Out and About in Niagara-on-the-Lake

So the holidays bring more opportunity to travel. During our break my wife and I took some time in Niagara-on-the-Lake. While in the quaint village we choose to stay at the Bruce Manor Bed & Breakfast. We found the property on Rent-My-Escape.com which has been a really great site for finding accomodations in Ontario.

I hope that I don't get in trouble for this one but their description from the Rent-My-Escape.com site is as follows.

Bruce Manor is a Bed & Breakfast which offers accommodation in a quiet setting in the heart of Niagara-on-the-Lake within easy walking distance of all theatres, shops, The Shaw Festival, Fort George, Niagara Historical Museum, tennis courts, swimming pool and the scenic Niagara River pathway for hiking, biking and roller blading. Located adjacent to the beautiful Bruce Trail, Bruce Manor exudes ambience and privacy offering large, pet-free, smoke-free, air conditioned rooms with private entrances, ensuites, lounging areas, kitchenettes and balcony overlooking the gardens and pool.

Breakfasts include fresh seasonal fruits, delicious hot entrees, oven-fresh home baking and out homemade jams and jellies.

At Bruce Manor enjoy breakfast in the privacy of your own suite, in the dining room or poolside against the natural wooded backdrop of the Bruce Trail.

A delightful short walk will find you at the Shaw Festival Theatres. in the unique shopping and hospitality of Queen Street or the quaint fasicination of our more than 200 year old town. ( Find for photos see: http://www.rentmyescape.com their property id is 1244 )

The Inn Keepers were very pleasent and were able to give us some of the best recommendations of places to eat and visit. Diner at the Pillar and Post was second to none. But bring your credit card.

They also helped with my wife's candy addiction by pointing us towards a little shop called the Candy Safari.... Good thing I don't like sweets to much other wise we would have spent the night there instead.

Only 10 minutes away you will find Niagara Falls and the Casino's of Niagara. Be sure to visit Fallsview Casino Resort. From what I am told in compares well to anything in Las Vegas. The place is amazing and we sure had alot of fun.
