Welcome to Sustainable Hill Wellness Resort, an 11-acre yoga retreat and campground nestled in the peaceful valley of Scotch Village, Nova Scotia. Perched alongside the Herbert River and surrounded by forest and meadow, our eco-minded haven invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect—with nature, community, and yourself. Whether you’re pitching a tent beneath the stars or staying in our tiny home, you’ll wake to birdsong, rustling trees, and the peaceful presence of farm life all around you. Our small-scale regenerative farm is home to sheep, chickens, quail, and our friendly border collie. Guests are welcome to book a guided farm tour to meet the animals and learn about our sustainable practices. Wander wooded trails, enjoy riverside relaxation, or discover the forest playground. Drop your kayak in up the river and paddle back to camp! We have a swimming hole perfect for paddling and floating too. Our open-air yoga deck hosts occasional classes and retreats that celebrate movement, mindfulness, and nature. You may find yourself here during a pop-up artisan market, a seasonal music night, or one of our community-focused wellness events. We host a wide variety of offerings throughout the year—from forest school programs and postpartum circles to folk music gatherings and farm-to-table dinners. While events vary by season, the atmosphere is always warm, welcoming, and rooted in intention. Sustainable Hill uses composting toilets, and natural building techniques to support a low-impact, mindful way of living. We invite you to unplug and tune into the rhythm of the land. Whether you’re seeking stillness, connection, or a taste of rural life, Sustainable Hill is more than a place to camp—it’s a space to reconnect, reflect, and feel at home in nature.

1 night at Porters Peak

My husband and I had a fantastic time at the chalet. Our first night in NV at Porter's land was a thrilling adventure in nature, with the delightful chorus of birds. I even had a refreshing dip in the lake, and we were up before sunrise to witness the stunning sight of the sun rising over the misty lake. It was an exhilarating experience in Porter's land, and we're already counting down the days until our next visit!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Breezy Petals. The dome was lovely - spacious, comfortable (especially during the much-needed rainstorm), and had everything we needed. Yun is an incredible host - we loved every minute.

2 nights at Natura Wilderness Resort

Our stay at the Natura Wilderness was amazing. Private, cute, and very well-maintained. The propane stove, shower, and toilet all worked great! The location is close to a provincial park and gas station / coffee spot. Not far from Windsor. It was the perfect place for us. We would definitely recommend!
