My Mother's Country Inn, Hunter River, Prince Edward Island

My Mother's Country Inn is a beautiful historic home (circa 1850) that has recently been refurbished with modern amenities. This four and a half star Inn (Canada Select Bed and Breakfast rating) offers an idyllic country setting near the central Prince Edward Island North Coast, with easy access to all popular visitor attractions.

The Inn is located on what was, at the turn of the century, a hub of activity. It was not just a working farm but also included a saw and grist mill, a general store and a blacksmith. The property remains one of the few original homesteads in rural PEI. The setting inspires a stroll through the 50 acres of farm fields, rolling hills, woodlands and streams. The Old Mill Pond welcomes guests along a country lane which leads to a large and spacious farmhouse.

For additional privacy we offer the options of an executive three bedroom cottage with complete privacy; large bath with walk-in glass shower, whirlpool tub; eat in kitchen with dishwasher and microwave. Wrap-around deck with river view has gas bar-b-que. Totally renovated, tastefully furnished. Or our one bedroom cottages with complete kitchen, eat in space, living room with day bed, television. Patio doors lead to private deck overlooking the pond. Also fully renovated, the fresh air and beauty of the Island are just a step outside your own door.

The Inn offers numerous accommodation options. Each room has a private bath ensuite with a whirlpool tub. While modern comforts have been added through renovations, the unique character of a Prince Edward Island farmhouse remains intact. Large windows provide wonderful views of your rural surroundings.

We believe in comfort and luxury with a European flair. Our rooms offer a private oasis to rest and relax after a day of touring and playing. The deluxe honeymoon suite features a large sitting area with a fireplace, a king size bed, walk-in closet and colour television with cable. The spectacular bath ensuite, with a double jacuzzi, multijet walk-in glass shower and private balcony, is an experience in itself. The room invites you to pamper yourself. You're on vacation.

Begin your day with a deluxe continental breakfast in our dining room or summer garden room both overlooking the pond. The buffet is a great start to activities or leisure you plan for your day.
