Fairmont is gorgeous and centrally located BUT we stayed at a gite on the St Lawrence River, just outside the city limits...ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! Five years later, our kids STILL reminisce about the accommodations! They had a pool, a very sweet dog, and chickens! The breakfast was wonderful and the owner encouraged the children to help collect the eggs in the AM! I'll see if I can find it. We are heading to the UK in July and all three kids want to stay in B&B's in the hopes that they'll all be like this gite...this place was quite special for them.
Found it! Gite Un Air D'ete!
