he Devonshire Inn — a charming Victorian country house in a breathtaking waterfront location. Initially built as the Wellington Foundry in the 1800's, the building underwent a dramatic transformation in the 1890's to become one of the premier houses in this quiet lakeside town. Now, an intimate country inn and restaurant, the Devonshire combines respect for the past with all the modern comforts you'll need to make your stay memorable.

The Devonshire is situated on two acres of park like grounds, bordered by Lake Ontario to the south and a spring fed stream to the west. The beach is pebbly, and a great spot for an early morning cup of coffee or a quick dip. We have three large lounges (two with fireplaces) and a spectacular deck for guest use.

Guests can choose from the following rooms:

Lane Creek Blue — Queen sized bed, private bath (regular sized tub has Jacuzzi jets,), view of the lake and stream, main floor. This is one of the closest rooms to Lake Ontario in Prince Edward County.

Woodland — Queen sized bed, private bath with air jet hydra tub and shower, main floor. A little larger that the Blue Room described above, with a similar view.

Lane Creek Waterfall — Our newest and most elegant room. Queen sized bed, private bath with 6 foot air jet Jacuzzi, private balcony, and a lovely waterfall right outside the window.

Niles Room — Queen sized bed, twin brass bed, private bath, two large, stained glass windows, main floor. This is a fairly large room.

Old Master Bedroom —Queen sized bed, large bathroom with shower stall and clawfoot tub. A nice view of the stream, second floor.

Rose Room — Queen bed, twin daybed, private bath with shower, lovely old stained glass windows, quite roomy.

Sandbanks Suite — Two rooms with a shared bath on the third floor, one room with a queen bed and one with two twins. Skylights and sloped ceilings make for a romantic retreat.

Wellington, found in Prince Edward County, is one of the best kept travel destination secrets in Ontario. Along with the rich history of the original Loyalist settlers, you'll find great beaches at Sandbanks Provincial Park (noted as the largest sand dune system in North America), wonderful food, antiques and galleries galore, bird watching, scuba diving, and world class fishing.
