Things to Do Near Bates Barn

You're bringing people to Belleisle Bay for your event, and you want them to enjoy the whole weekend, not just the part with you in it.

​

Bates Barn sits on Belleisle Bay in Long Point, NB, with a roadside market and a beach close by. Golf and paddling are a short drive away.

Free Hours Go Better With Somewhere to Go

You want a weekend where everyone can relax and enjoy themselves. Out-of-town guests with a free afternoon and nowhere to go tend to spend it in a hotel room. Give them a beach and a farm market, and that afternoon becomes the part of the weekend they talk about later.

​

We know this area well, so we've sorted everything by how far you'll drive.
