Heritage Retreat on the Rideau Waterfront

The Rothwells' Stone Cottage B&B is situated 120 kms south of Ottawa and 70 kms north of Kingston in the town of Westport on the Rideau. This beautiful 1850's heritage treasure offers views of the Upper Rideau Lake and Foley Mountain.
Decorated in an elegant style that befits its heritage, the house is a blend of traditional and contemporary with two fireplaces, a lovely screened verandah facing the lake and formal living and dining rooms.
Guests are encouraged to enjoy the Upper Rideau, accessible from our backyard. One canoe and two kayaks are available.

The Stone Cottage takes care in preserving the Rideau's natural beauty. We are an eco-aware business; using biodegradable cleaners, cold wash, no pressing and conscientious use of A/C and lighting are just some of our initiatives. We would appreciate your support and cooperation.
