Feel free to contact me at anytime during your stay, my wife Jocelyne and I will be happy to help. The ByWard Market is a vibrant area with many great shops, seasonal patios, and restaurants. Local fruit and vegetable vendors set up all summer long, and during the winter season, skate down the Rideau Canal, the world's largest skating rink. There is a bus stop right around the corner, servicing local bus lines. Two of the major Public Transportation hubs, Rideau Street and Mackenzie King are less than a 10 minute walk away. The scenic cycling path is accessible from Major's Hill Park, a 5 minute walk away. Parking lots are available at all four corners of our location.
