The white and blue colours of Castlerock Country Inn are a familiar sight along the Cabot Trail, located near to Ingonish Ferry, on the eastern side of Cape Breton Island. The property looks out over the Middle Head Peninsula, Atlantic Ocean and Cape Breton beyond, giving guests spectacular panoramic views from the dining room, patio area and the lawns that stretch down in front of the building. This boutique hotel has 17 simple guestrooms, all with queen beds, en suite bathroom and coffee making facilities, and a delicious home-cooked buffet breakfast is included in your stay. The Avalon restaurant offers a fusion of traditional Canadian fare alongside Asian recipes, often using fresh, local seafood and organic produce and, given the limited selection of nearby eateries, is a favourite with locals and visitors alike.
