Comfortable and Historical
The Breadalbane Inn is lovely, and I would definitely recommend it. We stayed in the main inn, which was both comfortable and elegant with interesting antiques and architecture. Fergus, and nearby Elora, are charming, as well as close proximity to farmer's markets, waterfalls, etc.
If possible, I would give it a rating of 4.5 stars due to a few puzzling cost-saving choices.
* Pleasingly, the room had a tray with an assortment of glassware and a decanter of water. The water, however, tasted strongly of chlorine. Why provide a decanter that contains tap water?! All of the other inns we visited had spring water, or at least water treated by reverse osmosis. If not offering pleasant water, simply leave the decanter empty.
* The inn prides itself on it's food. We ordered the pork schnitzel and mushroom bianco pizza. The schnitzel was HUGE, but was served with a tiny amount of Jager sauce (a thimble in comparison to the schnitzel). A wedge of lemon would have been a welcome addition. Similarly, the presence of fresh ground pepper would have greatly elevated the pizza. Small things that would make a nice meal truly remarkable.
