Bed & Breakfast Morton House Inn (Milton, Canada)

About Morton House Inn

Our B&B rooms include breakfast. Motel units do not. The Morton House "Empire Style" mansion was completed in 1864 by master builder John Wyman, of Boston, for it's owners John and Georgiana Morton. This historic property continues to be a landmark in the Queens County area. The Morton family gained its wealth and prestige in the lumber, ship building and shipping and the mercantile business in the early 1800's. John's father, Sylvanus (1805-87) was an astute businesssman who was, at one time, the president of the Bank of Liverpool. He was also a politician and an ardent political reformer who sat in the Legislature Assembly in Nova Scotia (1860-63) as the elected member from Queens County. We are located in Milton on the beautiful Mersey River, about 3 kilometers from Liverpool. Your hosts, who became the owners in December, 2005, have lovingly restored the property to reflect the 1800's atmosphere and appeal. The legendary skylight that illuminates both the 1st and 2nd floor hallways of the Inn, of course, remains. Beautiful antiques and furnishings, that reflect the 19th century, are evident throughout the Inn - all blended with convenience and comfort of 21st century living.
