A lovely traditional property run by a couple who were eager to make our stay comfortable. The only downside was traffic noise from the main road.

Paul is very gentle and he served us a breakfast made with great care. You can see the diligent attention in the details of the installation - in the room, in the bathroom and breakfast area. Even though our room was downstairs, we could notice his caution not to make noise to us when we walked upstairs. We will definitely come back if visiting the region again. ;)

We were first greeted by the owners dogs that would not stop barking and stunk. Then we were kicked out at 10:45 am when our booking clearly stated noon to be the check-out time. They claimed 11 am was the check out time. The owner claimed this as he opened our door after hardly knocking. This led him to seeing us (his guests) not fuĺly clothed. Terrible experience staying here.

Wonderful BnB with traditional hospitality.

Dominique and Paul are great hosts, as one would expect from people with years of experience in the hospitality industry. Staying with them is reminiscent of visiting a distant relative. They are attentive, polite and helpful without being intrusive. Guests will appreciate the small things, such as the deluxe soap, abundant towels, complimentary bottled water, well decorated rooms and pride that their century home exudes. And, to top it off, they have a select menu of thoughtfully prepared food available. I was quite pleased with the Portuguese-style breakfast and fantastic espresso provided for a reasonable sum. Leamington also offers an atmospheric downtown (I did visit on a Friday night) as well as a beach and waterfront park well worth exploring. Whether you are passing through or using it as a base to explore the region, this is an excellent choice.

My 2 stays were awesome - hope to be back!

I am a birder and it has been years since I have stayed at a Bed and Breakfast; if you’re up early and out until late, you miss the amenities… But I enjoyed my first night so much that I booked another night on my return trip back to the Toronto Airport when they had a cancellation. Pricing is very reasonable, too. Dominique and Paul are top-notch, gracious hosts and awesome Canadians that did many small things to enhance my travels. They offered to ready my room earlier when I was getting off a red-eye flight. I enjoyed Dutch pancakes and fresh fruit (and the much-needed coffee!). And I tried my first Portuguese beer! The rooms are cozy and they offer amenities, like slippers to walk around in (shoes and socks get sandy at Point Pelee) and a much-appreciated tissue pack. The rooms are very comfortable and there are silk sheets on the bed! They also contribute to support the community with a community pantry outside to support migrant workers, some of whom I met and are very nice people. Best wishes to Dominique in her new business adventures!

We truly enjoyed our stay. Although it was only for one night, the experience was wonderful. The space was cozy, comfortable, and surrounded by beautiful, tranquil outdoor scenery — the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee and conversation. The host was welcoming, approachable, and genuinely interested in connecting with us. He even made coffee for both my wife and me, preparing her a beautiful cappuccino, which was such a thoughtful touch. The amenities exceeded our expectations. They provided many extras, such as earplugs (though we didn’t need them, they could be useful), toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, bathrobes, large towels, and washcloths. We truly didn’t need to bring much at all. The bed was very comfortable, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the room itself was charming. We also enjoyed the game room and coffee bar upstairs, which gave the place a “home away from home” feel. Overall, it was a delightful stay, and we wouldn’t change a thing. Highly recommended!

Our stay at Nicklin House was very pleasant. I was initially concerned about the check-in process, but it turned out to be incredibly easy. We were given a code to access the house and could arrive anytime after 3 p.m., which was very convenient. It was a lovely surprise when I entered the room. There were clean towels, two bathrobes, tissues, earplugs, a moist wipe, slippers, a cute bar of soap, and bottles of water waiting for us. They even provided a picnic bag with glasses, plates, and cutlery, as well as a beach bag with a towel and a mat for the sand. It’s all about the small details that make the experience feel extra special. Having the code to enter the house was a great feature—it didn’t matter what time I returned, which gave me a lot of flexibility. Breakfast was delicious and satisfying: freshly squeezed orange juice, fresh fruit, yogurt, oatmeal, scrambled eggs, coffee, toast, and jelly. The location is perfect—right next to the main street in Leamington and just three blocks from a restaurant I really enjoyed (Taqueria Ajua). It’s also very close to Point Pelee National Park, only about a 15-minute drive. I highly recommend this place.
