Hi,

We have our permanent resident visas and are planning to spend a week in May in the Halifax / Eastern Shore region as we want to find a house to rent, sort out bank accounts etc. We then plan to return permanently to live in the Eastern Shore area 2 weeks after our trip.

Does any one know of any cheap accommodation to stay in for a week in either the Halifax or Eastern Shore region? We don't mind basic, as it will be just myself and my wife coming out for a week.

Many Thanks

John

We used this website to find cottages to rent when we went on our first recce this year:

http://www.cottagelink.com/cottlink/...tia/lns1.shtml

A variety of prices, and all over NS, but worth having a browse.

there is also this site:
http://www.stayinnovascotia.com/properties/

and this one:

and www.cottagesincanada.com just make sure they are winterised!

If you fancy B&B you could try these 2

Thanks for your suggestions will certainly have a look at the links.

Hi There

Could not recommend the seaboard B&B at lawrencetown highly enough> the owners Iris and harland are fantastic hosts and rates are great.
We stayed there on both our recces and it was ideal.

I would recommend the cottage we are staying in now, but fear we will still be in it when you are due to come over!

Good luck with finding somewhere and if you fancy a drink/chat when you come over, let us Eastern Shore residents know!

Good plan on the drink, chat Amy.your house looks like it is coming along.it will be a new place by the time you have finished.hope you are in for xmas.

Thanks - though it looks like mid February now until we are back - and I am not even convinced it will be done by then!!
