Nova Scotia Travel Guide - Accommodation

Nova Scotia offers a wide range of accommodation and campsites. Advance reservations are recommended, especially during the summer. All establishments are inspected and recommended by Tourism Nova Scotia. Farmhouse holidays are possible and many Nova Scotians provide bed & breakfast for visitors in the tourist season (late April to November). 

Grading: The national Canada Select Ratings Programme (see Accommodation Information, below) operates in Nova Scotia, rating accommodation from 1 to 5 stars on a voluntary basis.

Much of Nova Scotia is luxuriant parkland, and one of the best ways to see the province is by motorhome (called recreational vehicles, or RVs, in Canada) or camper; a number of companies can arrange hire, with a range of fully equipped vehicles. Full details can be obtained from Tourism Nova Scotia (see Contact Addresses), which also publishes a comprehensive guide to the province. The national Camping Select Ratings Programme rates campgrounds from 1 to 5 stars.
