Our lugn retreat is located in West Cape, PEI. Just a few short kilometres to the south of us, sits the famous West Point Lighthouse, which has been photographed and painted by folks all over the world.  West Cape sits at the furthest western point of the island and looks directly across the Northumberland Strait towards the small town of Cap Lumiere, New Brunswick. 

During the month of August, lobster fishermen patrol our coastline in the early morning. A short drive to the north or to the south and you will be able to meet their boats and pick up some of their fresh catches.

We are sure that you will enjoy patrolling the red sand beach that is located directly in front of our cottage. You will feel like you have the entire beach to yourself, as there are only a couple of cottages nearby that have access to the same beach. Patrolling the beach for sea glass and shells will become a daily habit, we are sure! We also predict that you will become mesmerized by the grey seals as they sunbathe and feed on striped bass just off the shoreline. 

O'Leary is a friendly small town that is about 10 minutes away. O'Leary has a couple of small restaurants, a grocery store, a hardware store and even a Potato Museum. For those folks who might need to keep up on their other habits, a Tim Horton's is also located just outside of O'Leary.

The small city of Summerside is located to the south east and is less than an hour away. It contains everything that you might need for your holiday.
