Default Hotels Booked either end of the Hol

Hi all,
well that's the Holiday Express Inn @ Bedford booked for the first 3 nights and the Westin Halifax for the last 3 sorted , now have to work out were to go for the middle bit .
Any suggestions will be greatly received,there are 4 in our party me and the wife then our children, Lewis 12 years and Mhairi 15 years.
We are coming over on the 5th Of August for 2 weeks and have arranged our meet up with Margot in Colchester RDA to go down the CI route ,fingers crossed.
If you guys have any info or recommendation,s on resorts in NS and NB that have activities geared for families then give us a bell,have been looking at White Point Beach Resort, any views ?

Hi Arty,

Dont know if you're going to explore the North Shore (Annapolis), we stayed in http://www.mountaintopcottages.com/site/, and found them to be fantastic, and close to attractions.
Good luck with the trip
I'll try the Canadian Affair car rentals

If you're looking at spending some time in Truro then Royalty B&B on Prince St - 3 blocks down from CoRDA comes with high recommendations. We recently spent 5 days there, really really lovely. Sherry & Les are great hosts, you will not be disdisappointed
www.royaltybandb.ca

Good luck with your plans. Give us a shout if you need any info - our CI pack goes off today (I'm patiently waiting for the courier, c'mon )

beautiful spot between Windsor & Chester, cabins are lovely, loads for the family to do if you are outdoorsy.

If you have a day or so and want to have fun there is a resort just past Chester that has cabins that sleep 6, on the coast all amenities ie fire pit BBQ kitchen etc its a bit steep $150 a night but might be a good experience for the kids for a night or two the resort is called OAK Island you can find it on google, but it would be a good place to roam around Chester or Lunenburgh

If you need local info about schools houses etc we are easy to talk to just PM me and we can give you a call.

Hi Barrett,

The place looks fantastic just a pity the closest i have been to a uniform is the scouts
