Sunrise Cottage #1: 1-bedroom cabin with hot tub in Balmoral Mills

Escape to Field & Fern Cottages — a cozy, fully winterized tiny cottage for two, nestled beside a peaceful brook. This private retreat offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, featuring a comfortable queen bed, kitchenette, mini fridge, coffee bar, heat pump, BBQ, fire pit, hammock, and a covered veranda for relaxing outdoors in any weather. Guests also enjoy their own detached private washroom with a composting toilet and hot shower, plus access to the property’s year-round hot tub.

If you love the atmosphere of camping but prefer a real bed, heat, and hot showers, Field & Fern is for you. This tiny, one-room cottage delivers a true nature escape while keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer. Evenings are especially magical—sit by your private fire, listen to the brook, stargaze, curl up in the hammock, or unwind in the shared hot tub overlooking the river.

Wake to birdsong, sip your morning coffee on the veranda, and enjoy 15 fenced acres of open countryside—perfect for roaming, relaxing, and bringing your dog along (with pet fee). Outdoor adventurers will love nearby hiking, biking, skiing, snowmobiling, ATV trails, horseback riding, waterfalls, fishing, and beautiful waterways within walking distance.

We’re conveniently located just 12 minutes from Tatamagouche, where you’ll find beaches, Tatamagouche Brewery, restaurants, cafés, boutiques, groceries, NSLC, and more. Skiers will love being only 25 minutes from Ski Wentworth.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room is very comfy and organized, and the hot tub was incredible. The surrounding area is beautiful and adds a lot to the overall experience. The only thing is that I would've appreciated a more explicit heads up that the bathroom is outside the room. We didn't have any troubles with the facilities, but using the bathroom in the middle of the night during winter was a challenge. There is no Wi-Fi or cell signal at the cottage, but there are books and games to keep you entertained. The indoor space is small, but the outdoor space makes up for it. Getting to Wentworth Ski takes about 35 minutes driving under fair road conditions (worth knowing that Google Maps is only accessible on your way out of the property, where you'll catch a single bar of signal). This trip was great to slow down and reconnect, I would love to try again during a warmer season.
