of Nova Scotia, Canada.
The Scotsman Inn B&B
Pictou is a lovely seaside community located on the beautiful {Northumberland Shore} of Nova Scotia. It is also known as the; “Birthplace of New Scotland.“
It was here in Pictou, where the first Scottish immigrants landed back in 1773.
Scotsman Inn Brief History
The historic building that houses The Scotsman Inn, is right in the heart of Pictou. Located right in town off the main street, it has a very interesting and storied history.
From originating as a family home and general store, it also housed the towns; library, various businesses and a rental apartment building over the years.
Today, the present owner along with his wife and your hosts at the Inn, have refurbished the building into a beautiful historic; B&B Inn.

King Garden Suite
We had the distinct pleasure of staying in the very large; King Garden Suite.
Located on the main floor, this suite comes complete with a large sitting area, private bath and full size bedroom.
For those wishing a larger and more private room to spend their stay, this is a perfect choice!

There’s a nice added feature to the Inn and especially for those staying during the warm summer months.
Guests can enjoy relaxing outside in the fresh air on the; upper floor balcony. Complete with comfortable seating for you to sit back, relax and enjoy your stay.
As well, there’s a nice open grassy garden area, at the side of the Inn. It’s another lovely spot outside, where you can also sit and enjoy the outdoors and fresh air.
You are within minutes walking to the waterfront, shopping and area restaurants.
We enjoyed one of the most beautiful sunsets during our stay in Pictou!
Caribou Munroe Provincial Park is just 8 kilometers down the road as well. This is a lovely park on a beautiful stretch of beach.
A great place for a nice walk on the beach and picnic!
We had a wonderful stay and only wish we could have spent more time. Pictou is a perfect, very quiet and quaint seaside town to visit!
