Great Exchange
Paula and Paula were very thoughtful and considerate hosts and had done everything to ensure that we had a pleasant stay in their beautiful home. Communication was excellent and we enjoyed meeting them and being shown around the house and area at the start of the holiday. The house is in an extremely quiet and private little road, yet the main road with bus stops into the centre of the city is only a few minutes walk away. Also close by is a large area of green, with lake, canal, footpaths and arboretum. We felt we had the best of both worlds, really easy access into the centre of the lovely city of Ottawa with all it's superb museums and art gallery, as well as super walks in what felt like countryside. Thank you Paula and Paul.
