About 7.5 hrs b/t Keltic & Digby.
Do you have the NS Dept. of Tourism Travel guide, "Doers' & Dreamers'"? Included is a map of NS w/ directions & driving times. If you do not have it, you can order it online @ www.novascotia.com
If you can tell me how long you want to drive, I can suggest an in-between place. How are you getting to Keltic? Flying to Sydney? Halifax?

Thank you for your response. I have the guide and have planned the itinerary. I have studied the map between the Keltic Lodge and Digby. I think 3-4 hrs of driving would be enough. We will be traveling with two children and do not want a B&B. We considered the Pictou Lodge, but frankly weren't impressed and the posts have not been very favorable. Would you recommned Truro?

Pictou has a wide variety of accommodations to suit you. I would recommend any of the following:
Bonniebrae B&B
Braeside Inn
Seabank Suites
Willow House Inn
The Consultate Inn (have cottages too)
Evening Sail (have suites)
Pictou Lodge is a lovely spot to stay. The food is quite good and the location is spectacular. The others I have mentioned are in the Town of Pictou which is quite picturesque. While in Pictou, stroll the waterfront. Stop into Carvers (a woodcarving studio/coffeeshop/pub). Lots of shops to browse! There may be entertainment at the deCoste Centre.
Stonehame Chalets is a great spot as well, more isolated.
