Westover Inn may be Ontario's quintessential country inn, a steeply gabled stone mansion with elaborate gingerbread trim majestically set in park-like grounds of century-old trees. Westover Inn's appeal in the small meetings market is based on a combination of relaxed small-town atmosphere, attention paid to well-planned activities, and a convenient location midway between Toronto and Detroit/Windsor. Meeting guests appreciate that there is only one function hosted at Westover at a time, which gives each group full use of facilities and the undivided attention of all staff. 

This fine limestone mansion was built in 1867 as the home of local wheat magnates William and Joseph Hutton, was converted to a Roman Catholic seminary in the 1930s, and was renovated to welcome guests in 1987. The inn comprises the original Manor, with meeting room, lounge, dining room and six guest rooms; and the Terrace and Thames Cottage, each with guest rooms and suites.

  Dining Westover Inn  
   
Westover Inn has a loyal clientele, who agree with restaurant reviewer Ann Hardy when she says that the chefs here "..do all things right." This award-winning restaurant places importance on making everything on-site, from breads and jams to chocolate treats used at turn-down. This is also one of the first inns in Ontario to base their creative menu on carefully-sourced local ingredients. Corporate groups enjoy a full breakfast, a choice of buffet or mini a la cart luncheon and four-course dinners. There is no restricted corporate menu: groups enjoy the same seasonal menu served in the dining room.

  Regional Highlights Westover Inn  
   
Southwestern Ontario is fine daytripping country, with many picturesque villages to explore and quiet backroads for driving or cycling. Several villages have antique shops and art studios and the Westover can suggest touring routes for driving or cycling through villages such as Shakespeare. 

During summer, the Stratford Festival is an immensely popular group outing, while during winter, cross country skiing at Wildwood Conservation Area and inner tubing at River Valley are popular.
