Built in 1860 and overlooking the lovely tree-lined park on Hillsborough
Square in the heart of historic Charlottetown PEI, our bed and
breakfast home has been slowly restored since 1990 as Joan’s
personal project. The four upstairs bedrooms (named after the four
seasons)
are decorated
in country Victorian style. All are cosily carpeted, quaint and
generous in size with their own individual locks. The 2 bathrooms
have modern showers and the original clawfoot tubs for soaking
in. The guest kitchen offers you a fridge and a place to make yourself
a “cuppa” before you put your feet up and relax with
a book in the Lothian Library or in front of the TV/VCR in the
Victorian parlour.
At breakfast as you tuck into cereal or oatmeal, muffins or scones,
toast, coffee, tea or juice you may become acquainted with guests
from all over the world – the conversations are known to
make people linger longer than intended. You can also enjoy the
quiet of the garden and deck or have a snooze on the swing. You’ll
get lots of advice on what to do and see so you’ll make full
use of every moment. The room diaries written by previous guests
will entertain you and clue you in about what to do and where to
go. All the best boutiques, restaurants and important historic
buildings are in the neighbourhood - the legendary Old Dublin Pub
is just up the street.
Guests have free use of the phone, there is safe parking on the
street and a garage for bicycles. You will have your own keys so
you can come and go as you please. Clocks are hard to find at Heart’s
Content Bed and Breakfast, so slow down and stay for a few days
- the weekly rates are so reasonable and there is no extra charge
for
service
in French,
a history lesson on PEI or for Joan’s Scottish hospitality.
No where on the Island is very far from Heart’s Content Bed
and Breakfast. It’s a great place to stay in Charlottetown.
