41km from Cole Harbour · 15 sites · Tents · Cooks Brook, NS
Moo Nay Farms is a located in Cooks Brook, Nova Scotia, about an hour from Halifax and 20 minutes from our local airport. We are a 100 acre free range beef, pig and rabbit farm, and horse boarding facility on a corner bordering on 2 rivers, a running brook and a sitting on a huge pile of sand. We encourage our campers to also be free range and choose any nice quiet spot they find, a wide open sand lot, along the river, or deep in the woods. Campers are free to set up tents and sites on either side of the pasture, I don't allow trailer campers in the pastures as the cows tend to like to use them as scratching posts and can damage units. You never know when a litter of piglets is going to be born, a new calf arrives, or when the cows will skip the fence and we call on ya for a cattle drive, but always guaranteed something interesting is going to happen on the farm. We welcome campers to bring their pets responsibly, please be aware it is a livestock farm. For people vacationing or travelling with horses, we have stalls and paddocks available and plenty of sand arenas and trails to ride in. Key features of the property are definitely the livestock, horses, a beautiful swimming or fishing hole at the corner of the property tons of walking or biking trails, a beach volleyball court, huge bbq pit, firepit area complete with seating, bbq capable of roasting whole hogs if you're planning a party event or gathering. With 100, very accessible acres, so many things to do, to learn about free range farming, and country life, we're sure you will find a beautiful location to enjoy nature on our farm, and lots of fun for the kids.

Nous avons reçu de très bonnes indications très détaillées pour nous rendre au site. Le terrain est grand avec une belle vue sur la mer. Il y a même des chaises et un jeu de "washer" disponible sur le terrain. L'endroit est bien situé (à mi-chemin entre Lunenburg et Peggy's Cove).

Pearl House Farm is the most beautiful place to camp. Everything is just perfect. We camped overlooking the meadows and forest. Coming from Belgium, we experienced stillness like never before. Our children loved the animals on the farm and the fact that they could really interact with them. And as cherry on the cake Zackary and Laura are adorable hosts. They contribute to the relaxing vibe of pearl house farm because of their open and warm personalities. We just loved it!!!
