The Innkeepers

 

Gil and Esther consider themselves the accidental Innkeepers. Their desire to save a heritage home from demolition caused them to spend two and a half years at hard labour and resulted in them opening Esther & Gil DaresHarbour's Edge Bed and Breakfast in May of 1997.

n their other lives, Gil a retired Royal Canadian Mounted Police Officer with 35 years service, and Esther a Town Councillor, are both very community-minded. Married for 35 years, they have 3 children & 2 grandchildren. Originally from Nova Scotia, they had resided in New Brunswick and the Arctic for 10 years before moving back to their home Province. Gil and Esther are five time recipients of the Mayflower Award.

Operating a Bed and Breakfast has been a wonderful adventure and they have found that their guests arrive as strangers and leave as friends. They both look forward to making your visit to Yarmouth a rewarding experience.
