Uniacke Estate was the country property of Attorney-General Richard John Uniacke. The house, built 1813-15, with its original furnishings is one of Canada's finest examples of a grand country house in the Georgian tradition. The estate offers visitors a vivid glimpse of 19th-century life among Nova Scotia's gentry.

You can visit the house from June 1 to October 15. A tea room in the basement kitchen is open everyday from early June to Labour Day, and on weekends in September and October. At anytime of year you can visit the property and walk the 6 trails that were created in 1995....
