Additional details

The Coach House - Legend has it that John & YoKo spend two night here before starting their famous "Love-In" in 1969. (We cannot prove it, but it's a good story and we are sticking to it!). During the "Roaring Twenties" the main house was a well known "speak easy" and Ernest Hemingway, who wrote for the Toronto Star and lived up the street, was often seen enjoying a drink or three.
Our best private suite at the 1871 Historic House Bed & Breakfast. The Coach House is a separate edition from the main Victorian House, thus providing superior privacy and seclusion. It features hardwood floors with antique wicker pieces, a queen bed, two love seats, and private bathroom. It is centrally air-conditioned during the Toronto summers

The Red Room - Our most popular requested room in the main Victorian house. The Red Room features a queen bed, a love seat, stereo television, with shared bath.

The Blue Room - Situated in the main Victorian house, it features 2 twin beds, stereo television, with shared bath.
