I've been travelling to Yarmouth for a number of years, and the service and hospitality offered byTwyla and Bruce are second to none. The B&B is well maintained, clean and spacious. The grounds are magnificent and it's very pleasant to enjoy an evening refreshment sitting on the outside patio. The rooms are equipped with flat screen cable television and the... More

I stayed at Guest Lovitt House B&B while in Yarmouth for the World Junior A Challenge. The home is absolutely beautiful, the attention to detail is spot on and so lovely and clean! The rooms are tastefully decorated and you truly feel so welcome and comfortable in their home. Twyla is a lovely, bubbly and kind woman, who went above... More

Loved everything about this stay - from being greeted with a glass of wine and sitting in the gazebo, to chatting with Twyla about her wonderful dog, Molly. The house is immaculate as are the grounds. The rooms are enormous, the bathrooms updated, quiet and private. The breakfast was amazing and delicious. The night we stayed, a Nor'wester came through... More

This B&B is the stylished accomodation we had in Nova Scotia. The 3 story building built in 1874, has a verry intersting background which can be followed on the B&B homepage. I'm sure that todays owner Twyla and Bruce take care of the jewel. The king sized bed in room #1 was very comfortabel and the breakfast awesome! We would... More

My husband and I recently did a motorbike trip through Nova Scotia. Our last place to stay was at the Guest Lovitt House in Yarmouth. I found this gem on the internet and after reading reviews on trip advisor booked two nights. At one point we nearly had to cancel one of our nights prior to arriving. I was a... More

Rarely would we stay in a B & B if we have the option of a fine boutique hotel, but the options were limited in Yarmouth -- and we struck gold. The Guest and Lovitt families built this exquisite "great house," three stories with 12 foot ceilings, in 1874 so this facility has the bones of one of Europe's manor... More

Our opinion is that there is nothing to compare with this great B & B. Well-run by an extremely energetic lady, who strives to present and provide guests with the very best. The experience of staying in this beautiful historic house is worthhile in all respects.

My stay here was the most comfortable out of all the b&b's on the south shore. Our hosts were super accommodating and we felt like home. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice relaxing stay with great food and good people.

We could only spend one night at Guest-Lovitt B & B, back in late September 2011, but must say it is a very comfortable, beautifully cared for B & B and we could definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking to stay in Yarmouth, NS. Lovely breakfast as well! We flew over from Portland, MN on a Twin Cities... More

You may enter our B&B as a traveling professional, vacationer or a honeymooner. Yet you will share an experience and a feeling common to all of our guest: A desire to remember and to return. You can enjoy a complimentary glass of Nova Scotia wine, either in the widow’s watch or outside in the gazebo. Bring along your swimsuit and take in the outdoor hot tubs any time of year. You can also experience a ride in our 1913 Model T through the streets of historic Yarmouth, of course in season and weather permitting (we must remember the old Tin Lizzie is almost 100 years old).
