About Bristol, QC

Bristol's a quiet Pontiac municipality along the Ottawa River, about 90 minutes northwest of Ottawa via Highway 148. Shawville, just 12 km up the road, is the go-to spot for groceries and errands, while folks here regularly cross into Ontario through Renfrew or Arnprior for work or shopping. EV charging is thin on the ground locally, so top up in Shawville or Renfrew before heading out. Founded back in 1855, Bristol still carries its village roots, with a long stretch of riverfront that's shaped farming and fishing here for well over a century.
