Another $2 million from Ottawa for Cape Breton’s luxurious Cabot Links
INVERNESS, N.S. — Cape Breton’s famed Cabot Links golf resort has received a $2-million federal loan, bringing total government funding for the luxurious links to almost $17 million.
The interest-free “repayable contribution” will go towards spa facilities, upscale culinary services and tennis courts at Cabot Cliffs at Broad Cove, the sibling golf course to Cabot Links, the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency said Friday.
The latest loan will help the picturesque Inverness resort broaden its appeal for families, non-golfers and corporate groups, the agency said.
It’s also part of an effort to attract more visitors to the remote resort and bolster tourism in the province, it said.
