The Woodlawn Inn is mentioned in today's National Post newspaper

Spring! It's spring! At last! Which means our thoughts have swerved a full 180-degrees to images of love - and not only love, but lust, too, of the wandering kind. Last week we contacted Weekend Post's regular roster of travel mavens for their counsel on where we should go for a three-or four-day getaway. This week we present a variety of trips to Ontario and Quebec. In the weeks that follow we'll feature brief interludes from other Canadian destinations.

If you like a town that has kept its yesterday, isn't tarted up by nouveau pretension, has a sparkling beach a minute's walk from one of Ontario's most beautiful buildings and doesn't give you three days' jet lag when you get back home, I have a suggestion: Cobourg, a pleasant drive east of Toronto, where I spent a few days a while back, walking streets with houses that are part of a jewelled past, when the town - its heyday was in the late 1800s - was so popular that many rich Americans built summer mansions here.

Some still stand, most near the intersection of Division and King. But the most eye-appealing legacy is a building that some years ago was within a heartbeat of the wrecking ball. It's Victoria Hall, opened by the Prince of Wales in 1860. Town council meets there in a magnificent old court room, there's a concert hall and art gallery, but just standing outside and looking up calms the spirit. It's just a stroll from Woodlawn Inn where I stayed, run by the Della Casa family with culinary quality and inn-keeping charm. There's more: In Cobourg you're within minutes by car from Port Hope, so consider a visit to its restored 1930s theatre where, among upcoming productions is nostalgic Queens of Country Music, with renditions of Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton.
