the Bard and Breakfast, Stratford, ON

Open year-round, the Bard and Breakfast is located a pleasant ten minute walk from the world famous Stratford Shakespeare Festival Theatre. The Avon, Studio or Patterson theatres are a five minute drive.
For over 60 years, the house has been in the Forrest family. Initially a private home filled with love and great memories, hosts Elizabeth and Al completely renovated the structure in 2002. The main floor guest section of the Bard and Breakfast is the original home constructed early in the last century.
