Are you "Drawn to the Sea"? 

Let our Luxury Lighthouse's be your home away from home as you explore beautiful Cape Breton Island!

Located in the Village of Baddeck on the shores of Bras d'Or Lakes, a vast 1000-square kilometer in-land sea that possess' magical qualities, salt-air breezes, good winds and rarely any fog. 

Baddeck is considered to be the beginning and end of the world famous Cabot Trail. 

Discover the beauty of Baddeck where our most famous resident "Alexander Graham Bell" built his summer home on his estate called "Beinn Bhreagh" - Gaelic for "Beautiful Mountain". 

Bell is commemorated at the Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site which contains the largest repository of artifacts and documents from Bell's years of experimental work in Baddeck, a must see during your vacation.

Each of our Lighthouse's are dedicated to memory of Alexander Graham & Mabel Bell and the significant contributions they made to our community.

Just like Alexander & Mabel Bell often said, "you will find magic at every turn"!

Come and discover the magic of "Selkie's Rest"!
