My girlfriend and I stayed at Evening Sail for two nights on a sunny but cold winter weekend to get away from the daily grind and spend a weekend relaxing.

We stayed for 2 nights in October 2012 and yes Pictou is a small town and it was towards the end of the season but it was still a pleasent stay. Breakfast time was a pleasure and the food and conversation wonderful. We both loved the pumpkin pancakes. The room was lovely and the bed enormous and very comfy. Thank... More

Beautiful room, welcoming owner and perfect breakfast. The area was somewhat of a disappointment but that did not detract from our B&B experience. Owner suggested great restaurant for dinner and discussed areas to visit during our trip. Highly recommend.

There are not enough stars to recommend this B&B. We were greeted by Michelle as if we were the oldest of friends.

Max's Landing room comfortable, spotlessly clean, 1st floor with balcony, small bathroom but otherwise very pleasant & well decorated. Breakfasts were excellent, tasty, more than you can eat & always pastries to take with you for the day. Michelle & Gail were superb hosts. DS, LMD

Breakfast was ample and was served family style and so we... More

We stayed in the Evening Sail B&B’s second-story Seashell room while passing through Pictou on our way to Cape Breton. It's a well-managed, welcoming, nicely appointed, and charming little place. The bedroom was furnished with a comfortable spacious bed; a couple of sitting chairs and small table; a concealed compact refrigerator; a dresser; a spotless bathroom; and ample space for... More
