Cabot Links
Located along the beautiful coastline of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Cabot Links is another on an ever-growing list of incredible Canadian golf destinations and should be on every golfer’s bucket list.
Featuring 36 holes of links-style championship golf designed by the likes of Bill Coore, Ben Crenshaw, and Rod Whitman, 72 award-winning guest rooms at the Cabot Links Lodge (all with floor-to-ceiling golf course and ocean views), 19 deluxe golf villas, three on-site restaurants, and more than a mile of sandy beachfront, Cabot Links offers everything your group needs for a luxury golf getaway.
Designed by Nova Scotia architect Susan Fitzgerald and interior designer Alexandra Angle who used the natural surroundings as their inspiration, the Lodge utilizes local cedar and timber in a classic yet modern blend. Resort accommodations include complimentary WiFi, 46” flat-screen TV’s, iHome Alarm Clock/Docking Stations, a selection of the latest golf publications, refrigerated mini-bars, and Nespresso Machines.
Incredible Dining And Recreational Activities
Outside your door, if you can pull yourself away from the golf courses, you will find an incredible array of activities including beaches, hiking, biking, fishing, music venues, whale watching, markets, kayaking, and the nearby Glenora Distillery.
Dining options include the formal Panorama Restaurant which serves breakfast and dinner overlooking the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the 18th hole of Cabot Links. Using locally-sourced ingredients, dishes here include baked oysters, crab cakes, grilled monkfish, lobster, strip steak, and pan-seared halibut. Offering an all-day menu, the more casual Cabot Bar is a great spot for pre- or post-round drinks and a meal while the Cabot Public House is your go-to spot for live music, great drinks, and delicious food, including their Cape Breton Lobster Boil.
