Holdsworth House History
The Holdsworth House was built in 1783, by Loyalist James Holdsworth. He came here with his family after the American Revolution. The family continued to live here until 1976. After that time, the house remained in the family(it was a rental property). We purchased the home in 1998, and started to restore the neglected house. This home is for people who enjoy historic homes and appreciate the quirkiness that comes with a house that is over 230 years old. The Holdsworth House allows guests to experience what it would have been like to live in a Loyalist home, but, with all the comforts of the modern era.
You can access the beach from the path leading from the backyard. Kayak rentals available in town, just 5 minutes from the house. Whale watching can be arranged with a discount for our guests(advance booking required). The historic sites of Annapolis Royal are 20 minutes by car. Kedjimkujik national park is a 40 minute drive. Plenty of hiking trails and canoe rentals available.

Summary: We had 4 nights here and really enjoyed it. The area is quiet and Digby town centre is only 5 minutes walk away. Only thing missing was a TV.

Summary: This home from the late 1700s was a pleasure to visit. Margaret and her partner have put in lots of effort in maintaining its history. It is very spacious and has a nice backyard with bbq and a lovely view. It’s a short walk into town. Thank you for a lovely stay, Margaret.

Summary: Margaret is a great host. She greeted us with historical information about the house and ideas for the area. We loved sitting in a 300+ year old house and imagining the people and conversations that took place there. There are a lot of antique artifacts. In the warmer weather, the outdoor deck area would be perfect for evening gatherings. There is a wonderful view of the bay. The kitchen is well equipped. Plenty of hot water for showers. The beds were comfortable. The en Suite bedrooms were lovingly furnished with quilts, furniture, and period touches. There is plenty of room for small groups. The house has all modern necessities including good WiFi and streaming TV. Sadly, no spirits of the past visited us! The house is centrally located with easy access to area attractions, yet is on a very quiet street. This house is perfect for those wanting to take a step back in time. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: Found it conveniently located near mid-center of the island. As listed, an older home with traditional charm. The bedrooms were well appointed with comfortable mattresses, clean sheets and towels. Only one shower upstairs, with 3 bathtubs - could use another shower. Overall was pleasant - quiet neighborhood. Would recommend to others.
