Lodging in Montreal: Petite Auberge Les Bons Matins, Where the Mornings Are Wonderful!
When
Harold Cote decided to name his Montreal bed and breakfast "Petite Auberge
Les Bons Matins," he really had the right idea. No doubt about it because

and romance...

Auberge Handfield,
an aging boarding house-turned-country inn in the bucolic garden region of Monteregie,
may be just a bridge away from Montreal. But for me the drive represented more
than a mere hour or so excursion from cosmopolitan Montreal to the quaint Quebec
countryside village of
St. Marc-sur-Richelieu...
