We just completed our third visit to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, a very beautiful place with a wonderful Celtic and Acadian culture. The Normaway Inn, a small rural inn, somewhat rustic, but a very comfortable place to stay for a few nights or longer, especially if you are a fisherman/woman. The food is simply excellent and you won't be disappointed.... More

We stayed 8 nights at the Normaway Inn during Celtic Colours in one of their cabins. The cabin was clean, furnished eclectically, but perfectly comfortable. The view out of our front window was of a pasture with horses playing. Also, lots of walking trails and unbelievably good breakfasts and dinners. A real plus is the music in the living room... More

My husband and I spent two nights in a cabin at the Normaway Inn in the Margaree Valley. It is a peaceful, relaxing, beautiful spot surrounded by Cape Breton hills. The dining room serves gourmet breakfasts and dinners. The cabins are quaint and well furnished with a wood-burning stove and a swing in the porch. The king-sized bed was very... More

Stayed 2 night's at the inn, people friendly, lovely cabin with porch, screened to prevent any invasion of insects. Set in lovely grounds, with plenty of walks around. Both evening meal and breakfast were delicious and adequate. Had music in the evenings, something on every night, really enjoyable. Close enough to outdoor activities like whale watching and kayaking, we did... More

Reading some previous comments on here I felt compelled to test the need for a sharper knife to cut my steak. I can report that the steak was so tender the butter knife was more than adequate. A delightful place to stay, super music in the Barn, friendly service and wholesome well cooked food should serve most people well. For... More

I recently stayed in a cabin on Wednesday night where the music in the barn was awesome (Kyle and Shamus from the Barra MacNeils and Brenda Stubbert among others) as well as stepdancers and square sets! From the phone call to make the reservation through to the time I departed I felt like the place was meant for me. You... More

While touring the coastline of Cape Breton, we decided to go inland a bit and found our way to the Normaway Inn. Stayed three nights in a great cabin with screened-in porch that had a bench swing. It was spacious and clean and the beds we very comfortable. We loved the location. Every night there was entertainment in the living... More

The owner of this Inn is using deceptive practices to get business. He charged a room fee to my credit card before I showed up to see the place and then used that as leverage to force me to stay, telling me no refund was possible. I had booked over the telephone with his staff 18 hours before showing up.... More

Visited early Aug 2012. Had made reservations which they could not find. The place smelled of mildew, mold and sewage. Was dark, old and not air conditioned...definitely not what we had expected. I'm sure decades ago they were a place to stay. We did not take a room.
