Welcome to The Waring House

The Waring House invites you to experience genuine country inn hospitality, and everything Prince Edward County has to offer;  great local wine, artists and artisans, history, fabulous beaches, breathtaking scenery, delicious dining options, and so much more.

 

 

 

The Waring House is furnished and decorated to reflect its 19th-century origins. This fine old limestone home was built in 1860 for Thomas Waring. His father, Joshua Waring, had emigrated from Ireland before 1820 and had purchased the 200-acre farm, on which the house stands. Oral tradition says that the stone mason who built the home was also native to Ireland - one Hugh Smith from Portaferry in County Down.

For those who enjoy a more modern aesthetic, our premium rooms and suites, found in the Quaker and Heritage Lodges, are a luxurious blend of modern comfort and classic charm.

The Waring House is proud to be an environmentally conscious property. Read more on our Green Features pages.
