House holiday rentals in Timberlea

This house blew us away and we’ve stayed a lot of spaces. Honestly, it’s one of those rare places that’s actually better than the photos. Every room was so clean, and beautifully designed but still felt incredibly welcoming and comfortable. Our group of eight had tons of space to spread out and unwind. We only stayed three nights but instantly wished we’d booked the whole week. It’s the perfect distance for all the day trips we wanted to take. We explored Halifax, Peggy’s Cove and even Lunenburg and Wolfville (loved this place, it’s so cute!). I mean then there’s the games room, lake, pool and water toys. If you're on the fence—don’t be. I would highly recommend to anyone to book this house and book longer than you think. We’ll absolutely be back, and next time we’re staying for the week!

Appreciate the quick responses and getting the place ready with such short notice. Plane diversions from weather caused us to end up unexpectedly in Halifax - nice to keep the whole family together and ended up really enjoying the great area.

JP was very friendly and we enjoyed the animals.

Fantastic hosts. Dream heritage property with total privacy and a heated pool in a park like setting; we booked that property pretty much every year for the last seven years. Rob and Barb are constantly improving the property, there is always something new to discover, whether it's a new appliance, or a brand new landscaped river frontage inviting you to sit and watch river and ocean life whilst sipping a glass of tasty red provided with the welcome basket. We enjoyed eating out at the Lunenburg restaurants, as much as we enjoyed cooking a delicious meal at their place, which is fully equipped, one can easily cook up a gourmet meal. Golden! And we shall return!! Greetings from Port Lorne, NS, Conny and Fred.

WOW!! Firstly. I was a little reluctant to book as there was no reviews when I made the booking. This turned out to be a blessing. The place is absolutely freshly renovated. And completely spotless. Secondly, I am an Airbnb landlord myself, so consider myself a tough critic. OK, I can’t find a single negative thing to say. It exceeds the pictures in every way, house is incredibly luxurious, clearly designed and built by professionals, and most importantly, is decorated and equipped through the lens of people who understand hospitality. Lunenburg Harbour is across the water, like a postcard. Gorgeous swimming pool, two working fireplaces. Gym, beautiful kitchen with high-end brand new appliances. General store at the end of the road looks built for a movie. If I had the money, I’d buy it from them and never move out. Had a brief question for the owner, her response was immediate and detailed. 10 out of 10. Will absolutely come back.

Great place! Stunning views of the lake!!

I booked CJ’s place last minute for member of our company’s upper management team. He went above and beyond for us given the tight timeline, was very attentive, provided clear instructions and was more than willing to help with unforeseen circumstances. My team had nothing but phenomenal things to stay about not only the property, but the property owner as well. We give a glowing recommendation for anyone interested in this property in the future

Another Great Stay at The Land Yacht! This was our second time staying at The Land Yacht, and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. They have everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable getaway. The indoor pool was amazing, and the views of the ocean are absolutely breathtaking. One of our favorite moments was reading a book in the solarium while listening to the rain—pure bliss. The peaceful atmosphere, thoughtful amenities, and beautiful setting make this a truly special place. We can’t wait to return again!

Absolutely stunning home! Well stocked and maintained. We were very happy with our stay! The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. We had one small issue which was handled very quickly and smoothly!! Thank you for a lovely stay! Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for hosting us. We had an amazing time and really appreciated your warm hospitality. This is such a beautiful place with a breathtaking view—it was truly unforgettable.

From the moment we arrived at this charming cottage, we were blown away by the breathtaking view. It made every sunrise and sunset feel magical. The amenities were equally impressive. The cottage was clean, and beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we needed - from a fully stocked kitchen to linens and even games for a rainy day. The location was fantastic, as we were just minutes away from local grocery stores and a mix of eateries - perfect for grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a leisurely dinner. Plus, the area is packed with sightseeing adventures and historic landmarks to hidden gems we discovered along the way. This place felt like home away from home and we can’t wait to go back again!

