Beautifully situated at the heart of one of Ontario’s
loveliest rural areas, the Waring House has stood sentinel at
Waring’s Corners since about 1860. Today, the inn offers the
discriminating traveler an opportunity to taste the hospitality
and charm of an elegant Ontario home of that bygone era.
Meticulously restored and renovated, the inn offers seventeen
charming antique-appointed guest rooms. An additional 32 rooms
will be completed in November of 2008. Amelia’s Garden dining
room and the congenial Barley Room serve exceptional regional
cuisine. A hands-on, recreational Cookery School, elegant
Banquet/Conference Hall and lovely park-like setting make The
Waring House an all-season destination. Spa facilities are
available at the nearby affiliated Claramount Inn & Spa. Please visit our web site at

family and group travel. Desks with Internet access, flat-screen

 The
Waring House offers a seasonally changing menu in its Amelia’s
Garden and Prince Edward Room. The cuisine features many of the
wonderful foods produced and harvested locally in the County.
Executive Chef Luis de Sousa creates an exciting array of dishes
that demonstrate the originality and variety of Canadian
regional cuisine, and the in-house Pastry Chef produces a
selection of delectable desserts and pastries on-site. Special
food requests due to allergies, vegetarian preferences, and
dietary requirements can be accommodated, especially by prior
arrangement. Guests may also enjoy casual fare all day in the
Barley Room (where there is live entertainment Wednesday through
Sunday evenings) and are invited to choose from a fine selection
of local and imported wines by the glass, locally crafted beer
and cider, and single malt Scotch.

 One
of the most important goals at the Waring House is to ensure
that guests thoroughly enjoy their visit to Prince Edward
County. There’s always a lot happening at the inn and in the
County in general. On-site, there are hands-on, recreational
cookery classes, and gourmet five-course wine-tasting dinners.
There’s also live entertainment in the Barley Room Wednesday
through Sunday year-round. Guests can book a three and a half
hour guided tour of local vineyards, great for both casual wine
drinkers as well as those who would call themselves wine
connoisseurs. Many visitors will wish to partake in simple
pleasures such as a vigorous walk down the Prince Edward County
Millennium Trail that passes directly behind the inn, a casual
stroll through the gardens, a game of bocce ball, horseshoes,
croquet or badminton.
