First impressions
From first glance The Sheiling Guesthouse demands closer inspection. The building's natural wood cladding, green, steeply-pitched, metal-tiled roof and natural stone accents allow it to blend effortlessly into its surroundings. Hand-crafted, wrought iron railings and paths lined with native stone enhance the rugged hillside into which the building has been set. Balconies and windows, strategically placed and opening onto incomparable views of the foothills of the Cape Breton Highlands or over the lush and fertile Baddeck River Valley, provide breath-taking panoramas of the beauty that surrounds us. And, for your convenience, The Sheiling is mere steps from the adjacent Cloisters and your dining venue, Flavours of Crown Jewel.

It's what's inside that counts
Our Canada Select - 4 stars fully air conditioned Sheiling provides exceptional comfort in a simple yet elegant setting. Our 8 suites, individually decorated with restful, autumn palettes, are beautifully appointed with hand crafted, solid native yellow birch furnishings and hardwood flooring to enhance the rugged beauty of the integrated, exposed hand-hewn timbers. Sheepskin area rugs, our high thread count, 100% Egyptian cotton bed linens, topped with hand-made quilts that reflect the changing seasons, add just a touch of whimsy. On the practical side, our well-lit, three-piece baths are equipped with state of the art equipment, an endless supply of hot water and, to quench your thirst, chemical-free drinking water. Sound-proof division walls and concrete sub-floors ensure both a peaceful and quiet stay as well as your privacy. And, to further ensure healthy, clean air, The Sheiling is a non-smoking facility.
