Very comfortable, clean and nice accomodations. The view of the lake is lovely. The location is a convenient launching point to the Cabot Trail. We loved the historical context and information provided. If you're going to visit the Alexander Graham Bell museum in Baddeck, you must stay here-- there is a rich history to be learned and John the Innkeeper... More

My husband and I spent 2 nights in the Library Room and were so enthralled by the whole feel of this inn and its keeper, John Pino. This man's heart and soul is in the place and he knows the area inside out and is a wealth of historical information. He prides himself on maintaining a clean, well-kept and super... More

This was our second stay at this B&B. The first stay was in the cottages and the last a couple of weeks ago in the Inn. There is something about the people of Cape Breton that makes you want to come back so we did. Don't expect luxury. Do expect great rooms and an innkeeper(John) that makes you welcome and... More

We spent three nights in the Library room and we were extremely comfortable. John is a great host and very knowledgeable about the area and its history. This property has a particular history of its own. A. Graham Bell spent much time in this house, making it an integral part of the local history. John's enthusiasm is contagious and made... More

We spent two nights at this property and throughly enjoyed every minute. The host John Pino is a GREAT innkeeper, very knowledgeable about the area, places to eat, see, enjoy and is very witty and entertaining. Our room was wonderful, a former local resident Alexander Graham Bell used the room for making many of his plans for his inventions and... More

We stayed 2 nights in a B&B room of the Broadwater Inn and Cottages at Baddeck, which also was the home of the McCurdy family - JAD McCurdy worked with AGBell on the Silver Dart airplane. We chose a room with deck looking over the lake which would have been lovely - unfortunately, it rained the whole time we were... More

We had a great 1 night stay in Baddeck at the Broadwater Inn. We originally thought we were booked in the main house, but upon arrival found that we were in one of the cabins. Just north of downtown and the Alexander Bell museum, the location has nice views over the lake, and is set back from the road providing... More

We were made to feel very welcome on arrival, even though we hadn't booked. John the innkeeper invited us to look at the cottages we asked about. We only needed 1 bedroom, but we're offered a 2 bedroom cottage for the same price. It was very nice and met all our needs. We also looked at a room named 'bay'... More

We loved the cabin we stayed in for a couple nights. Everything we needed was on hand, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. When the inn realized we were traveling with our dog, they were more than accommodating. We had ample space to walk him. The cottage had a beautiful deck with a... More
