Where to stay in Ontario Countryside

Langdon Hall
Cambridge, Ontario
No weight limit is published — dogs stay only in designated terrace-level Cloister rooms, on a $50 per-pet fee, and are excluded from the spa, pool, fitness centre and every dining area. Whether that reaches the outdoor tables is unstated, so confirm directly.

North Hatley, Quebec
Dogs stay in the detached cottages, not the main house, and Le Hatley is closed to them — though a property representative says the Tap Room's lower terrace is not. The hotel publishes no pet policy at all, and the listings that carry one disagree on the fee and on whether a dog can be left alone.
