Daytrip to Tyne Valley
The Tyne Valley is just a 25-minute drive from Mill River Resort and so worth the trip. This once-bustling village overlooks the scenic Trout River and is peppered with heritage homes and quaint island scenery.
Time your visit right and this wee hamlet explodes during the annual Tyne Valley Oyster Festival complete with shucking competitions, live events, culinary experiences, music festival and more!
Missed the festival? Catch the flavour of the festivities at Valley Pearl Oyster Co. Where Jeff Noye and his team have cultivated a dinner theatre and restaurant serving oysters, beer, brisket, and other smokey and savoury delights.

Stop by Tyne Valley Teas for Tarot Reading, Tea Leaf Readings, book a Fancy Afternoon Tea Party, or indulge in decadent treats, nutritious lunch items, and an oh-so-essential proper cup of tea or coffee. The building itself is an historical gem, which has been brilliantly restored and converted to welcome guests throughout the summer season.

A crisp pint from the rotating taps at Moth Lane Brewery is waiting for you down a rambling red dirt road to this most unique craft brewery. Weekly trivia in the loft and windows overlooking the wistful sand island just off the shore are almost as refreshing as the brews. Stop by this iconic spot in Ellerslie on your way back to Mill River Resort where you’ll rest and reset for your next day’s adventure.
