Neighbourhood highlights

Welcome to Stone Mill Retreat!

Our wonderfully renovated 1860 townhome was once an historic, grist mill perfectly situated within walking distance to all that historic Fergus/Elora has to offer directly on St. Andrew Street West, in Fergus and minutes to Elora.

Listen carefully to the bagpipes played in downtown, stroll on the local area Gorge Trails or tube lazily down the Grand River, browse our boutique shops and then settle for a great dinner across the street at the Breadalbane Scottish Pub or Scozia Italian restaurant a few steps from your door.

Look forward to our Sottish Festival & Highland Games held in August.
Join the infamous RiverFest Music weekend held in Elora or join the Sensational Elora for events throughout the year, including Monster Month in October, and the many fabulous restaurants in our area to add to your adventure!

Whether travelling for a special occasion, simply for work, perhaps a new exploring adventure, or a new culinary experience, or to enjoy our many festivals, step into your getaway with the warmth from century stone at Stone Mill Retreat!
