This place was absolutely beautiful! Would stay again. The rooms and grounds were beautiful. We also had a small back sitting area that had two chairs and a table and was nice as well as private with having other guests on either side. There was live music and tours but we did not partake vut if we had more time we may have. Only thing I mentioned because i am traveling with a toddler is that the doors should have a way to lock on the inside thats not easily opened by little hands. Very minor detail.

Not the vibe we were looking for. Property was beautiful, our cabin was lovely. The live music was nice but a bit dull.

Glenora Distillery is a unique place to stay along Cabot Trail/Cape Breton. Our room was comfortable, yet for the price I would’ve expected a little higher quality linens, towels.

Setting great. If you’re a whiskey drinker, this could be paradise, as well as a romantic getaway. Very nice rooms. We did not eat there, as we wanted to broaden the experience. Highly recommend the Red Shoe Pub nearby, which had Cape Breton fiddlers and keyboard. Glenora had a solo guitarist singing Springsteen and similar tunes. Not what we wanted.

Would not stay again unless it’s for the booze tour and what not. Overpriced and not very convenient.

Rough and dangerous road to the chalet. Very noisy fridge kept us awake all night. Uncomfortable beds and finally overpriced.

We stayed in chalet 10. The idea is nice but value for money just wasn’t there in my opinion. Mind you it was a very hot stretch of weather but the small bottom level window AC just didn’t keep the chalet upstairs sleeping area cool. It was very hot to try and sleep and on the noisy side. We expected more. Also we didn’t have a blind on our main window so when one of us had to come downstairs to try and get sleep, it was unnerving to have no window covering. Disappointing for the money we spent and not a good night’s sleep. On the plus side, the food in the pub was quite good and the staff were lovely.
