August house is a beautiful hotel. The common sitting areas were lovely as were the staff. The breakfast was a continental breakfast and was also excellent with yogurt and granola and baked goods made fresh by the hotel. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful historic home with friendly staff and complimentary breakfast ( you have to try the homemade yogurt!). Its central location was good for day trips into Wolfville, Anapolis Valley, Digby, Halifax and Hall’s Harbour.

We had a wonderful reception, the owners friendly, kind, and helpful. We enjoyed our stay the beds were comfortable and clean, the bedroom was really nice and spacious, the design well laid out. The breakfast was tasty with a good variety to choose from. The whole house was beautifully decorated with lovely colours, we loved it.

Wonderful stay at The August House! Our renovated room was comfy and cosy and the bathroom was gorgeous. Loved the thoughtful touches throughout the house including ice cream sandwiches in the kitchenette fridge! The hosts were super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

8/10 Very good

Spacious bedroom, efficient check in and lovely breakfast. Windsor as a destination is quite disappointing with limited dining and lacks vitality

The August house is a beautiful boutique accommodation. The decor is beautiful and the rooms and facilities fantastic, we loved the little attention to detail. The breakfast was lovely too. We would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone and hope to stay here again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space.

We enjoyed everything about August House ... The only thing was that we found the bed a bit too firm.
Shelli, 3-night trip

Excellent clean spacious room, good breakfast, walkable into town in 5 mins, what more could you want. My only comment is glass containers for the products in the shower could be dangerous if dropped

We found August House while planning to visit family in town. It was very conveniently located and easy to find. The decor was very cozy, beautiful, clean and thoughtful. It was such a pleasure coming home to this relaxing location at the end of our busy days. It is a shame we couldn’t stay for longer. Everything was so perfect, including the wonderful breakfast!
Zoe, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We LOVED our stay at The August House. We were in town for a nearby wedding, and this was a perfect home base. Beautiful property, we felt safe and it was very quiet. Loved all of the little touches around the property. The self controlled AC was a bonus for two people who love a cooler temp, and the sound machine was a nice addition as well. Only good things to say. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area.

What a unique place! Breakfast was fantastic, the decor is gorgeous, the little extras were very thoughtful and kind. We found it because we needed a room to sleep 3, which dramatically reduced the options for us, but what a gem we uncovered because of it! We had a great time playing trivia games and listening to your excellent vinyl collection in the lounge in the evening. Definitely would stay again if we’re ever back in town!

Beautiful property and room with a comfortable bed. Enjoyed our stay!

We booked the Best King Room which had a private sunroom with a kitchenette. Every detail was thought of when designing this room as well as the common areas of the house. Our short stay was perfect. We wouldn’t change a thing (but maybe to stay longer if we visit again).
