We have restored one of Ingonish’s oldest and most charming properties into an experience much more than just a place to rest your head. Salty Rose's is an experience in itself, offering the best of Cape Breton hospitality with four unique and comfortable rooms, fair trade coffee and delicious local fare at the Periwinkle Café, and a boisterous selection of art and craft from Nova Scotia's finest creatives.