We loved our stay at this unique Bauhaus-style home in a quiet Halifax neighbourhood. It was stylish, spotless, and perfectly located—close to great restaurants, breweries, and beautiful parks. Brittany was super helpful at check-in and gave us some excellent local recommendations that really added to our experience. A peaceful base with easy access to everything we wanted to explore!

We loved our stay at Tracey and Aahil’s place! It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The backyard was majestic - if only it had of been a bit warmer and sunnier to sit out and enjoy. Hoping we can stay again when we visit the area.

A lovely comfortable well equipped place. Only complaint was that the cleaners forgot to clean under the beds! Aldo no instructions to put on the heating unit.

Our stay was exceptional, and this was one of the best equipped stays I've booked (and a great kitchen). The location is wonderful- it's extremely private even though it's close to everything. The home has an amazing yard to unwind, too. Matthew communicated clearly and proactively and goes above and beyond.

Our trip to Nova Scotia was a special celebration for our daughter. We chose the Den of Zen for a number of reasons, all of which exceeded our expectations: beautiful setting on a lake; clean and modern interior; an elixir of natural light from a wall of windows; use of great amenities such as a sauna, hot tub, and grill; close to Halifax/airport and easy access to routes for day trips; and comfortable beds. What was remarkable was the incredible hospitality of our hostess, Shelley, who made the trip THE best by offering attraction suggestions and keeping in touch to answer our questions. She was so attentive. We highly recommend a stay at the Den of Zen!

We had a wonderful stay on Chocolate Lake at Hiromi's property. We loved waking up each morning and having tea and coffee whilst looking out over the lake. The property is very stylishly designed and comfortable, and a perfect place from which to explore Halifax, Peggy's Cove and Lunenberg. We were unable to figure out the automatic blinds and lights as the tablet apps were not working. A minor inconvenience in an otherwise fantastic stay!

Raquel’s place, “Vista Del Mar,” is absolutely gorgeous!! The open concept of the main level allows for guests to dine and intermingle while enjoying the picturesque view of St. Margaret’s Bay. Raquel was quick to respond to messages and was a pleasure to talk to! A short scenic drive to Peggy’s Cove and Halifax. Would definitely recommend this spot to anyone travelling to Nova Scotia. Thank you Raquel for having our group at your place!

Randy’s property is absolutely stunning and super private. It had everything I needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of my crazy life. He brought fresh firewood over and showed me how to use the fireplace. The added touches of his beautifully designed furniture and decor just made the whole home feel so cozy and unique. I love that he displayed some beautiful art from local artists as well. I made good use of the sauna and hot tub. Everything was immaculate and clean. I would highly suggest booking Randy’s spot - if you can find an opening in their very busy calendar! One thing to note is that it is not close to restaurants but that did not bother me as I brought my own food and had the option to cook, which I prefer! There’s also filtered water for drinking in the kitchen. Such an elevated but also rustic home away from home.

This home was absolutely beautiful, even better than the pictures make it look! We were impressed at how much space we had which made it a perfect home base for a week-long stay in Nova Scotia. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful without being too far from downtown and we enjoyed the many amenities of Larry Uteck as well! Xiuyan and the cohost were very responsive and flexible which we truly appreciated.

My favorite airbnb ever! So clean and comfortable and well-stocked, also really beautifully decorated. Private but also a convenient location. I loved greeting the animals at the farm next door every morning and hanging out on the beach or in the garden. Angie & Scott were super helpful and welcoming. I hope I can stay again!

Jennifer was great and the place was perfect for us. Had lots of fun and felt at home!

My son had the pleasure of staying in Derek and Doreen's beautiful place for over a month. The home had everything he needed and more! It was an easy distance to the airport where he was working, yet nestled in a tranquil, woodsy area; so peaceful yet with all the amenities necessary nearby. The home inside was even better than the pictures: modern, spacious, and comfortable. We couldn't be happier with the stay. Thank you so much to this lovely couple for providing such a fantastic stay! 😊

Jeff’s place was amazing. Extremely spacious and clean, we felt right at home.
