The Blue Church!
Loved it! Homely, eccentric, a stunning conversion. We had a great time in this gorgeous space and it was the perfect family base from which to explore and a ‘home’ to return to. My son and I loved hearing an approaching train and sprinting down to the crossing to see them pass. 😆 Jim is delightfully passionate about his place and rightly so, look forward to coming back!

Wonderful week in Stewiacke
Absolutely lovely place to stay! Jim (fantastic host) has kept the character of the Church, yet made it modern and comfortable. This was our second stay and we will be back next year.

A Uniquely Special Experience
What a special place! Jim has done an amazing job restoring the old church into a wonderfully modern space while keeping several of the unique church features like the beautiful windows and baptismal fount. Convenient to Halifax and Truro too.

A beautiful Holiday wonderland!
The Trinity is one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. Jim's attention to detail is complete and to be able to stay in such a beautiful place that was all "dressed up" for the Holidays, made for a simply delightful weekend away!

Unique property!
We absolutely loved TheTrinity! This was by far the most unique property we’ve ever stayed in! From the size to the amazing decor & outdoor veranda it was truly incredible! We liked the location as it is a short drive to either Truro or Halifax. I only wish we could have stayed longer to really enjoy everything it had to offer! What a transformation from a church to an amazing property! Thank you Jim!

Fun and comfortable
We really enjoyed our stay in this very unique rental. The space is so beautiful and we really felt quite special - like we were staying in a work of art. Jim was very kind and helped us get settled and involved the kids which was great. They loved the lights and the jungle theme! The outdoor space is really pretty as well. We wish we'd had more time to enjoy it. Thank you very much for creating such a wonderful space and opening it up for us to enjoy! The café across the street is great as well!

The castle
Amazing home with every amenity. The owner was good to deal with. My 5 year old niece said she felt like a princess staying in a ‘castle.’ I suppose it does have that feel. It was very clean. Will stay again and certainly recommend.

A slice of heaven!
The pictures simply do not do The Trinity justice - from the 25’ vaulted ceilings to the perfectly (and completely) appointed kitchen, we could not have imagined a better location for our weekend away. I am already booking it again! Jim was an amazing host, friendly and helpful. A gorgeous fire in the wood stove to keep away the chill, and a huge TV to watch our scary movie on for Halloween - in a word, perfect. My only regret was leaving.

Trinity Church in Stewiacke
From the moment we opened the door we were very impressed. The renovation was done so well -maintaining the character of a small town church as well as updating the kitchen and living spaces to create a comfortable and inviting stay. Our host, Jim, was wonderful and very helpful. We ;would definitely recommend staying here and are looking forward to returning soon.

My partner and I celebrated her birthday here, we were in awe of the beauty of the property. We brought groceries and cooked some Amazing meals in the well stocked kitchen. The owner Jim was super helpful and stewiacke is a sweet little town! The pictures are great, but this place needs to be seen in person. We were in awe as we entered into the main space.

What a great place to stay! The photos really don't do this space justice - think full cathedral wood ceilings and all of the lovely charms of an old church but cozy and comfortable. We loved using the wood stove and the huge kitchen for making all of our meals. Would love to come back soon.

One of the most beautiful places we have stayed at. It has everything you need and more. We stayed in, cooked a great meal in a beautiful kitchen, played games and ended the evening outside by the fire table. The host was very gracious. We highly recommend this place and will be back again.

Perfect in Every Way!
This property has everything you could possibly need and more. Very comfy king-sized bed, the best bathroom ever, laundry room, and fabulous kitchen as well as a deck with Bar BQ. The renovations to this church are truly beautiful and authentic. Many special touches have been added, such as stained-glass that is backlit, remote controls for all the electronics (lights in kitchen, TV, stereo, etc...), dimmer switches on all lights and two wonderful ceiling fans. We were able to totally relax and feel at home here. Jim was a great host who responded to any and every request almost immediately. Highly recommend this little piece of heaven.
