Chisholms of Troy Coastal Cottages and Suites sit on a 100 acre ancestral oceanfront farm property here on Route 19 in Troy, Cape Breton Island. Your host and owner, James Mac Donald is a member of the sixth generation of the Chisholm family on this property, first settled in the very early 1800s by Anne Chisholm and her immigrant family from Scotland.
A working farm until the early 1990s, the property has been brought back to life as a four-star Canada Select rated cottage and suite property. The original home built almost two hundred years ago has been lovingly restored to original design and the barn now converted to our office and four courtyard suites.

If Celtic music is what draws you to Cape Breton then staying at Chisholm's Coastal Cottages & Suites puts you in the best location to take in all these events. Daily and nightly Ceilidhs are on offer seven days a week in season, all with easy driving distance from your suite or cottage. There is live Cape Breton music seven days and nights at the Celtic Music Interpretive Centre located in Judique, a short fifteen minute drive along the coast.
Our property sits right on the Ceilidh Coastal Trail, part of the Trans Canada Trail System.

A twenty five minute walk will take you through our meadow, over the trail and into the warm ocean directly out from the cottages.

The cottages were immaculately clean and so carefully decorated. From the seashell shaped cloths to the high quality bath towels to the ice made in the freezer. The owners obviously take great pride in their business and it shows. The high ceilings make the cottages feel more like a home than a cottage. These are truly the nicest cottages we have ever stayed at and the VIEW is spectacular. The owners are some of the nicest people I have ever met. Highly Recommend and when we return to this area we will stay again.

Have to love this cottage, as it is well maintained strategically equip, and reasonably priced. The owner operator, a pleasant gentleman, always really take care of their business!
Location is far from the national park, but them closer to Halifax airport, making it easy to fly back without another stopover at Halifax, which was the primary reason behind my search and booking.
