We enjoyed our time with 1840 b&b.
We were to attend a family wedding in the area and we can highly recommend the town of Merrickville as a destination for a very special occasion.
The hospitality, location and walkability, plus the excellent quality of the area for a relaxing and comfortable getaway will encourage you to return again and feel your life is as you deserve it to be.
