Idlewyld Inn began its life as one of London's premier private residences, reflecting the wealth and good taste of the prosperous Victorians who built it. They designed their home to reflect their desire for comfort and luxury amid the soothing warmth of muted colours, glistening woods and highly-polished brass. Idlewyld Inn preserves these traditions and offers the visitor the opportunity to slip into a more gracious era, the relaxing magic of another time and place, yet one where every modern amenity is at your fingertips.

There's a very special aura of romance that envelops you as you enter our beautiful foyer, and the pampered service that awaits you will meet your every expectation. For a weekend escape or just an overnight holiday from the cares of the world, Idlewyld Inn is waiting especially for you.

Our elegant dining room harkens back to a time when Idlewyld Mansion was the centrepiece of London's 19th century social life, and our talented chefs grace its tables with only the finest locally-grown products to produce a cuisine worthy of the most discriminating palates.

Though Idlewyld Inn is very easy to find, nestled in a quiet residential neighbourhood, it is still just minutes from both the 401 and downtown London
