How to get there

A common way to come to PEI via New Brunswick is to take the Confederation Bridge and drive over the Northumberland Strait. The drive across the bridge takes about 10-12 minutes. (You pay when you leave PEI - not on the way to PEI).

1. When you come off the Confederation Bridge you will be in the town of Borden- Carleton and you will pick up the Trans Canada Highway there. Follow the signs to Charlottetown and then to St. Peter's Bay/Greenwich.

There are a couple of options to reach the St. Peter's Highway which you take to travel East to Greenwich. ( I will explain more after booking). You stay on this road until you reach a stop sign in St. Peter's Bay (you will be facing the visitor information center). Turn left at the small causeway/bridge. Stay to the left and go up the small hill. Take your first left onto the Greenwich Rd (313) and you will see the large white Roman Catholic church on the right. Continue on the Greenwich Rd approx 5 km then turn right at the lane for Greenwich Moonlight Bay Cottage & also Lin's Take Out.Our civic number is 961. Proceed up the lane and turn onto the first clay lane to the cottage (white with yellow shutters). A white century farm home will be on the left of our cottage and a field will be in front of us.

2. If you come from Nova Scotia you can come via the Confederation Bridge or you might decide to "take the ferry"! Northumberland Ferries cross from NS to PEI several months of the year. Once on PEI you arrive in Wood Islands which is in Eastern PEI and it is an easy and pretty drive to Greenwich. If you decide to come via ferry we will give you detailed directions depending on which route you would like to take to get here from the ferrry...the longer coastal route or more direct route.

3. If you are flying to PEI you will fly into the Charlottetown airport. It is easy to get to the St. Peter's Highway from there and then you follow the directions in #1 above, It is an easy 40-45 min drive to the cottage.

Driving directions are on our website and I can send you the one you require as it gets closer to your arrival.
