Description

The Meiklejohn House was built in the 1870’s as a stately Victorian home by Alexander Meiklejohn who became the first mayor of Harriston. It has many unique features including a wall which recesses into the ceiling to make the parlour into one large room. There are eight fireplaces in the house, four of which are made of Italian marble.

A former greenhouse or Conservatory is now a warm and cozy place to relax and enjoy a cup of tea or to have your breakfast. A second floor sunroom also lends itself to relaxation. Several outdoor verandahs invite you to sit with a good book or spend time with friends. The 8 person spa/hot tub will help you settle in for a good nights sleep in one of the four bedrooms decorated for your comfort.
 
A delicious full country breakfast will be served at 8:30 am or earlier upon request and it can be enjoyed in the formal dining room, Conservatory or out on the patio.
We have central air during the hot summer months to enhance your stay.

Great location


Our overnight stay at Meiklejohn House was such a pleasure. The house is just as it appears on the website and our hosts get top marks for their hospitality. The breakfast was exceptional and enough to last almost to supper. We highly recommend this B&B and would stay there again in the future should an occassion arise in that area.

The house is beautiful and spacious


Stayed here in November 2009 and loved it! The house is beautiful and spacious, and the owners did everything to make us feel welcome. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast the next morning was expansive and delicious. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this place to anyone!
