Dinner Menu

What’s in a name?

The name of the hotel was first suggested by the architect for this hotel project as he surveyed the site and commented on the beautiful old

orchard growing on the lower slopes. The orchard remained, as did the name, in a tribute to the apple industry of the Annapolis Valley.

Welcome

Old Orchard Inn

Our History

Old Orchard Inn truly is a landmark property in the Annapolis Valley. The hotel sits nestled in one of the many beautiful apple orchards of Greenwich, crowning the hill overlooking rolling landscapes of Cape Blomidon, and the Minas Basin. The Inn’s location, within an hour of Halifax and close to major transportation routes, makes it a natural choice for a family vacation, meetings, conventions and events. The Old Orchard Inn was completed in August 1972 and it has undergone major expansions over the years. It now features 101 deluxe guestrooms, 29 cabins (seasonal), an indoor pool and sauna, the Acadian Dining Room, Eau Spa, Rafters Barn for private events, and of course, the multi-functional conference centre that can accommodate groups of up to 600, Orchard Hall (opened June 2000), offering the finest and most up-to-date facilities in the province.

The ‘stone’ that features so prominently in the lobby, large open fireplace and other public areas, was quarried in White Rock in nearby Gaspereau Valley. Massive hand-hewn beams were gathered from several old barns in the area for use in the construction and antiques were collected to preserve local history while adding greatly to the rustic charm of the property. In the end, the result was a warm and welcoming atmosphere for all guests, from family groups to business travelers.

The Wallace family, who have owned and operated this facility since its inception, welcome you, our guests.
