This century-old former sea captain’s house is situated on the waterfront, overlooking a working fishing wharf. Free WiFi is available and on-site parking is included at no extra cost.

Brilliant old house, in great condition. The yrd wants some love though. I'd be happy to rebuild the stone walls.

    After 32 years since my last visit, I was saddened to find that the bustling daily life and historical scenes of my past recollected experience were no longer present (lots of costumed interpreters, horses and carts, auctions, active village programs throughout the day, period meals served in the food purveyor spaces). The life and character of this historical fortress apparently died a COVID death as very few individuals were around to bring to life the settlement in its heyday. Barely any animals to be seen and lots of closed buildings. Our highlight was the bakery and buying fresh bread. Unfortunately a disappointment but hopefully some federal funding can inject new life into this excellent site in the near future.

    The Fortress is an amazing Canadian landmark accomplishment,...

    The Fortress is an amazing Canadian landmark accomplishment, a historical treasurer! We took 2 tours, the first was a Solider in period dress who shared his life story, and actually shot his rifle to demonstrate. He then escorted us to one of the homes, where we were met by a woman in period dress who shared life in the household and the history of homemade hot chocolate which she had prepared for us. We also booked a private tour; our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing the history of the Louisbourg fortress! Every building we entered had amazing people in period dress, sharing stories of life at that time...this experience is where history truly comes to life. Thank you Canada!

    Louisburg is an amazing town with an incredibly rich history. The Heritage House reflects that beautifully with its rooms and hallways and dining areas that reflect our history. The breakfasts were just amazing and in a wonderful setting. We could walk anywhere in the town and easily access delicious food, drinks and beautiful scenery.

    We had a great time visiting the Fortress of Louisbourg and exploring some country roads in the area. Staff at the Fortress was very welcoming. It was a great experience learning about what life was like back in the 1700s

    As a history lover, the fortress is fascinating. The experience is scaled down a bit due to COVID-19 restrictions but still enjoyable seeing the site and interacting with the friendly and knowledgeable costumed guides.

    The owner David is absolutely wonderful. Accommodation is cute and was very clean. I assumed that you would hear the other guests in the house as I believe it’s a wood frame but it was surprisingly quiet despite an almost full house. Bed was comfortable, they have blackout blinds, air con in room- I slept well. I’m not really a breakfast person but I would say- Don’t miss the breakfast here, it was delicious!

    We loved the close proximity to the Fortress of Louisburg, since that was our main reason for travelling to Cape Breton. The Fortress is only a few minutes up the road from Pecks. The cottage was very clean and had the necessities. Full kitchen, bathroom, 2 decent sized bedrooms and a pull out sofa. Staff was friendly and it was an enjoyable stay.

    Upon arrival the outside looks like it needs a little love, but inside is stunning. Our room was beautiful and very comfortable. Breakfast the next day was down the road at a second inn. It was a lovely breakfast and an ideal opportunity to speak with other guests. Great location to the Louisbourg Fort.

    I was a little confused about whether I had booked the old Point of View or the newly refurbished North Star. It was indeed North Stat and didn’t disappoint! Great location & views, great bar area, little gift shop and lovely accommodation. If you come to louisbourg, eat &/or stay here!

    The proximity of the Louisbourg fortress. The flowers of the front porch of all the cottages was a lovely touch. The cottages are small but make great use of the space.
