Mad Hatter Hostel - Parrsboro, Nova Scotia

palandry

Avec un nom comme le "chapelier fou" (mad hatter), on peut s'attendre à quelque chose de décalé. Sur place, on découvre une auberge qui me rappelle la maison de mes grands-parents au niveau de la déco et de l'accueil. C'est simple et chaleureux. ||||L'immense cuisine est accessible ce qui nous permet de se faire à manger (si nécessaire). Les lits sont petits mais confortables. Les chambres semblent avoir été décoré par une personne agée... Et ça donne un résultat vraiment charmant. Décalé mais charmant!||||Une belle découverte que je recommande sans hésité!

A homey stay in Kathy’s lovely family home, with enjoyable chats and such amazing value for what is charged. Very generous host and I immediately felt at ease. Clean rooms and everything we could want, almost like being at home. Thanks Kathy

We stayed 2 nights at The Mad Hatter Hostel - we were glad to find it as it was in early April and most other options were not open for the season yet.
We felt right at home. We had the big room with a queen size bed - just got to watch that low door way! Old house quirks!
We had free use of the kitchen and it is a great deal for the price.

We were very appreciative of Kathy's warm hospitality. The private room we stayed in was huge, with a super comfy queen bed. Everything was clean and well organized. Kathy has a heart of gold, is very knowledgable about not only Nova Scotia, but of wold travel experiences as well. Such a fun time chatting and laughing together.

Stayed here for two nights at the end of a working holiday. Kathy is great. Very friendly and very hospitable. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Good common area with well equipped kitchen facilities. It's also very reasonably priced. I recommend this hostel to anybody travelling through the area and if I'm back I'll certainly be staying here again.

Came for a visit to tour on our motorbike around the beautiful Chignecto Park, the famous Joggins Fossil Cliffs and the highest tides in the world. Firstly, Kathy greets you like family, her home is yours. The place is homey, clean, and every thing you need provided. It is central for visiting the whole area. Although small, it has accommodations to suit every need. Our beds were very comfy and had home made quilts to add to the country flavour.

Kathy is a well-traveled lady who is familiar with hostels. She turned her third century home into the best. Forget hostel and call it "home". We had the double room with a queen bed and low door but a few head bumps didn't dampen our enthusiasm. Everything you need is here.

Probably the smallest hostel I stayed in Canada! Cathy is a lovely and caring host. She helped me a lot with getting around the area which can be a bit tricky, if you don't have a car.

Another plus point: she opens the hostel all year around! So, best place for an off-season holiday and trip to Cape Chignecto!
