Bed and Breakfast Description

Fairholm is one of Canada's National Historic Sites and is the only 5 Star Rated Canadian National Historic Inn. Because of its significance, a monument was placed at Fairholm by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada on behalf of the Government of Canada. The monument reads:

"This superb Picturesque villa is one of the finest homes built in pre-Confederation Canada. It was constructed about 1839 for politician and administrator T.H. Haviland Sr. (1795-1867). Basic to its design is the late 18th-century British taste for scenic composition of landscape and architecture. Here, the graceful bowed walls and extensive garden setting typical of the Picturesque style are wedded to the stately symmetry of classical design popular at the time in the Maritime Provinces. A rare example of early brick construction on the island, Fairholm retains much of its original interior."

The inn boasts seven spacious, well-appointed rooms with ensuite baths.

Experience Fairholm’s elegant interior and relax in its gardens.
