The house is located in Aylmer, a bilingual (French-English) quiet family-oriented neighborhood about 15 minutes (15 km) of downtown Ottawa, Canada’s national capital. A few meters from the house runs the Ottawa River where you can swim, sail and canoe. A few kilometers from home, Gatineau Park offers 350 square kilometers of great outdoor activities (swimming, hiking, biking, canoeing and camping). The real Canadian outdoor life!
You will find grocery stores, restaurants, a marina, many golf courses and a beautiful beach at a walking or cycling distance from the house. There are also plenty of wonderful cycling paths in the area. Actually, a bike path runs a few meters from our house. The region is also known to be a paradise for golfers. Check out more information about Ottawa at: www.capcan.ca
Since Ottawa is Canada's capital, it offers many historic and cultural attractions. See the National Gallery, National Arts Centre, Canadian Museum of Civilisation, Parliament Hill, Byward Market,.... Historic Rideau Canal flows right through the centre of the city. Ottawa is the focal point for many summer festivals, concerts and family activities.
By car, you can be in Montreal in 2 hrs, Quebec city in 4.5 hrs, Toronto in 5 hrs and to the U.S. border in 1.5 hr.
