Our
3
bedroom Cozy
Cottage
is located in the village of Northport, Nova Scotia, along scenic route
366 of the Northumberland Strait, approximately 45 kms from
Amherst.
Amherst
is the first Nova Scotia town you'll encounter heading east
on the Trans-Canada highway upon entering Nova Scotia. Amherst is the
terminus
for both Route 6 (to the north) and Route 2 (to the south). It's about
40 minutes east of Moncton, and a stop on the VIA Rail (tel.
800/561-3949
in the U.S., or 888/842-7245 in Canada) train between Montreal and
Halifax.
Our
three bedroom cottage is
available for rent during June,
July, August
and September, and is booked on a weekly basis: Sunday to Sunday. Our
cottage is not wheel chair accessible!

Visitor
Information
The
huge Nova
Scotia Visitor Information Center (tel. 902-667-8429)
is on Amherst's western edge, just off Exit 1 of the Trans-Canada
Highway.
In addition to the usual vast library of brochures and pamphlets,
there's
an ice-cream stand, videos, helpful staff in uniforms, extraordinary
views
across the usually windy marsh, and often a bagpiper providing the
appropriate
mood out in front. It's open from May to the end of October. During
peak
season it's open 8 am to 9pm; limited hours during the colder seasons.
A portion of the center includes washrooms, vending machines, and
phones
and is open 24 hours a day in summer.
Just
east of the
provincial visitor center is the Amherst
Visitor
Information Center (tel. 902-667-0696), housed in a
handsome
1905 rail car. It's a good bet for more detailed information on
activities
in the immediate area. It's open late May to early September daily from
10 am to 6pm.
