Seasons
The setting stays the same; the reasons to linger change. Spring brings magnolias and new garden colour, summer opens up the days, and fall follows the harvest through the Annapolis Valley.
Choose the season that suits you: a morning among the flowers, a long evening by the Basin, or a country drive through the changing leaves. Bailey House makes a comfortable place to begin and end the day, with Annapolis Royal’s old streets, gardens and good tables close by.
Find your season.
There is no single way to spend a few days here. Follow the blossoms, fill a summer day with a little of everything, or come back when the valley turns to harvest. Each season has its own pleasures.

Spring
Magnolias along the old streets, spring colour in the gardens and mornings watching the birds at French Basin.

Summer
Gardens in their fullest colour, the Saturday market, days along the coast and dinner a short walk from the house.

Fall
Country roads through the valley, harvest stalls, changing leaves and a slower afternoon in town.

set the pace.
Walk the waterfront and the grounds of Fort Anne, find an exhibition or a café, then leave time to explore beyond the town. The gardens, wetlands and valley roads give each visit a different view.
Our activities and events calendar brings together local outings and what’s on during your stay. We are always glad to help you put a day together.
