Additional details

Our two guest rooms contain antiques from the 19th century. A sitting room with a mini-library blends the old with the new, including an antique typewriter collection and an internet connection to let guests keep in touch for either business or personal communication.

Our bath is something special; it contains the original cast-iron claw-foot tub that has been completely re-glazed. It allows our visitors to soak away the rigors of shopping or sightseeing. The entire home is air-conditioned for your comfort, but windows do open for fresh air, too.

Gourmet Breakfasts at your Toronto Bed and Breakfast - Our tempting breakfasts will call you to the dining room with the succulent aromas of gourmet ground coffees, herbal teas or oven baked Irish soda bread. Seasonal menus consist of Ontario grown sweet strawberry crepes, orange-lemon croissant souffles, pea meal bacon (a Canadian specialty), Johnnycake with pure maple syrup or a Cottage favorite plump blueberry buttermilk pancakes. An array of healthy and organic fruit cups are de rigor at the Cottage, too. Requests including food allergies or dietary needs are also taken into consideration.

Your Toronto bed and breakfast hosts include a retired television journalist who has an intimate knowledge of Toronto with the expertise to make your visit a very special one! Whether you are visiting Toronto for the culture, theatre, shopping or special events, we can make you feel at home with Toronto insider tips. We feel the best part of operating a Toronto Bed and Breakfast is "serving our guests".
