We came to Cape Breton as visitors 15 years ago, fell in love with the land and with the people, as you surely will too, and now it is home.

Gilbert Bordillon (1946-2008) came to Singing Pebbles from a lengthy and successful career in the hospitality industry as chef and international food and beverage consultant. He passed away suddenly in January of 2008. However, the energy and vision that he invested in the building of Singing Pebbles is still very much alive and continues in full vigor.
